Electromagnetic Compatibility EMC
Description
The term Electromagnetic Compatibility is taken to mean the capability of the product to
function smoothly in an environment where electromagnetic radiation and electrostatic
discharges are present, and without causing electromagnetic disturbances to other equip-
ment.
Warning
Electromagnetic radiation can cause disturbances in other equipment.
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force in this
respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibility that other equipment
may be disturbed.
Caution
There is a risk that disturbances may be caused in other equipment if the product is used in
conjunction with accessories from other manufacturers, for example field computers,
personal computers, two-way radios, non-standard cables or external batteries.
Precautions:
Use only the equipment and accessories recommended by Leica Geosystems.
When combined with the product, they meet the strict requirements stipulated by the guide-
lines and standards. When using computers and two-way radios, pay attention to the infor-
mation about electromagnetic compatibility provided by the manufacturer.
Caution
Disturbances caused by electromagnetic radiation can result in erroneous measurements.
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force in this
respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibility that the product may
be disturbed by very intense electromagnetic radiation, for example, near radio transmitters,
two-way radios or diesel generators.
Precautions:
Check the plausibility of results obtained under these conditions.
