WARNING:

 Do not cut open, incinerate, heat above 85°C 

(185°F), or recharge the lithium batteries. The batteries may 
explode if the mote is exposed to extreme heat or conditions 
that could damage or destroy the battery cases. Do not mix 
battery types, either by chemistry or age; batteries may rupture 
or explode. Do not dispose of the logger or batteries in fire. Do 
not expose the contents of the batteries to water. Dispose of 
the batteries according to local regulations for lithium 
batteries.

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

 

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide 
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and 
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a 
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user 
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures: 

 

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna 

 

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver 

 

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected 

 

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help 

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device 
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 

FCC Caution: 

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. 

Industry Canada Statements

 

This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and 
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. 

Avis de conformité pour l’Industrie Canada 

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) 
l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le 
fonctionnement. 

To comply with FCC and Industry Canada RF radiation exposure limits for general population, the logger must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from 
all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
