Compliance to FCC US/CANADA

 

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of Part 90 of the FCC Rules and CNR 119 for CANADA. 
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This 
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the 
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.  
 
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful 
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is 
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures : 
-- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. 
-- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. 
-- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. 
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. 
 
 
CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY MAGELLAN COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE 
THE EQUIPMENT.   
 
RF Exposure Warning: During operation, the user may keep a minimum separation distance of 1 meter with the RF devices. 

 

 

Overview 

The modem is the new MAGELLAN UHF Radio Link working in the 450-470MHz frequency range. This equipment converts data 
from a serial link into a radio frame to be sent to a similar piece of equipment. 
The operating parameters of these modems (serial link, radio management…) can be updated through commands on the serial 
link.  
The products are available in a metallic IP65 case with an external antenna. 

Product Power supply

 

To perform wiring of these products, the bottom part of the housing  has to be opened by unscrewing the four stainless steel 
screws on radiator/antenna side.  
 
 

 

 
The U-Link TRx must be supplied from a DC voltage source. The input DC power voltage range is 9V up to 28V, and the total 
power consumption is less than 1.5A under 12V at full RF power with an antenna connected on the RF port output.
