Description
The term Electromagnetic Compatibility is taken to mean the capability of the product to function smoothly in an environment where electromagnetic radiation and electrostatic discharges are present, and without causing electromagnetic disturbances to other equipment.
Electromagnetic radiation
Electromagnetic radiation can cause disturbances in other equipment.
Precautions:
▶ Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which
are in force in this respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely
exclude the possibility that other equipment may be disturbed.
Use of the product with accessories from other manufacturers. For example, field computers, personal computers or other electronic equipment, non-standard cables or external batteries
This may cause disturbances in other equipment.
Precautions:
▶ Use only the equipment and accessories recommended by Leica Geosystems.
▶ When combined with the product, other accessories must meet the strict
requirements stipulated by the guidelines and standards.
▶ When using computers, two-way radios or other electronic equipment,
pay attention to the information about electromagnetic compatibility
provided by the manufacturer.
Intense electromagnetic radiation. For example, near radio transmitters, transponders, two-way radios or diesel generators
Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force in this respect, Leica Geosystems cannot completely exclude the possibility that the function of the product may be disturbed in such an electromagnetic environment.
Precautions:
▶ Check the plausibility of results obtained under these conditions
Electromagnetic radiation due to improper connection of cables
If the product is operated with connecting cables, attached at only one of their two ends, the permitted level of electromagnetic radiation may be exceeded and the correct functioning of other products may be impaired. For example, external supply cables or interface cables.
Precautions:
▶ While the product is in use, connecting cables, for example product to
external battery or product to computer, must be connected at both ends.
Use of product with radio or digital cellular phone devices
Electromagnetic fields can cause disturbances in other equipment, installations, medical devices, for example pacemakers or hearing aids, and aircrafts. Electromagnetic fields can also affect humans and animals.
Precautions:
▶ Although the product meets the strict regulations and standards which are in force in this respect, Leica cannot completely exclude the possibility that other equipment can be disturbed or that humans or animals can be affected.
▶ Do not operate the product with radio or digital cellular phone devices in the vicinity of filling stations or chemical installations, or in other areas where an explosion hazard exists.
▶ Do not operate the product with radio or digital cellular phone devices near medical equipment.
▶ Do not operate the product with radio or digital cellular phone devices in aircrafts.
▶ Do not operate the product with radio or digital cellular phone devices for long periods with the product immediately next to your body.
