2 Precautions
Instruction book, IQAN- G3
Electronic equipment
IQAN-G3 receives and transmits radio frequency energy while switched on.
Remember that interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets, radios, computers
or inadequately shielded equipment.
Follow any special regulations and always switch off the IQAN-G3 wherever
forbidden, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Operation
The device must not be operated in machines and applications where life depends on
the proper operation of this piece of equipment.
Antenna
N
OTICE
Operation without antenna can destroy the radio modem!
The antenna used for the IQAN-G3 must be installed to provide a separation distance
of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
IMPORTANT!
IQAN-G3 devices operate using radio signals and cellular networks. Because of this,
connection cannot be guaranteed at all times under all conditions. Therefore, you
should never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential communications.
Remember, in order to transmit or receive any type of data, the IQAN-G3 must be
switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength.
With the IQAN-G3, an emergency call is not possible.
Loss/theft of the SIM card or the radio modem
To prevent misuse immediately inform your network operator in case of loss or theft of
the SIM card or the radio modem.
Power Supply
Be sure to have a power supply that is capable of peak currents of up to 500 mAmps at
6 V DC. Otherwise the IQAN-G3 will not register with a network provider.
For a list of current consumptions at different supply voltages, see Appendix A, on
page 22.
Disposal
Observe your local/national regulations when disposing the device and its package.
Start-up, maintenance, and diagnostics
For all personnel carrying out installation, commissioning, maintenance or
troubleshooting.
