Vertex Standard VX-7200 Operating Manual page 7

Federal Communication Commission Regulations
The FCC rules require manufacturers to comply with the FCC RF energy exposure
limits for mobile two-way radios before they can be marketed in the U.S. When
two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires us-
ers to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational
requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a label directing
users to specific user awareness information. Your Vertex Standard two-way radio
has a RF exposure product label. Also, this Operating Manual includes informa-
tion and operating instructions required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy
compliance requirements.
Compliance with RF Exposure Standard
Your Vertex Standard two-way radio is designed and tested to comply with a num-
ber of national and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding
human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy. This radio complies
with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/ controlled RF expo-
sure environment at duty factors of up to 50 % talk - 50 % listen and is authorized
by the FCC for occupational use only. In terms of measuring RF energy for com-
pliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, your radio antenna radiates measurable
RF energy only while it is transmitting (during talking), not when it is receiving
(listening) or in standby mode.
Your Vertex Standard two-way radio complies with the following RF energy
exposure standards and guidelines:
