Installation
Mounting
The radio can be placed horizontally on a desk or mounted vertically on a wall. To wall mount the radio,
remove the four bolts/support feet from the back of the housing. Mark the position of the housing, and
reinstall the bolts through the housing to a base plate or other suitable support.
FCC Interference Warning
The FCC requires that manuals pertaining to Class A and Class B computing devices must contain
warnings about possible interference with local residential radio and TV reception. This warning reads as
follows:
Note:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the
user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Safe Handling of CMOS Integrated Circuit Devices
Many of the integrated circuit devices used in communications equipment are of the Complementary
Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) type. Because of their high open circuit impedance, CMOS
integrated circuits are vulnerable to damage from static charges. Care must be taken handling, shipping,
and servicing them and the assemblies in which they are used.
Even though protection devices are provided in CMOS integrated circuit inputs, the protection is effective
only against overvoltage in the hundreds of volts range such as is encountered in an operating system. In
a system, circuit elements distribute static charges and load the CMOS circuits, decreasing the chance of
damage. However, CMOS circuits can be damaged by improper handling of the modules, even in a
system.
