NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures,
objects and people.
a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM
and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to
fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the DVMAXX HD
is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the DVMAXX HD should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal perf-
ormance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the DVMAXX HD.
b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
18
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the DVMAXX HD
The DVMAXX HD is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or
the user of the DVMAXX HD can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and
mobile RF communications equipment (Transmitters) and the DVMAXX HD as recommended below, according to the maximum output
power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated
using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures,
