AW900mTR

User’s Manual

IC (Industry Canada) Certification

Labeling requirements for Industry Canada are similar to those of the FCC. A clearly visible label on the outside of the final product enclosure 

must display the following text:

Contains Model AW900MR Radio, IC: 5303A-AW900MR

Integrator is responsible for its product to comply with IC ICES-003 & FCC Part 15, Sub. B - Unintentional Radiators. ICES-003 is the same as FCC 

Part 15 Sub. B and Industry Canada accepts FCC test report or CISPR 22 test report for compliance with ICES-003.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for 

the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that 

the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maxi-

mal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention 

des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse 

pas l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante.

This radio transmitter has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain 

and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum 

gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.

Le présent émetteur radio (identifier le dispositif par son numéro de certification ou son numéro de modèle s’il fait partie du matériel de catégorie 

I) a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d’antenne énumérés ci-dessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal et 

l’impédance requise pour chaque type d’antenne. Les types d’antenne non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est supérieur au gain maximal 

indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour l’exploitation de l’émetteur.

The antenna(s) for this transmitter must not be collocated or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. When using the sector 

antenna to ensure cable attentuation between the radio module and antenna is atleast 1.4dB to maintain compliance to FCC/IC EIRP limits. The 

recommended cable length when using the sector antenna is 10ft of LMR200 cable.

This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device 

may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the 

device.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée 

aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage 

radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.
