Important Notice

Because of the nature of wireless communication, transmission and reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may
be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors), or be totally lost. Significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices
such as the Viper SC are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network. Viper SC should not be used in
situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage of any kind to the user or any other party,
including but not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. CalAmp accepts no responsibility for damages of any
kind resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or received using Viper SC, or for the failure of Viper SC to transmit
or receive such data.

RF Exposure Compliance Requirements
The Viper SC radio is intended for use in the Industrial Monitoring and Control and SCADA markets.
The Viper SC unit must be professionally installed and must ensure a minimum separation distance
listed in the table below between the radiating structure and any person. An antenna mounted on a
pole or tower is the typical installation and in rare instances, a 1/2-wave whip antenna is used.
It is the responsibility of the user to guarantee compliance with the FCC MPE regulations when operating this device in a way
other than described above. The installer of this equipment must ensure the antenna is located or pointed such that it does
not emit an RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population.
Viper SC uses a low power radio frequency transmitter. The concentrated energy from an antenna may pose a health
hazard. People should not be in front of the antenna when the transmitter is operating.
Recommended safety guidelines for the human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy are contained in the
Canadian Safety Code 6 (available from Health Canada), the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Bulletin 65 and the
Council of the European Union's Recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of the general public to
electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz) (1999/519/EC).
