Regulatory Notices
To comply with FCC/IC RF exposure limits for general
population/uncontrolled exposure, the antenna(s)
used for this transmitter must be installed to provide
a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all
persons and must not be co-located or operated in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter..
This device complies with Industry Canada’s licence-
exempt RSSs and Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions:
1 . This device may not cause harmful interference,
and
2 . This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.
Conditions or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
CAN ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B)
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio
transmitter may only operate using an antenna of
a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for
the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce radio
interference to other users, the antenna type and
its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than
that necessary for successful communication.

Service & Repairs
The unit is notserviceable by the user.
WARNING: To assure product SAFETY
and RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance
and adjustment should be performed by a
DeWALT factory service center or a DeWALT
authorized service center. Always use
identical replacementparts.
Cleaning
ALWAYS unplug the unit when cleaning.
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air
vents with clean, dry air at least once a week.
To minimize the risk of eye injury, always
wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection
when performingthis.
WARNING: Never use solvents or other
harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-
metallic parts of the product. These
chemicals may weaken the plastic materials
used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened
only with water and mild soap. Never let any
Safety Information
WARNING:
• When installing the unit, always be
sure it is securely mounted.
-If using an s-hook to suspend from
mounting hook, use s-hook with
spring loaded safety latches.
-if mounting unit to the tripod, check
that the legs are firmly set and that
the tripod is wobble free.
• Pull by the plug rather than the cord
when disconnecting. This will reduce
the risk of damage to the electric plug
andcord.
• Make sure that the power and
ethernet cords are positioned so
that they will not be tripped over,
or otherwise subjected to damage
orstress.
Grounded Outlet Ungrounded Outlet with Adaptor
• The power cable must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is nearby, properly
installed, and grounded in accordance with
all local codes andordinances.The unit is for
use on a nominal 120V circuit and should be
connected to a grounded outlet. Atemporary
adaptor, always being held in place by a screw,
may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
outlet if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The adaptor should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear,
lug, and the like, extending from the adaptor
must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
• An extension cord must have adequate
wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge)
for safety. The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable.
For example, a 16 gauge wire has more capacity
than an 18 gauge wire. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. When using more than
one extension to make up the total length, be
sure each individual extension contains at least
