Safety Information
Read this information before using a wearable communicator (PIC).
First introduced in 2000, the Personal Interactive Communicator (PIC) is one
of the most exciting and innovative electronic products ever developed. With it,
you can stay in contact with your family, your office, information services, and
others. For the safe and efficient operation of your communicator (PIC),
observe these guidelines:
Your communicator (PIC) is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) energy.
The communicator (PIC) transmitter operates in the frequency range of 896
MHz to 902 MHz, and the receiver operates in the range of 929 MHz to 942
MHz. It utilizes commonly used frequency modulation (FM) techniques. The
unit transmits at a power level of 0.15W for short periods of time (from 0.016 to
0.160 seconds). Transmissions occur infrequently and usually follow within a
few seconds of a page that has been received or when the unit is first turned on.
In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and in
1992, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), updated the 1982
ANSI Standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF energy.
Over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government
health agencies and industry, after reviewing the available body of research,
