This equipment must be fixed on the machinery. airrt42fh_instruction_manual-rev01 In addition to the above, this radio module cannot be installed:
-
-
inside equipment that is portable by user in equipment that are intended for the use in environments requiring explosion-proof features or in any usage situation that may pose the risk of explosion. in equipment for moving, raising and transporting people, if the Machines characteristics and their related risks and/or the risks related to the use of a Radio Remote Control do not make it possible for the Machine Manufacturer to ensure that all the safety requirements are met. Such requirements must be taken into account when designing and manufacturing the Machine, also bearing in mind that a radio module will be used. The Machine Manufacturer may allow the installation and use of the radio module on such applications under their own responsibility. in equipment that create or can create dangerous situations if they stop due to the loss of radio link. in equipment that do not allow a risk-free installation of a radio module, due to their functions or features and/or to the risks related to their use. if the applicable safety-related laws in the country where the Machine is used, regulations and stan-
dards (even local ones), even concerning safety in the workplace, do not allow the use of radio module to control the Machines.

INSTALLATION OF AIRRT42FH RADIO MODULE IN THE ABOVE-MENTIONED EQUIPMENT AND SI-
TUATIONS MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. 5 airrt42fh_instruction_manual-rev01 Functional description 3. The AIRRT42FH radio module is transceiver module and it is based on the commercial RFIC (Radio Fre-
quency Integrated Circuit) ADF7021 made by Analog Devices, which encompasses all the circuits and functions needed to build a narrowband, high performance, UHF transceiver for digital signalling. See Analog Devices website for a complete and up-to-date description of ADF7021. It can operate on a wide range of frequencies with simple re-programming; this feature has allowed the development of a dual-band radio, capable of communicating on 915-928MHz under north-american FCC part 15.247 as well as on 863-870MHz under european EN300220 radio standards. To prevent improper or illegal use of the dual-band feature, procedure for choosing of the frequency band will not be disclosed to the final user. It will be managed at Autec production site, or at an authorised tech-
nical service site, where trained personnel with adequate instrumentation will be able to choose and verify the correct option for any specific geographical area. 6 Frequencies groups 4. In the AIRRT42FH radio module there are 4 groups selectable inside the 256 channels available: group A, group B, group C, group D. airrt42fh_instruction_manual-rev01 Frequencies group A 4.1 The channel range of group A is 915.100 - 927.700MHz. The group contains 64 channels with a minimum space between them of 150kHz. Frequencies group B 4.2 The channel range of group B is 915.200 - 927.800MHz. The group contains 64 channels with a minimum space between them of 150kHz. 7 airrt42fh_instruction_manual-rev01 Frequencies group C 4.3 The channel range of group C is 915.050 - 927.800MHz. The group contains 74 channels with a minimum space between them of 100kHz. 4.4 Frequencies group D The channel range of group D is 915.100 - 927.800MHz. The group contains 85 channels with a minimum space between them of 100kHz. 8 airrt42fh_instruction_manual-rev01 5. Antenna This radio module has been approved to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device. Antenna Antenna Type Antenna gain Antenna Impedance external dedicated antenna provided by Autec quater wavelength monopole
<= 2dBi 50 ohm Autec allows you to use only the dedicated antenna supplied either with the raio module or as original spare part. The use of any other type of antenna is prohibited and will invalidate tdhe warranty. Place the dedicated antenna in a position that ensures a minimum separation distance of 20cm from all the people that can be in the working area. 9 airrt42fh_instruction_manual-rev01 6. Approval for US FCC 6.1 This radio module complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two con-
ditions:
1. 2. This device may not cause harmful interference, and This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesira-
ble operation. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Autec could void the users authority to operate the equipment. The FCC ID for this radio module is OQA-AIRRT42FH. FCC End Product Labeling 6.2 The AIRRT42FH module is labeled with its own FCC ID. If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. In that case, the final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:

Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: OQA-AIRRT42FH Contains FCC ID: OQA-AIRRT42FH 10 airrt42fh_instruction_manual-rev01 7. Approval for Canada ISED 7.1 This radio transmitter has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the external dedicated an-
tenna. Other antenna types are strictly prohibited for use with this device. This device complies with Industry Canadas license-exempt RSS standards. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference; and 2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. The IC for this radio module is 9061A-AIRRT42FH. ISED 7.2 Cet metteur radio a reu lapprobation dIndustrie Canada pour une exploitation avec lantenne puce in-
corpore. Il est strictement interdit dutiliser dautres types dantenne avec cet appareil. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR dIndustrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. Lexploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes:
1. 2. Lappareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage; et Lappareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible de provoquer un fonctionnement non dsir de lappareil. Le IC pour ce module radio est 9061A-AIRRT42FH. ISED End Product Labeling 7.3 The AIRRT42FH module is labeled with its own IC ID. If the IC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. In that case, the final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
