ronment.
The IPC uses RF energy only for its internal function. Therefore, its RF emissions are very
low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic equipment
The IPC is suitable for use in all establishments, other than domestic and those directly
connected to the public low-voltage power supply network that supplies buildings for
domestic purpose.
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the IPC
The IPC is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the IPC can help
prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the
IPC as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
Rated maximum power

10.003.803.807.30
100.0012.0012.0023.0
For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter
manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is aected by absorption and reection from structures, objects and
people.

INTEGRATED POWER CONSOLE (IPC)
Part II
The IPC is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specied below.
The customer or the user of the IPC should assure that it is used in such an environment.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to
any part of the IPC , including cables, than the recommended separation distance
calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
Where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation
distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from xed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic
site survey,a should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range.b
Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following
symbol:
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is aected by absorption and reection from structures, objects and
people.
NOTE 3 When operating the IPC with Stylus Touch, the compliance level is 3 V/m except from 88 MHz to 91 MHz where it is 1 V/m. The formula for separation
distance for the IPC with Stylus Touch will be d = 3.5 √P in that frequency range.
a Field strengths from xed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio
broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to xed RF transmitters, an
electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured eld strength in the location in which the IPC is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the IPC should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such
as re-orienting or relocating the IPC .
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, eld strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
