Introduction
This guide shows you how to set up your Multi-Tech wireless
MultiModem. For detailed information, product specifications,
troubleshooting tips, and more, see the User Guide, available on the
MultiModem CD accompanying your wireless modem.
General Safety
The modem is designed for and intended to be used in fixed and mobile
applications. “Fixed” means that the device is physically secured at one
location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. In a
“Mobile” application, the device may be moved regularly from one
location to another.
Caution: Maintain a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches)
between the transmitter’s antenna and the body of the user or nearby
persons. The modem is not designed for, nor intended to be, used in
applications within 20 cm (8 inches) of the body of the user.
RF Interference Issues
Avoid possible radio frequency (RF) interference by carefully following
the safety guidelines below.
•Switch OFF the MultiModem 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 MultiModem in the vicinity of gasoline or diesel-fuel
pumps or before filling a vehicle with fuel.
•Switch OFF the MultiModem 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
MultiModem in the vicinity of inadequately protected personal
medical devices such as hearing aids and pacemakers. Consult the
manufacturers of the medical device to determine if it is adequately
protected.
