2 RF EXPOSURE AND ELECTRICAL SAFETY

COMPLIANCE

The use of this device in any other type of host configuration may not comply with the

RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. During operation, a 20 cm

separation distance should be maintained between the antenna, whether extended or

retracted, and the user’s/bystander’s body (excluding hands, wrists, feet, and ankles) to

ensure RF exposure compliance. The modem is not designed for, nor intended to be,

used in applications within 20 cm (8 inches) of the body of the user. Continued

compliance of the equipment relies upon it being used with an AS/NZS 60950.1

approved SELV power supply.

2.1 Caution

Change or modification without the express consent of Maxon Australia Pty. Ltd. voids

the user’s authority to use the equipment. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference in an appropriate installation. The

modem is a transmitting device with similar output power to a mobile phone. This

equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not used in

accordance with instructions, can cause harmful radiation to radio communication.

Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,

or attachments could impair call quality, damage the device, or result in violation of RF

exposure regulations.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If the equipment does cause harmful interference in radio and television

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

 Re-orient or relocate the receiving radio or TV antenna
 Increase the separation distance between the equipment and the receiver
 Contact Maxon Australia Technical Support for assistance.

Smartmax Manual 8.0

2.2 General Safety

RF Interference Issues: Avoid possible radio frequency (RF) interference by carefully

following safety guidelines below:

 Switch OFF the Modem when in an aircraft. The use of cellular telephones in

aircraft is illegal. It may endanger the operation of the aircraft and/or disrupt the

cellular network. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to suspension or

denial of cellular services to the offender, legal action, or both.

 Switch OFF the Modem in the vicinity of gasoline or diesel fuel pumps or before

filling a vehicle with fuel.

 Switch OFF the Modem in hospitals and any other place where medical

equipment may be in use.

 Respect restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical

plants, or in areas of blasting operations.

 There may be a hazard associated with the operation of your Modem in the

vicinity of inadequately protected personal medical devices such as hearing

aids and pacemakers. Please consult the manufacturers of the medical device

to determine if it is adequately protected.

 Operation of the Modem in the vicinity of other electronic equipment may

cause interference if the equipment is inadequately protected. Observe any

warning signs and manufacturers’ recommendations.

 The modem contains sensitive electronic circuitry. Do not expose the modem to

any liquids, high temperatures or shock. The modem is not waterproof. Please

keep it dry and store it in a cool, dry place.

 Only use original accessories or accessories that are authorized by the

manufacturer. Using unauthorized accessories may affect your modem’s

performance, damage your modem and violate related national regulations.

 Always handle the modem with care. There are no user serviceable parts inside

the modem. Unauthorised dismantling or repair of the modem will void the

warranty.

Smartmax Manual 8.0

3-- 9 -

2.3 Vehicle Safety

 Do not use the Modem while driving.
 Respect national regulations on the use of cellular telephones in vehicles. Road

safety always comes first.

 If incorrectly installed in a vehicle, the operation of the Modem could interfere

with the correct functioning of vehicle electronics. To avoid such problems, be

sure that the installation has been performed by qualified personnel.

 Verification of the protection of vehicle electronics should be part of the

installation.

Note: The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by

Maxon Australia could void the warrantee.

2.4 Potentially Unsafe Areas

Posted Facilities: Turn off this device in any facility or area when posted notices require

you to do so.

Blasting Areas: Turn off your device where blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions

and follow any regulations or rules.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres: Turn off your device when you are in any area with a

potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas

could cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked.

They include:

 fuelling areas such as gas or petrol stations
 below deck on boats
 transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals
 vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as propane or butane
 areas when the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal

powders

 avoid using the modem in areas that emit electromagnetic waves or enclosed

metallic structures e.g. lifts.

 any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your engine

8 PROTOCOLS & ENCRYPTIONS

8.1 PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)

PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) is a protocol for communication between two computers

using a serial interface, typically a personal computer connected by phone line to a

server. For example, your Internet service provider may provide you with a PPP

connection so that the provider's server can respond to your requests, pass them on to

the Internet, and forward the requested Internet responses back to you. PPP uses the

Internet protocol (IP) and is designed to handle others. It is sometimes considered a

member of the TCP/IP suite of protocols. Relative to the Open Systems Interconnection

(OSI) reference model, PPP provides layer 2 (data-link layer) services. Essentially, it

packages your computer's TCP/IP packets and forwards them to the server where they

can actually be put on the Internet.

PPP is a full-duplex protocol that can be used on various physical media, including

twisted pair or fiber optic lines or satellite transmission. It uses a variation of High Speed

Data Link Control (HDLC) for packet encapsulation.

8.2 PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet)

PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) is a specification for connecting multiple

computer users on an Ethernet local area network to a remote site via a modem. PPPoE

can be used to have an office or building-full of users share a common Digital

Subscriber Line (DSL), cable modem, or wireless connection to the Internet. PPPoE

combines the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), commonly used in dialup connections, with

the Ethernet protocol, which supports multiple users in a local area network. The PPP

protocol information is encapsulated within an Ethernet frame.

PPPoE has the advantage that neither the telephone company nor the Internet service

provider (ISP) needs to provide any special support. Unlike dialup connections, DSL and

cable modem connections are "always on." Since a number of different users are

sharing the same physical connection to the remote service provider, a way is needed

to keep track of which user traffic should go to and which user should be billed. PPPoE

provides for each user-remote site session to learn each other's network addresses

(during an initial exchange called "discovery"). Once a session is established between

an individual user and the remote site (for example, an Internet service provider), the

session can be monitored for billing purposes.

8.3 DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a communication protocol that lets

network administrators centrally manage and automate the assignment of Internet

Protocol (IP) addresses in an organization's network. Using the Internet Protocol, each

machine that connects to the Internet needs a unique IP address, which is assigned

when an Internet connection is created for a specific computer. Without DHCP, the IP

address must be entered manually at each computer in an organization and a new IP

address must be entered each time a computer moves to a new location on the

network. DHCP lets a network administrator supervise and distribute IP addresses from a

central point and automatically sends a new IP address when a computer is plugged

into a different place in the network.

DHCP uses the concept of a "lease" or amount of time that a given IP address will be

valid for a computer. The lease time can vary depending on how long a user requires

the Internet connection at a particular location. It's especially useful in education and

other environments where users change frequently. Using very short leases, DHCP can

dynamically reconfigure networks in which there are more computers than there are

available IP addresses. The protocol also supports static addresses for computers that

need a permanent IP address, such as Web servers.

8.4 NAT (Network Address Translation or Translator)

NAT (Network Address Translation or Network Address Translator) is the translation of an

Internet Protocol address (IP address) used within one network to a different IP address

known within another network. One network is designated as the inside network and

the other as the outside. Typically, a company maps its local inside network addresses

to one or more global outside IP addresses and un-maps the global IP addresses on
