Point Controller for instructions on how to install and configure Access Points on a

Harmony network.

guarantee that the antenna is operated at least 20 centimeters from any person. This

is necessary to insure that the product is operated in accordance with the RF

Guidelines for Human Exposure which have been adopted by the Federal

Communications Commission.
