ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)
FCC Information:
This device complies with CFR47 Part 15 of FCC Rules for Class B equipment.
ESTI Information (CE):
This device meets the relevant standards set out in European Standard EN 60945:2002 for
maritime navigation and radio communication equipment and systems. These standards
are intended to provide reasonable protection against interference by other emission
generating products on the boat. Compliance with these standards is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. The installation instructions must be
followed to minimise the potential for interference.
Note:
If shielded cable is not used for the sensor connections this will compromise the
EMC and may invalidate the warranty.
The AA560 console must be installed at least 3ft (1m) away from any transmission
equipment or cables carrying radio signals eg VHF radios, cables and antennas or radar
antennas; and at least 6ft (2m) away from any SSB equipment. AA560 cables must be
installed at least 1.5ft (500mm) away from such items.
