Bluetooth Wireless Technology

Precautions concerning Bluetooth wireless technology
• Use of this technology must be authorized according to telecommunications regulations of the
country where the instrument is being used. Contact your Sokkia agent in advance.
• Sokkia is not liable for the content of any transmission nor any content related thereto. When
communicating important data, run tests beforehand to ascertain that communication is operating
normally.
• Do not divulge the content of any transmission to any third party.
Radio interference when using Bluetooth technology
Bluetooth communication with the SRX uses the 2.4 GHz frequency band. This is the same band used
by industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) equipment such as microwaves, portable premises radio
equipment (license required) and portable specified low-power radio equipment (license-exempt)
used in factory production lines, etc.
• Before starting transmission, check that operation will not take place within the vicinity of portable
premises radio equipment or specified low-power radio equipment.
• In the case that the instrument causes radio interference with portable premises radio equipment,
terminate the connection immediately and take measures to prevent further interference (e.g.
connect using an interface cable).
• In the case that the instrument causes radio interference with portable specified low-power radio
equipment, contact your Sokkia agent.
Although a radio station license is not required for this instrument, bear in mind the following points
when using Bluetooth technology for communication.
● Do not use within the vicinity of the following:
•Industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) equipment such as microwaves and pacemakers.
• portable premises radio equipment (license required) used in factory production lines etc.
• portable specified low-power radio equipment (license-exempt)
•IEEE802.11b/IEEE802.11g standard wireless LAN devices
The above devices use the same frequency band as Bluetooth communications. As a result, using
the SRX within proximity to the above devices may result in interference causing communication
failure or reduction of transmission speed.
• Refrain from using the SRX within proximity to televisions and radios
Televisions and radios use a different frequency band to Bluetooth communications.
However, even if the SRX is used within proximity to the above equipment with no adverse effects with
regard to transmission, moving a Bluetooth-compatible device (including the SRX) closer to said
equipment may result in electronic noise in sound or images.
