Developer Board Safety
Developer Board Safety
Precautions
Most Developer Board circuits are not shielded. Be sure to take appropriate precautionary
measures in order to avoid ESD while handling the kit. ESD can damage the Developer Board
and/or the G24 module attached to it.
User Operation
Do not operate your unit when a person is within eight inches (20 centimeters) of the antenna. A
person or object within eight inches (20 centimeters) of the antenna could impair call quality and
may cause the unit to operate at a higher power level than necessary, as well as expose that person
to RF energy in excess of that established by the FCC RF Exposure Guidelines.
Important: The unit must be installed in a manner that provides a minimum separation distance
of eight inches (20 centimeters) or more between the antenna and persons and must
not be co-located or operate in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter in
order to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices.
Contact Us
Important: T o comply with the FCC RF exposure limits and to satisfy the categorical exclus ion
requirements for mobile transmitters, the requirements described in the following
section, “Antenna Installation” , must be met.
Antenna Installation
• A minimum separation distance of eight inches (20 centimeters) must be maintained between
the antenna and all persons.
• The combined cable loss and antenna gain must not exceed +7.5 dBi (850 band). The
combined cable loss and antenna gain must not exceed +2.5 dBi and total system output must
not exceed 2.0W EIRP in the PCS (1900) band in order to comply with the EIRP limit of
24.232 (b). OEM installers must be provided with antenna installation instru ction and
transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance.

data, or equipment could occur, thus avoiding
the damage.
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation,
service, and repair of the equipment described in this manual. Failure to comply with these
precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety standards of
design, manufacture, and intended use of the equipment. Motorola, Inc. assumes no liability for
the customer’s failure to comply with these requirements. The safety precautions listed below
represent warnings of certain dangers of which we are aware. You, as the user of this product,
January 31, 2007 Developer’s Kit ix
General Safety
should follow these warnings and all other safety precautions necessary for the safe operation of
the equipment in your operating environment.
Ground the instrument
To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and enclosure must be connected to an
electrical ground. If the equipment is supplied with a three-conductor AC power cable, the power
cable must be either plugged into an approved three-contact electrical outlet or used with a
three-contact to two-contact adapter. The three-contact to two-contact adapter must have the
grounding wire (green) firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) at the power
outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the power cable must meet International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards.
Note: Refer to “Grounding Guideline for Cellular Radio Installations”–Motorola part no.
68P081150E62.
Do not operate in an explosive atmosphere
Do not operate the equipment in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Operation of any
electrical equipment in such an environment constitutes a definite safety hazard.
Do not service or adjust alone
Do not attempt internal service or adjustment unless another person, capable of rendering first aid
is present.
Keep away from live circuits
Operating personnel must:
• not remove equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other qualified
maintenance personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly, or
component replacement, or any internal adjustment
• not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous
voltages may exist even with the power cable removed
• always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching them
Do not substitute parts or modify equipment
Because of the danger of introducing additional hazards, do not install substitute parts or perform
any unauthorized modification of equipment. Contact Motorola Warranty and Repair for service
and repair to ensure that safety features are maintained.
Dangerous procedure warnings
Warnings, such as the example below, precede potentially dangerous procedures throughout this
manual. Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed. You should also employ all
x Developer’s Kit January 31, 2007
Preface
other safety precautions that you deem necessary for the operation of the equipment in your
operating environment.
Warning example
