1 Safety information
Securely place the printer on a stable surface.
Keep the ventilation inlets and outlets of the embosser free.
Connect the embosser to a grounded power outlet only.
Acoustic Hoods are recommended, for reducing noise level.
BrailleBox is a class A product. In the unlikely event it causes radio interference,
increase the distance between BrailleBox and the device.
1.1 Approvals
FCC Compliance
This device contains FCC ID: PVH0953
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 byturning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to tryto correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
Increase the separation between 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.
IC compliance
This device contains IC: 5325-0953
This device complies with IndustryCanada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
this device maynot cause interference, and this device must accept anyinterference, including interference
that maycause undesired operation of the device. Under IndustryCanada regulations, this radio
transmitter mayonly operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the
transmitter by IndustryCanada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and

2Safety information

its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
necessaryfor successful communication. The device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for
indoor use to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems; the
maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHzand 5470-5725 MHz shall
complywith the e.i.r.p. limit; and the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5825
MHz shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limits
Conformité auxnormes d’IC
Cet appareil est conforme à la(aux) norme(s) RSS sans licence d’IndustryCanada.
Son utilisation est soumise auxdeux conditions suivantes :
Cet appareil ne doit pas causer d’interférences et il doit accepter toutes interférences reçues, y compris
celles susceptibles d’avoir des effets indésirables sur son fonctionnement. Conformément aux
réglementations d’IndustryCanada, cet émetteur radio ne peut fonctionner qu’à l’aide d’une antenne dont
le type et le gain maximal (ou minimal) ont été approuvés pour cet émetteur par IndustryCanada. Pour
réduire le risque d’interférences avec d’autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de
telle sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e) ne soit pas supérieure à celle requise
pour obtenir une communication satisfaisante. Le dispositif de fonctionnement dans la bande 5150-5250
MHz est réservé à une utilisation en intérieur pour réduire le risque d'interférences nuisibles à la co-canal
systèmes mobiles par satellite, le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé pour les appareils dans les bandes
5250-5350 MHz et 5470-5725 MHz doit se conformer à la pire limite, et le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé
pour les appareils dans la bande 5725-5825 MHz doivent être conformes avec le pire limites spécifiées à
point-à-ponctuelles et non point-à-point de fonctionnement selon qu'il convient. Opération dans la bande
5600-5650 MHz n'est pas autorisée au Canada. Haute puissance radars sont désignés comme
utilisateurs principaux(c.-àutilisateurs prioritaires) des bandes 5250-5350 MHzet 5650-5850 MHz et que
ces radars pourraient causer des interférences et / ou des dommages à dispositifs LAN-EL. Cet
équipement respecte les limites d’exposition auxrayonnements IC RSS-102 définies pour un
environnement non contrôlé. Il doit être installé et utilisé en maintenant une distance minimum de 20 cm
entre le radiateur et votre corps.
Bloutooth Qualification
This device contains Bluetooth module qualified as "Controller system" - QD ID 58171
