Table 4 For ME EQUIPMENT and ME SYSTEMS that are not LIFE-SUPPORTING
The BG5S is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are
controlled. The customer or the user of the BG5S can help prevent electromagnetic interference by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters)
and the BG5S as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications
equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d
in meters (m) can be determined using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is
the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
NOTE 1 It is the manufacturer's responsibility to provide equipment electromagnetic compatibility
information to the customer or user.
NOTE 2 It is the user's responsibility to ensure that a compatible electromagnetic environment for the
equipment can be maintained in order that the device will perform as intended.
Use of this instrument in a dry environment, especially if synthetic materials are present (synthetic clothing,
carpets etc.) may cause damaging static discharges that may cause erroneous results.
Do not use this instrument in close proximity to sources of strong electromagnetic radiation, as these may
interfere with the proper operation.
