Certifications
CE Compliance
The TS-4032EN, TS-2030EN, TS-1327EN and TS-9720EN series of cameras have been certified to conform to the
requirements of Council Directive 89/336/EC for electromagnetic compatibility and to comply with the
following European Standards:
Emissions: EN 55022A: 1998 + A1: 2000 + A2: 2003
Immunity: EN55024: 1998 + A1: 2001 + A2: 2003
All JAI products bearing the CE mark have been declared to be in conformance with the applicable EEC Council
Directives. However, certain factory-installed options or customer-requested modifications may compromise
electromagnetic compatibility and affect CE compliance. Please note that the use of interconnect cables that
are not properly grounded and shielded may affect CE compliance.
Contact JAI Applications Engineering Department for further information regarding CE compliance.
FCC
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area may cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his
own expense.
