Industry Canada ICES-003 Compliance
This device meets the CAN ICES-3 (B)/NMB-3(B) standards requirements.
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operaon is subject to
the following two condions:
1. this device may not cause interference, and
2. this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired
operaon of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils
radioexempts de licence. L'exploitaon est autorisée aux deux condions suivantes:
1. l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
2. l'ulisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage
est suscepble d'en compromere le fonconnement.
Under Industry Canada regulaons, this radio transmier may only operate using an antenna of a
type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmier by Industry Canada. To reduce
potenal 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
communicaon.
Conformément à la réglementaon d'Industrie Canada, le présent émeeur radio peut fonconner
avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émeeur par
Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intenon des
autres ulisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope
rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une
communicaon sasfaisante.
