Guidelines:
• User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users.
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
Instructions:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk or send data),
assert the PTT input pin. To receive calls, un-assert the PTT input. Transmitting 50% of the time,
or less, is important because this radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when
transmitting (in terms of
measuring for standards compliance).
• Transmit only when people are at least the recommended minimum lateral distance away, as
shown in Table 1, from a properly installed according to installation instructions, externally-
mounted antenna.
NOTE - Table 1 lists the recommended minimum lateral distance for bystanders in an
uncontrolled environment from transmitting types of antennas (i.e., monopoles over a ground
plane, or dipoles) at several different ranges of rated radio power for mobile radios installed on a
vehicle.

plane antenna:

Antennas
• Install antennas taking into account the recommended minimum lateral distances listed above.
These antenna installation guidelines are limited to antennas with appropriate ground planes. The
antenna installation should additionally be in accordance with:
a.) The requirements of the antenna manufacturer/supplier.
b.) Instructions in this manual including minimum antenna cable lengths.
c.) Antennas other than those shown in Table 1 must be tested with the DTXM module
for RF exposure compliance in the environment in which it is to be used per the FCC’s
OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01 or Industry Canada RSS-102.
• Use only a UHF quarterwave antenna or equivalent antenna or other antennas as described
above. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may
violate FCC regulations.
