Regulatory Compliance Statements Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. RF Exposure Information This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. This device complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement 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. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the distance between the equipment and the receiver. • Connect the equipment to 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. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment. Europe-European Union Notice Radio products with the CE alert marking comply with the R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC) issued by the Commission of the European Community. Compliance with this directive implies conformity to the following European Norms (in brackets are the equivalent international standards). • EN 60950-1 (IEC60950-1) - Product Safety • EN 300 328 Technical requirement for radio equipment • ETS 301 489 General EMC requirements for radio equipment. Products that contain the radio transmitter are labeled with CE alert marking and may also carry the CE logo. Safety Use the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and the PWS-430. • Do not attempt to service the PWS-430 yourself. Always follow installation instructions closely. • Be sure that nothing rests on the AC adapter's power cable and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on. • Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter while it is inside a carrying case. • Use only the AC adapter, power cord, and batteries that are approved for use with this PWS-430. Use of another type of battery or AC adapter may cause risk of fire or explosion. • If you use an extension cable with the AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable. • When you move the PWS-430 between environments with very different temperature and/or humidity ranges, condensation may form on or within the PWS-430. To avoid damaging the PWS-430, allow sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before using the PWS-430. • When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain relief loop, not on the cable itself. As you pull out the connector, keep it evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable make sure both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned. Battery Safety • There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type. • Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. • Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode. Check with local authorities for disposal instructions. Notices This unit is equipped with a battery pack and backup battery. It is possible that the PWS-430 may not power-on due to battery discharge as a result of storage. In the above situation, insert the PWS-430 into the cradle and connect the AC adapter to the cradle. Recharge the unit for 3 hours in order to fully charge its battery. The backup battery will recharge from external power when the AC adapter is connected. Battery charge notice It is important to consider the environment temperature whenever you are charging the Lithium-Ion battery pack. The process is most efficient at normal room temperature or slightly cooler. It is essential that you charge batteries within the stated range of 0°C to 50°C. Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and shorten their charging life cycle. Storage and safety notice Although charged Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity may be depleted due to build up of internal resistance. If this happens they will require recharging prior to use. Lithium-Ion batteries may be stored at temperatures betwe…

RF Exposure Introduction Requirements Three different categories of transmitters are defined by the FCC in OET Bulletin 65. These categories are fixed installation, mobile and portable and are defined as follows:  Fixed installation: Fixed location means that the device, including its antenna, is physically secured at a permanent location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. Additionally, distance to humans form the antenna is maintained to at least 2 meters.  Mobile Devices: A mobile device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used in other than fixed locations and to be generally used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters is normally maintained between the transmitter’s radiating structures and the body of the user or nearby persons. Transmitters designed to be used by consumers or workers that can be easily re-located, such as a wireless modem operating in a laptop computer, are considered mobile devices if they meet the 20 centimeter separation requirement. The FCC rules for evaluating mobile devices for RF compliance are found in 47 CFR 2.1091.  Portable Devices: A portable device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used so that the radiating structure(s) of the device is/are within 20 centimeters of the body of the user. Portable device requirements are found in Section 2.1093 of the FCC’s Rules (47 CFR 2.1093) SPORTON INTERNATIONAL INC.

The two categories defined are Occupational/Controlled Exposure and General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure. These two categories are defined as follows:  Occupational/controlled Exposure: In general, occupational/controlled exposure limits are applicable to situation in which persons are exposed as a consequence of their employment, who have been made fully aware of the potential for exposure. Awareness of the potential for RF exposure in a workplace or similar environment can be provided through specific training as part of a RF safety program. If appropriate, warning signs and labels can also be used to establish such awareness by providing prominent information on the risk of potential exposure and instructions on methods to minimize such exposure risks.  General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure: The general population / uncontrolled exposure limits are applicable to situations in which the general public may be exposed or in which persons who are exposed as a consequence of their employment may not be made ful…
