Safety Notice
I. THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH FCC RULES PART 15. OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE
FOLLOWING TWO CONDITONS:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of the device
II. 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 is likely to cause harmful interference in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
III. In order to comply with the FCC/IC adopted RF exposure requirements, this transmission system will
be installed by a professional installer. Installation of all antennas must be performed in a manner that
will provide at least 2.4 feet clearance from the front radiating aperture, to any member of the public.
IV. This is NOT an intrinsically safe device. Do not take into an area where intrinsic safety is required.
Bodily harm may result if warning is ignored.
V. DO NOT OPERATE TRANSMITTER OR RECEIVER WITHOUT ANTENNAS CONNECTED TO
ANTENNA PORTS. Failure to do so will result in damage to the unit and void the warranty.
VI. DO NOT OPERATE THE SYSTEM WHEN the transmitter and receiver are closer than 10 feet to
each other. The devices may not work properly and permanent damage can occur.
VII. The system has been certified by the FCC for use with other products without any further certification
(as per FCC section 2.1091).

Pre-Installation
Site Evaluation
The following must be determined prior to installation:
Power Source
The transmitter, receiver and corner-mount camera will each require a power source.
Ensure there is a 115 Volt electrical outlet available on the rooftop of the elevator cab;
this outlet will power both the transmitter and corner-mount camera.
A 115 Volt AC electrical outlet will also be required at the receiver location in the pit.
Cabling routes
Hardwiring the video cable from the receiver to your monitoring location will be required;
consider this in determining whether your receiver will be mounted in the elevator pit
or in the mechanical penthouse.
Clearances
The transmitter and receiver location must be clear of any moving mechanisms including but not
limited to traveling cable, counter-weight, cabling trough, guide rails, brakes, door mechanics,
sensors and safety devices.
Line-of-Sight
Consider the path that the wireless video will travel between the transmitter and receiver.
Line-of –sight is defined as a clear and unobstructed view between the transmitter and receiver.
This will determine where you will mount the transmitter (roof or under-carriage of elevator cab)
and the receiver (mechanical penthouse or elevator pit).
Every elevator installation is unique – These guidelines may or may not apply to your particular application.
