This device has been approved for both closed containers and open-
air environments with the following limitations:
Closed Containers: For installations utilizing a tilt during installa-
tion: This device is limited to installation in a completely enclosed
container made of metal, concrete or reinforced fiberglass to pre-
vent RF emissions, which can otherwise interfere with aeronauti-
cal navigation, the maximum approved tilt angle is 10°.
Open Air Environment: For operation outside of closed vessels,
the following condition must be fulfilled: This device shall be
installed and maintained to ensure a vertically downward orienta-
tion of the transmit antenna's main beam. Furthermore, the use of
any mechanism that does not allow the main beam of the transmit-
ter to be mounted vertically downward is prohibited.
Operation of the instrument with hygienically encapsulated horn
antenna ø 48 mm is only permitted within closed vessels.
The installation of the LPR/TLPR device shall be done by trained
installers, in strict compliance with the manufacture's instructions.
This device shall be installed only at fixed locations. The LPR device
shall not operate while being moved or while inside a moving con-
tainer.
Hand-held applications are prohibited.
Marketing to residential consumers is prohibited.
The use of this device is on a "no-interference, no-protection" basis.
That ist, the user shall accept operatings of high-powered radaar in
the same frequency band which may interfere with or damage this
device.
However, devices found to interfere with primary licensing operations
will be required to be removed at the user's expense.
The installer/user of this device shall ensure that it is at least 10 km
from the Dominion Astrophysical Radio Observatory (DRAO) near
Penticton, British Columbia. The coordinates of the DRAO are latitude
49°19'15" N and longitude 119°37'12"W. For devices not meeting
this 10 km separation (e.g., those in the Okanagan Valley, British Co-
lumbia,) the installer/user must coordinate with, and obtain the written
concurrence of, the Director of the DRAO before the equipment can
be installed or operated. The Director of the DRAO may be contacted
