Antenna Statement 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 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.

SAR is measured with the device at 0 mm to the extremity, while transmitting at the highest certified output power level in all frequency bands of the device.

The maximum SAR value is 0.58 (WLAN) / 3.34 (WWAN) W/kg (extremity) averaged over 10 gram of tissue.

This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 0 cm between the radiator and your extremity. This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. The County Code Selection feature is disabled for products marketed in the US/Canada.

Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e. ) ne dépasse pas l'intens ité néces saire à l' établ i ssement d'une communication satisfaisante.

Licence exempt This device complies with Industry Canada licence-

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.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes :

l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et

l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouil lage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES- 003.

Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.

This Category II radio communication device complies with Industry Canada Standard RSS-310.

Ce dispositif de radiocommunication de catégorie II respecte la norme CNR-310 d’Industrie Canada.

IC S AR wa rning Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure Informat ion The radiated output power of the Wireless Device is below the

Industry Canada (IC) radio frequency exposure limits. The Wireless Device should be used in such a manner such that the potential for human contact during normal operation is minimized.

This device has been evaluated for and shown compliant with the IC Specific Absorption Rate (“SAR”) limits whe n installed in specific host products operated in portable exposure conditions.

Informations concernan t l'expos it ion aux fréquences radio (RF) La puissance de sortie émise par l’appareil de sans fil est

inférieure à la limite d'exposition aux fréquences radio d'Industry Canada (IC). Utilisez l’appare il de sans fil de façon à minimiser les contacts humains lors du fonctionnement normal.

Ce périphérique a été évalué et démontré conforme aux limites SAR (Specific Absorption Rate – Ta ux d'absor ption sp écifique) d'IC lorsqu'il est installé dans des produits hôtes particuliers qui fonctionnent dans des conditions d'exposition à des appareils portables.

The device could automatically discontinue transmission in case of absen ce of i nformation to t ransmit, or operational failure. Note that this is not intended to prohibit transmission of control or signaling information or the use of repetitive codes where required by the technology.

The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential for harmful inter ference to co- channel mobile satellite systems; the maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz) to comply with the e.i.r.p. limit; and The maximum antenna gain permitted (for devices in the band 5725-5850 MHz) to comply with the e .i.r.p. limits spec ified for poin t -to-point and non-point-to-point operation as appropriate, as stated in section A9.2(3). In addition, High- power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they hav e priority) of the band 5250-5350 MHz and this radar could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.

IMPORTANT NOTE: IC Radiation Exposure Statement This EUT is compliant with SAR for general

population/uncontrolled exposure limits in IC RSS-102 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE 1528.

Trimble Nomad 5 Handheld User Guide | 5

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Cl a s s B digi tal de vice p ur sua n t t o Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

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 communication. 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 the equipment

–

and the 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 tec h nici a n for help.

Changes and modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer or registrant of this equipment can void your authority to operate this equipment under Federal Communications Commission rules.

The radios in this device have been designed and manufactured to not exceed stipulated emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy as required by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Gov e rnmen t 4 7 C.F.R . § 2.10 9 1 and 2.1093.

Operation on the 5.15-5.25GHz frequency band is restricted to indoor use only. The FCC requires indoor use f or t h e 5.15- 5.25GHz band to reduce the potential for h armf ul interferenc e to c o-channel Mobile Satellite Systems.

Therefore, it will only transmit on the 5.25-5.3 5 G Hz ,

Battery care

Use and storage temperature: Lithium-ion batteries are sensitive to high temperatures, so keep the device's batteries out of direct sun for long periods, and do not leave batteries in a hot car, especial l y on a dashboard in full sun or other environments where temperatures can exceed +70 °C (+158 °F) Battery life can be shortened if stored or operated outside of these temperature ranges. Recommended storage temperature is at room temperature (~ +20 °C / +68 °F). When you are using the device or charging the batteries, it is normal for the device and batteries to get warm.

If the interior temperature of the device exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example, in a hot car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may experience the following as it attempts to regulate its temperature automatically:



The device stops charging.



If the device cannot regulate its internal temperature, it may go into a Sleep state until it cools.

Move the device to a cooler location out of direct sunlight and wait a few minutes before trying to use the device again.

Charging: Recharge the battery any time; the battery does not need to be empty or low before you recharge it. However, it is best to let the battery run to below 10 percent at least once a month before you recharge it . B at t ery r e ch argi n g is supported at temperatures between 0 °C and +45 °C (+32 °F and +113 °F). Use only the manufacturer designated charging accessories to recharge the batteries.

Other environmental conditions: The batteries are sealed from water and dust, and are tested for protection from drops from heights up to 122 cm (4 feet). However to prolong the life of the battery, dry it off with a cloth if it becomes wet, do not intentionally submerge the battery, and take care to avoid unnecessary drops, mechanical shocks, and vibrations.

The Nomad 5 handheld is designed to work in ambient temperatures between -30 °C and +60 °C (-22 °F and +140 °F) and to be stored in temperatures between -40 °C and +70 °C (40 °F and +148 °F). Avoid exposing the device to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity.

Making your battery last longer

The Android 8.1 operating system includes a number of features to help you get the maximum run time out of your battery. Here are some practical suggestions that you can do to maximize the operating time of your Nomad 5 handheld:



Use battery saver mode. Battery saver mode can help make your Nomad 5 battery last longer when it is running low. This mode reduces system performance and limits vibration, location services, and most background data use.

NOTE – Battery saver turns off automatically when your device is charging.



Keep battery optimization on. To have apps use your device’s battery only when they need to, keep battery optimization on for all apps. Battery optimization is on by default.



Stretch a low battery’s power. To help a dying battery last until you can plug in your phone or tablet, first turn on battery saver mode. Often, battery saver is all you’ll need for a low battery’s power to last until you can get to a charger. Stretch your remaining

TIP – You'll want to turn y our features back o n w hen you rec harge.



Avoid high-drain activities (for example, heavy screen use, heavy data processing).



Limit connectivity (for example, turn on Airplane mode, turn off Bluetooth). See

Using wireless networks, page 40.



Limit location data (for example, turn on GPS battery saving mode, turn off Location services).



Limit automatic syncing (for example, turn off auto-sync for your Google account, turn off auto-sync for certain Google apps).



Unplug USB devices. Many USB devices use power just by being connected. If you use a USB flash drive, unplug it when you are not using it.



Turn off EMPOWER modules if you will not be using them for a prolonged period. Refer to the mod ule docum entation ava i l able he re:

In general, a network operating on the 5GHz frequency will be faster and less susceptible to interference, but will have a shorter range than a 2.4GHz network.

Device shut-down when hot-swapping the battery



Hot-swap battery is not sufficiently charged. The hot-swap back-up battery allows you to change the main device battery for a charged one without shutting the device down. To function correctly, the hot-swap battery needs at least X minutes of charging time before it can work properly. If you attempt multiple hot-swaps without allowing the back-up battery to recharge, your device may shut-down when the battery is removed.
