Regulatory notice
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
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 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.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance 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
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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 50 cm between the radiator & your body.
8 LIBRA5816SeriesUserManual
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
The availability of some specific channels and/or operational frequency bands are country
dependent and are firmware programmed at the factory to match the intended destination.
The firmware setting is not accessible by the end user.
Industry Canada statement
This device complies with RSS-210 of the Industry Canada 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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 50 cm between the radiator & your body.
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 16.5
dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada.
The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
! Caution: This product is designed specific for point to point operation, the point to multi
point operation is prohibited.
Other notices
Changes or modifications to the equipment not expressly approved by GIL Technology could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Appropriately shielded remote I/O serial cable with the metal connector shell and cable shield
properly connected to chassis ground shall be used to reduce the radio frequency interference.
All antenna installation work shall be carried out by a knowledgeable and professional installer. The
parts in some LIBRA5816 versions are Imperial sizes – inches and fractions of an inch. Do not attempt
to mix Imperial nuts, bolts and screws with similar metric hardware. This will strip the threads.
