Conditions of Use 

2.1  General Conditions 

The RDL-3100-RMA module is not provided for sale to the general public. The module 
contains a proprietary radio interface and can not be directly connected to any standard 
telecommunications  or  computer  devices.  This  manual  is  provided  as  supplement  to 
technical  and  operational  documentation  and  training  provided  by  Redline  and  its 
agents.  

Any  operation  or  use  of  this  module  in  any  manner  not  expressly  specified  within  this 
manual or approved in writing by Redline (or its agents) is expressly forbidden and voids 
the  users  right  to  operate  the  module.  This  includes,  but  is  not  limited  to,  any 
modification  of  the  module  hardware  or  software,  installation  of  the  module  in  a  non 
approved enclosure, and use with non approved antennas. 

2.2  Country of Use 

Refer  to  the  regulatory  notices  in  this  document  before  installing  or  operating  the 
module.  

Operation of the final product requires a software 'key' that is available exclusively from 
Redline or  its authorized agents. The software key is unique to each module and must 
be  installed  and  activated  before  the  radio  will  operate.  The  key  contains  sufficient 
security  features  that  the  professional  installer  and  operator  can  not  decode,  modify, 
substitute, or otherwise circumvent the operational restrictions imposed by the 'key'. 

The  software  'key'  limits  the  transmit  power,  operating  frequency  range,  and  channel 
bandwidth  per  the  regulator  domain  governing  the  location  where  the  radio  will  be 
deployed.  The  operator  does  not  have  the  option  to  select  the  country  or  regulatory 
region of operation. 

The software 'key' limits the mode of operation as a master or client. The client mode is 
'passive  listener'  and  while  in  this  mode  the  module  can  not  initiate  any  transmission 
without  first  receiving  and  decoding  a  valid  authorization  message  from  the  master.  A 
module  with  a  key  for  client  operation  can  not  be  changed  by  the  installer  to  enable 
master mode operation. A module with a key for master operation can operate in master 
or client (passive) mode.  

Operation in the United States

 

The  RDL-3100-RMA  module  is  certified  with  limited  modular  approval  for  use  as  an 
'intentional radiator' in the United States as device FCC ID: QC8-RDL3100RMA. 

Operation in Canada

 

The  RDL-3100-RMA  module  is  certified  with  limited  modular  approval  for  use  as  an 
'intentional radiator' in the Canada as IC: 4310A-RDL3100RMA.
