Guidance and manufacturer’s declaration – electromagnetic immunity
The Avant ARC is intended for use in electromagnetic environment specific below. The customer or the user of the Avant
ARC should assure that it is used in such an environment.

Portable and mobile RF
communications equipment should be
used no closer to any part of the Avant
ARC, including cables, than the
recommended separation distance
calculated from the equation applicable
to the frequency of the transmitter.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following
symbol:
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency ranges applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.
a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile
radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy.
To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Avant ARC is used exceeds the applicable RF
compliance level above, the Avant ARC should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is
observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Avant ARC.
b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
