They are highlighted for emphasis, as in this example, and are placed immediately after the relevant text. CAUTION: Cautions give information which, if strictly followed, will prevent damage to equipment or other goods. They are boxed for emphasis, as in this example, and are placed immediately preceding the point at which the reader requires them. WARNING: Warnings give information which, if strictly observed, will prevent personal injury or death, or damage to personal property or the environment. They are boxed and shaded for emphasis, as in this example, and are placed immediately preceding the point at which the reader requires them. 2. ATTENTION! DO NOT use right-angle connectors or adapters on the RF Power Out cable assemblies. Right-angle connectors may have significant RF power loss at the operating frequencies of this system. 3. FOR ALL BMS TRANSMITTERS – Operation of a BMS transmitter product generally requires a license. It is the responsibility of the user to obtain all required operating licenses. 4. ONLY FOR PRODUCTS AWAITING FCC CERTIFICATION – This device has not been authorized as required by the rules of the US Federal Communications Commission. This device is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, in the US until authorization is obtained. Acceptance Test Procedure (ATP) test data results by product serial number are typically shipped with all units and indicate the equipment to be operating within advertised specifications. Contact BMS to request this data. Read and Follow Instructions! All safety and operating instructions should be read before this product is operated. All operating and use instructions should be followed. This manual should be retained for future reference. EMC Compliance – This equipment is certified to the EMC requirements detailed in the technical specifications. To maintain this certification, only use the cables supplied or if in doubt contact BMS Customer Service. RF Exposure Information – For body worn operation, the device has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions device a minimum of 7.9” (20 cm) from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

RF Exposure Discussion for BMS Heli-Coder 4 (HC4) Page 1 of 2 Broadcast Microwave Services, Inc. The Heli-Coder 4 (HC4) is built to best commercial practices and is meant for use in a professional environment. It is assumed that users are familiar with basic RF equipment operation and safety concepts. The following discussion is offered with the recommendation that individuals and organizations establish an RF Safety and Awareness program based on their combination of hardware and usage environment. The FCC reference document is OET Bulletin 65 and can be viewed here; http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins/oet65/oet65.pdf Link valid as of 2/25/2014 The OET 65 document sets maximum permitted exposure (MPE) and is widely cited within the U. S. and Canada. It is divided into two categories, “controlled” and “uncontrolled” environment. BMS recommends users comply with limits for the uncontrolled environment. The limit table from FCC OET Bulletin 65 is reproduced below. X axis is frequency and Y axis is mW/cm². Using different combinations of frequency, output power, antenna type, etc. results in different MPE limits. Limit your exposure by raising awareness and using some common sense rules: • Default to low power, using hi-power only as required. • Never stand in front of a transmitting directional antenna. • Limit transmission duty cycles (turn on/off as needed). RF Exposure Discussion for BMS Heli-Coder 4 (HC4) Page 2 of 2 Broadcast Microwave Services, Inc. The safe working distance from a transmitting antenna may be calculated from the relationship: • • In which D = safe working distance (meters) • PT = transmitter or combiner power output (watts) • GR = antenna gain ratio = anti log (gain dBi ÷10) • W = power density (watts/square meter) [1 mW/cm 2 = 10 W/m 2 ] MPE DISTANCE CALCULATOR FOR COMMON ANTENNAS ‐ DISTANCE IN INCHES TRANSMITTER OUTPUT (w)10 ANTENNA GAIN dBi 02469111422 UNCONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT: MINIMUM PERMISSABLE DISTANCE INCHES (1.005 mW/cm^2)11.0813.9517.5622.1031.2239.3155.52 139.47 CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT: MINIMUM PERMISSABLE DISTANCE INCHES (5.005 mW/cm^2)4.966.257.879.9113.9917.6124.8862.50 Table 1: Example MPE distances for a 10W transmitter
