1 Safety information

Securely place the printer on a stable surface.

Keep the ventilation inlets and outlets of the embosser free. Connect the embosser to a grounded power outlet only.

Acoustic Hoods are recommended, for reducing noise level.

BrailleBox is a class A product. In the unlikely event it causes radio interference, increase the distance between BrailleBox and the device.

1.1 Approvals

FCC Compliance

This device contains FCC ID: PVH0953

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 and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. 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 to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

Increase the separation between equipment and receiver

Connect the equipment into 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.

IC compliance

This device contains IC: 5325-0953

This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

this device may not cause interference, and this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and

2Safety information

its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. The device for operation in the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor use to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems; the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limit; and the maximum antenna gain permitted for devices in the band 5725-5825 MHz shall comply with the e.i.r.p. limits

Conformité aux normes d’IC

Cet appareil est conforme à la(aux) norme(s) RSS sans licence d’Industry Canada.

Son utilisation est soumise aux deux conditions suivantes :

Cet appareil ne doit pas causer d’interférences et il doit accepter toutes interférences reçues, y compris celles susceptibles d’avoir des effets indésirables sur son fonctionnement. Conformément aux réglementations d’Industry Canada, cet émetteur radio ne peut fonctionner qu’à l’aide d’une antenne dont le type et le gain maximal (ou minimal) ont été approuvés pour cet émetteur par Industry Canada. Pour réduire le risque d’interférences avec d’autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de telle sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e) ne soit pas supérieure à celle requise pour obtenir une communication satisfaisante. Le dispositif de fonctionnement dans la bande 5150-5250 MHz est réservé à une utilisation en intérieur pour réduire le risque d'interférences nuisibles à la co-canal systèmes mobiles par satellite, le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé pour les appareils dans les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5470-5725 MHz doit se conformer à la pire limite, et le gain d'antenne maximal autorisé pour les appareils dans la bande 5725-5825 MHz doivent être conformes avec le pire limites spécifiées à point-à-ponctuelles et non point-à-point de fonctionnement selon qu'il convient. Opération dans la bande 5600-5650 MHz n'est pas autorisée au Canada. Haute puissance radars sont désignés comme utilisateurs principaux (c.-àutilisateurs prioritaires) des bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850 MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer des interférences et / ou des dommages à dispositifs LAN-EL. Cet équipement respecte les limites d’exposition aux rayonnements IC RSS-102 définies pour un environnement non contrôlé. Il doit être installé et utilisé en maintenant une distance minimum de 20 cm entre le radiateur et votre corps.

Bloutooth Qualification

This device contains Bluetooth module qualified as "Controller system" - QD ID 58171
