For European Community Users 0
The manufacturer complies with Directive 2002/96/EC of The European Parliament, and of The Council of 27 January 2003 on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE).
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment 0
!
CAUTION:
This device requires the extraction and use of natural resources for its production. It may contain hazardous substances that could impact health and the environment, if not properly disposed.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in our environment and to diminish the pressure on the natural resources, it is encouraged to use the appropriate procedures for product disposal. Those procedures will reuse or recycle most of the materials of the product being disposed of.
The crossed out wheeled bin symbol indicates the product should not be disposed of along with municipal waste and encourages the appropriate procedure for device disposal.
If more information is needed on the collection, reuse, and recycling systems, contact the local or regional waste administration.
Electrically Powered Devices 0
Most manufacturers of medical devices adhere to the IEC 601-1-2 standard. Pacemakers and hearing aids are considered electrically powered devices.This standard requires devices to operate properly in an EM Field with a strength of 3V/m over a frequency range of 26 to 1000MHz. The maximum allowable field strength emitted by the Dolphin 6000 device is
0.3V/m according to Subpart B of Part 1 of the FCC rules. The RF from the Dolphin 6000 device has no effect on medical devices that meet the IEC specification.
Microwaves 0
The radio in the Dolphin 6000 RF device operates on the same frequency band as a microwave oven. If a microwave is used within range of the Dolphin 6000 RF device, a performance degradation in the wireless network may be noticeable. The microwave and wireless network will continue to function.

Working with GSM/GPRS/EDGE
Overview 0
The Dolphin 6000 device is designed with an integrated, embedded GSM/GPRS/EDGE penta-band radio module for WWAN communication.
GSM Global System for Mobile communications, GSM is an open, non-proprietary
wireless WAN system.
GPRS General Packet Radio Service, GPRS is a non-voice service that allows
packet-switched data to be instantly sent and received across mobile telephone networks.
EDGE E-GPRS is a non-voice service that allows packet-switched data to be instantly
sent and received across mobile telephone networks at a higher data rate than standard GPRS.
Requirements 0
Using GSM/GPRS/EDGE requires:
Network subscription to a GSM/GPRS/EDGE network (must know what service providers are in
the area)
An installed SIM card that has been activated by the network service provider (see SIM Card
Installation on page 9-2).

NOTE
:
Dolphin 6000 devices with integrated GSM/GPRS/EDGE radios are best for the following two-way voice and data communications:
Voice: GSM voice data (dial-up)
Data: Available speed depends on the wireless network carrier and their supported packet-data
technology and network conditions.
GPRS Class 10: data transmission max. 85.6 kbps (DL), max. 42.8 kbps (UL)
EDGE (E-GPRS) Class 10: data transmission max. 237 Kbps (DL), max. 118 kbps (UL)
GSM radio for voice communication and data communication can be used, but not at same time. If making a voice call, the device cannot send data. If sending data, the device cannot make voice calls.
SIM Card Installation 0
Subscriber Information Module, a SIM card contains subscriber's personal information, GSM/GPRS radio settings, security keys, contacts, etc. SIM cards can be installed in compatible mobile devices that can switch devices without losing personal and setup information.
