1. SAFETY

To prevent the risk of personal injury or loss related to equipment malfunction ADVANTECH

AMT™uses the following symbols for safety related information. For your own safety, please

read the information carefully BEFORE operating the equipment.

Symbols used in manual:

WARNING! This indicates a hazardous procedure that could result in serious injury or death if

not performed properly.

CAUTION! This indicates a hazardous and dangerous procedure that could result in light-

to-severe injury or loss related to equipment malfunction, if proper precautions

are not taken.

------------------------------------------------ WARNING ---------------------------------------------------

When supplying power to this equipment, use the 3-pin connector provided, to connect to a

grounded power outlet. If power is supplied without grounding the equipment, there is a risk of

receiving a severe or fatal electric shock.

In the context of this document any voltage that is lethal is viewed as ‘High Voltage’. Therefore,

even prime power (90 to 264) VAC (or 48 V DC) is dangerous to handle because the prime

power potentials have been known to cause injury or death.

------------------------------------------------ WARNING ---------------------------------------------------

The operator cannot repair this equipment. DO NOT attempt to remove the equipment cover

or to disassemble internal components. Only qualified service technicians should service this

equipment. There are high-voltage parts within this equipment that present a risk of severe

injury to untrained personnel. In addition, there is a risk of damaging to precision components.

----------------------------------------------- WARNING ---------------------------------------------------

ALWAYS TERMINATE THE RF OUTPUT PORTS OF THE TRANSCEIVER WITH RF

LOADS CAPABLE OF DISSIPATING FULL CW RF POWER. SIMILARLY

TERMINATE THE RF INPUT PORTS TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF THE UNIT

BEING DRIVEN BY STRAY LEAKAGE SIGNALS. Incorporate the terminations prior to

applying prime power to the unit. This procedure prevents self-oscillation and irradiation into

the local environment. Even if a source is not connected to the unit, there are situations where

the transceiver can go into a self-induced mode and generate high levels of RF energy.

AWMT

Destruction caused under an excessive load voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) will void the

warranty. Although this equipment has an internal protection VSWR of greater than 3:1 and will

automatically shutdown within a delay of 1 second, it is still a safe procedure to avoid the

unwanted effects.

----------------------------------------------- WARNING ---------------------------------------------------

DO NOT LOOK INTO THE RF OUTPUT PORTS OF THE POWERED

TRANSCEIVER.Treat the powered unit with extreme care. Keep in mind that although the

levels of microwave radiation do not induce immediate physical discomfort in most individuals

the levels can be sufficiently high to induce long term effects. The eyes are the most vulnerable

parts of the body.

The permissible levels of exposure are quite low compared to the power levels of the

transceivers built by ADVANTECH AMT™(e.g. less than 10 mW versus 20 to 500 W delivered

by various units). The permissible levels are currently being studied by a number of

organisations. In the past the U.S. safety Code established a dosage rate of 10 mW/cm2.

Currently there is consideration being given to reduce the permissible level to 1 mW/cm2in the

United States, as has been the case for several European countries.

----------------------------------------------- CAUTION-----------------------------------------------------

THE UNIT IS VERY HEAVY! AT LEAST TWO OR MORE INDIVIDUALS OR AN

EQUIPMENT CART IS REQUIRED TO LIFT AND MOVE THE UNIT. There is a risk of

back injury if a single person handles this equipment.

In addition to this Section, included by reference are the following pertinent sections of the

International Standard IEC-215, ‘Safety requirements for radio transmitting equipment’:

Appendix D, ‘GUIDANCE ON ASSESSING THE COMPETENCE OF PERSONNEL FOR

DESIGNATION AS SKILLED’ and also Sub-clause 3.1 of the Standard.

Appendix E, ‘GUIDANCE ON SAFETY PRECAUTIONS TO BE OBSERVED BY

PERSONNEL WORKING ON RADIO TRANSMITTING EQUIPMENT’, also Sub-clauses 3.2,

3.7 and 22.1 of the Standard.
