1.7 Environmental 
Requirements 
AMP Transmitters are designed for indoor or outdoor use.  Precautions should be taken 
when exposing transmitters to the elements.  Do not expose to 100% humidity. 
 
Transmitters should be located in areas where the ambient temperature does not exceed 
the maximum operating temperature indicated in the specifications (Section 1.4).  
Placement in confined locations with minimal air flow, in direct sunlight in areas of 
temperature extremes, or in proximity to other devices which generate heat, such as 
power supplies, heating systems, etc., should be avoided.  Temperatures exceeding 
+75°C may cause permanent damage to the equipment. 
 
When not used for extended periods of time external connections, including power cable, 
video cable, and antenna, should be removed and the units covered, boxed, or crated and 
stored in a clean, dry place.  See Section 1.7 above for environmental requirements. 
 
2.0 SAFETY 
PRECAUTIONS 
 
Transmitters should be handled with caution like any electrical or electronic device.  Do 
not handle the units or associated cabling with wet hands or materials. 
 
Connections should be made only to previously-tested, active power sources (outlets or 
batteries) of the correct voltage, and each connector should be inserted only into its 
designated port.  All connections should be checked to ensure they are firmly in place. 
 
WARNING! RF RADIATION HAZARD 
In order to keep the RF Exposure within the FCC 1.1310 limit, a safe personal 
distance from the antenna must be maintained according to the below tables.  The 
first table is for transmitters operating 1500 MHz or higher where the Maximum 
Permissible Exposure (MPE) is 10 Watts/meter
2
.  The second table is for 
transmitters operating in the 340-400 MHz range where the MPE is 2.27 
Watts/meter
2
.  See Appendix A for details on calculation of safe personal distances.
