Multi Control Head

The multi control head option allows separate, remotely operated control heads to operate and
control the radio. For example, a fire truck could have a control head located in the cab and on the
rear of the truck so that the radio could be operated from outside the vehicle.
1.3 Motorcycle Configurations - Mid Power
NOTE: The motorcycle configurations are not applicable for O9 control heads.
See Chapter 5: Motorcycle Radio Installation for further information.
1.4

Base/Control Stations

NOTE: The base/control station option is not applicable for O9 control heads.
If mobile radio equipment is installed at a fixed location and operated as a control station or as a
fixed unit, the antenna installation must comply with the following requirements in order to ensure
optimal performance and compliance with the RF energy exposure limits in the standards and
guidelines listed in the Safety Manual (refer to related publications):
• The antenna should be mounted outside the building on the roof or a tower if at all possible.
• As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licensee to manage the
site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and may require additional
compliance actions such as site survey measurements, signage, and site access restrictions in
order to ensure that exposure limits are not exceeded.
