•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 radiates radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, cautions and warnings contained in this user’s guide, 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:
oReorient this device or move it away from the equipment experiencing interference.
oIf connected to an AC outlet, move this device to an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the device experiencing interference is connected.
oConsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
•CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by DRS Technologies, Inc.
could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
•This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two condition:
oThis device may not cause harmful interference, and
oThis device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
•For body-worn operation, this computer has been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines set forth for an uncontrolled environment when used with ARMOR
supplied accessories, or accessories designed specifically for this product. Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
•When using a docking station and external antenna with the WLAN, the antenna should
have an impedance of 50 ohms and a gain not to exceed +5 dBi. To comply with FCC
RF exposure requirements, separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 in.) should be
maintained between the external antenna and all persons.
•Operation within the 5.15–5.25 GHz band is restricted to indoors operations.

•This Class B digital apparatus complies with Industry Canada ICES-003, Issue 4 June 7,
2004 and license-exempt RSS standards RSS-210, Issue No 8 (December 2010), RSS-
132 Issue No. 2 (September 2005), and RSS-133 Issue No. 5 (February 2009).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
•Cet appareil numérique de classe B est conforme à Industrie Canada ICES-003, numéro
4 Juin 7, 2004 et exempts de licence normes RSS RSS-210, Issue n ° 8 (Décembre
2010), CNR-132 fascicule n o 2 (Septembre 2005), et RSS-133 fascicule n ° 5 (Février
2009). Son fonctionnement est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) cet appareil
ne peut pas provoquer d'interférences et (2) cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence
pouvant causer un fonctionnement indésirable de l'appareil.
•This product is restricted to indoor use in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range. Industry
Canada requires this product to be used indoors to reduce the potential for harmful
interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
•Operation in the 2.4 GHz band: To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this
device is intended to be operated indoors and away from windows to provide maximum
shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to
licensing.
•Opération dans la bande 2,4 GHz:Pour empêcher que cet appareil cause du brouillage
au service faisant l'objet d'une licence, il doit être utilisé a l'intérieur et devrait être placé
loin des fenêtres afin de fournir un écran de blindage maximal. Si le matériel (ou son
antenne d'émission) est installé à l'extérieur, il doit faire l'objet d'une licence.
•Be advised that high-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of
the bands 5250–5350 MHz and 5650–5850 MHz and that these radars could cause
interference and/or damage to WLAN devices.
•Under Industry Canada regulations, the WLAN radio transmitter may only operated
using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by
Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type
and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP)
is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
•This radio transmitter 7888B-622ANH has been approved by Industry Canada to operate
with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required
antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this
list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly
prohibited for use with this device.
oMobile Mark SMW-301-xxxx( surface mount), MGW-301-xxxx (magnetic
mount)radome antennas
oGain: +5dBi in 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands
oImpedance: 50 ohm

WARNING!
Do not drop or mishandle the batteries, immerse them in water, or
subject them to high heat. Doing so could increase the risk of
explosion or leakage, and possibly cause injury.
WARNING!
The lithium-
ion batteries used in this equipment contain material
that is hazardous to your health. If battery contents come in contact
with the eyes, IMMEDIATELY flush the affected area with clean
water for 15 minutes and have someone else summon medical
attention for you. Unaffected persons should assist the affected
individual in the vital first flushing of the eyes.
WARNING!
If battery material comes in contact with the skin, flush the affected
area with clean water and seek immediate medical treatment.
WARNING!
Disposed lithium-ion batteries that are not fully discharged contain
active salts that can result in an explosion if suddenly exposed to
moisture or water in the environment. To prevent possible injury to
someone finding the battery, please ensure it is fully discharged
before disposing in a domestic or commercial garbage receptacle.

CAUTION!
Recharging the battery must only be carried out in a non-
hazardous area using the supplied AC adapter. The definition of
hazardous areas can be found in Standard EN 60079-10.
CAUTION!
DO NOT use this unit in classified areas unsuitable for its security
ratings.
NE PAS UTILISER CETTE UNITÉ EN ZONES AINSI

CAUTION!
When using IEEE 802.11a wireless LAN [in Canada], this product is
restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15- to 5.25-
GHz frequency range. Industry Canada requires this product to be
used indoors for the frequency range of 5.15 GHz to 5.25 GHz to
reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile
satellite systems. High power radar is allocated as the primary
user of the 5.25- to 5.35-GHz and 5.65 to 5.85-GHz bands. These
radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage to this
device.
