As required by the document “RSS-Gen — General Requirements and Information for the Certification of Radio Apparatus”, the following indication is valid for all the Units listed in the previous table.
This device complies with Industry Canada’s license-exempt RSS. 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.

As required by the document “RSS-Gen — General Requirements and Information for the Certification of Radio Apparatus”, the following indications are valid for all the  Receiving Units listed in the previous table.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

This radio transmitter has been approved by Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below, with the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this list that have a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for any type listed are strictly prohibited for use with this device.

Antenna type Antenna gain Antenna impedance
Autec stylus λ/4 <2dBi 50 Ohm
Autec stylus λ/4 with 5m RG58 <2dBi 50 Ohm
Autec stylus λ/4 with 20m RG213/U <2dBi 50 Ohm

Frequencies

Dynamic series’ Radio Remote Controls can work in the 915-928MHz frequency band.

| The Radio Remote Controls’ working frequency is defined by market-specific laws and standards. In order for the system “Machine+Radio Remote Control” to be compliant and therefore to be used, these laws and standards must be respected:
if they are not, the Radio Remote Control cannot and must not be used.
Autec cannot be held responsible if the Radio Remote Control is set with frequencies that are forbidden in the country of use.
---|---

Frequency band 915-928MHz

Frequencies

The radio link between the Units of Autec Dynamic series Radio Remote Controls is established at one of the frequencies permitted by the USA, Canadian and Australian standards in force when the system is put on the market.

Frequencies used 256
RF power meets FCC and IC requirements
Channel spacing 50kHz

The Units communicate with one another in dynamic mode, that is:

  • They use a working frequency in the 915-928MHz band
  • They check that the frequency is free before using it
  • They continuously change the working frequency in order to guarantee the radio link even in the presence of interference.
Countries of usage

Dynamic series’ Radio Remote Controls working in the frequency band 915-928MHz can be used in the USA, Canadian and Australian markets.
Check on the technical data plate of the Units in which markets the Radio Remote Control can be used.
