3 Conformity

Addressees of in󰘵ructions mu󰘵:

- Make sure that the Radio Remote Control works within the frequency band permitted in the
country where it is used.

- Make sure that the Radio Remote Control works correctly, in compliance with the applicable
󰘵andards in the relevant country.

- Not modify the Radio Remote Control conformity, by performing modi󰘰cations or technical
operations that change its operation.

During training on or usage of Autec Radio Remote Controls, local provisions imposing the
conservation of product conformity with local 󰘵andards mu󰘵 be respected, as well as specific
󰘵andards related to safety in the use of Radio Remote Controls or electrical devices, both in
the working environment or outside of it.

3.1 EC conformity

According to the regulations in force in the European Union, one of the
requirements for a Radio Remote Control to be compliant with the EC
conformity is to work at one of the permitted frequencies. If it does not, the
Radio Remote Control cannot be considered compliant.
Each Dynamic+P series' Radio Remote Control working in the 863-870MHz
frequency band complies with the Directive 2014/53/EU (RED) and its
essential requirements.
Each Radio Remote Control also complies with the harmonised 󰘵andards
li󰘵ed in the EU Declaration of Conformity, that are in force and applicable
when the Radio Remote Control is put on the market.
Autec Radio Remote Control's EU Declaration of Conformity is provided
as an attachment with the Radio Remote Control.

4 Frequencies

Dynamic+P series' Radio Remote Controls can work in two different frequency bands: 863­870MHz or 915-928MHz.

The Radio Remote Controls' working frequency is defined by market-specific laws
and 󰘵andards. In order for the sy󰘵em “Machine+Radio Remote Control” to be
compliant and therefore to be used, these laws and 󰘵andards mu󰘵 be respected:
if they are not, the Radio Remote Control cannot and mu󰘵 not be used.

Autec cannot be held responsible if the Radio Remote Control is set with frequencies
that are forbidden in the country of use.

4.1 Frequency band 863-870MHz

4.1.1 Frequencies

The radio link between the Units of Autec Dynamic+P series Radio Remote Controls is e󰘵ablished
at one of the frequencies permitted by the European 󰘵andards in force when the sy󰘵em is put
on the market.

Frequencies used 128

RF power <25mW ERP

Channel spacing 50kHz

The Units communicate with one another in dynamic mode, that is:

- They use a working frequency in the 863-870MHz band

- They check that the frequency is free before using it

- They continually change the working frequency to maintain the radio link even when

interference occurs.

4.1.2 Countries of usage

Dynamic+P series' Radio Remote Controls working in the 863-870MHz frequency band can
be used within the EU (European Union) and the EFTA (European Free Trade Association).
Check on the technical data plate of the Units in which markets the Radio Remote Control can
be used.

LIUDP1001_eng-00 AUTEC

17

4.2 Frequency band 915-928MHz

4.2.1 Frequencies

The radio link between the Units of Autec Dynamic+P series Radio Remote Controls is e󰘵ablished
at one of the frequencies permitted by the USA, Canadian and Au󰘵ralian 󰘵andards in force
when the sy󰘵em is put on the market.

Frequencies used 256

RF power meets FCC and IC requirements

Channel spacing 50kHz

The Units communicate with one another in dynamic mode, that is:

- They use a working frequency in the 915-928MHz

- They check that the frequency is free before using it

- They continually change the working frequency to maintain the radio link even when

interference occurs.

4.2.2 Countries of usage
