COMMUNICATIONS REGULATION INFORMATION

RF Exposure
Professional installation of this device is required. The radio equipment described in this guide
emits radio frequency energy. Although the power level is low, the concentrated energy from a
directional antenna may pose a health hazard. The following minimum distances apply in both
indoor and outdoor environments.
This device uses a 220 MHz (Part 90) internal antenna and the device must be mounted such that
a Minimum Distance of 20 cm from the top of the device is maintained from the general public.
This internal antenna can be replaced with one of the external antennas shown in the table below.
Only the antennas listed in this section are approved for use with this device.
AE-3010
AE-3020

UL/CSA Notice
The transceiver has been recognized for use the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). The CSA
Certification is in accordance with CSA CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1-03 & ANSI/UL 60950-1-2002.
UL/CSA Conditions of Approval
This device is approved for use in locations that are rated Overvoltage category I through III (IEC
60664-1). Equipment with an impulse withstand voltage corresponding to overvoltage category III is
for use in the fixed installation downstream of, and including the main distribution board, (IEC
60364-4-443).
The transceiver is not acceptable as a standalone unit. It must be mounted within the following
conditions of approval:
1. Installation, operation and maintenance of the transceiver should be in accordance with the
transceiver's installation manual, and the National Electric Code.
2. When installed, this equipment must be protected with an external disconnect device and
branch circuit current protection with a maximum rating of 15A. A circuit breaker rated at 15A
satisfies both requirements.
3. When the unit cannot have the AC supply sourced from an Overvoltage category III
installation, a transient voltage surge suppressor must be installed before the unit to reduce
the peak transient surge rating.
4. Tampering or replacement with non-factory components may adversely affect the safe use of
the transceiver and will void the approval.
