Important Notice
ELPRO products are designed to be used in industrial environments by experienced industrial engineering
personnel with adequate knowledge of safety design considerations.
ELPRO radio products are used on unprotected license-free radio bands with radio noise and interference. The
products are designed to operate in the presence of noise and interference. However, in an extreme cases radio
noise and interference could cause product operation delays or operation failure. As with all industrial electronic
products, ELPRO products can fail in a variety of modes due to misuse, age, or malfunction. We recommend that
users and designers design systems using design techniques intended to prevent personal injury or damage during
product operation, and provide failure tolerant systems to prevent personal injury or damage in the event of product
failure. Designers must warn users of the equipment or systems if adequate protection against failure has not been
included in the system design. Designers must include this Important Notice in operating procedures and system
manuals.
These products should not be used in non-industrial applications or life-support systems without first consulting
ELPRO.
1. A radio license is not required in some countries, provided the module is installed using the aerial and
equipment configuration described in the 245U-E Installation Guide. Check with your local distributor for
further information on regulations.
2. Operation is authorized by the radio frequency regulatory authority in your country on a non-protection basis.
Although all care is taken in the design of these units, there is no responsibility taken for sources of external
interference. Systems should be designed to be tolerant of these operational delays.
3. To avoid the risk of electrocution, the aerial, aerial cable, serial cables and all terminals of the 245U-E module
should be electrically protected. To provide maximum surge and lightning protection, the module should be
connected to a suitable earth and the aerial, aerial cable, serial cables and the module should be installed as
recommended in the Installation Guide.
4. To avoid accidents during maintenance or adjustment of remotely controlled equipment, all equipment should
be first disconnected from the 245U-E module during these adjustments. Equipment should carry clear
markings to indicate remote or automatic operation. For example, “This equipment is remotely controlled and
