11. EMI ­ ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERRENCE
CAUTION: It is important that you read this information regarding the possible effects of electromagnetic interference on your APT-5.

Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) From Radio Wave Sources The equipment may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is interfering electromagnetic energy (EM) emitted from sources such as radio stations, TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular phones. The interference (from radio wave sources) can cause the equipment to come to a sudden stop, or react in an uncontrolled manner. It can also permanently damage the equipment’s control system.

There are a number of sources of relatively intense electromagnetic fields in the everyday environment. Some of these sources are obvious and easy to avoid. Others are not apparent and exposure is unavoidable. However, we believe that by following the warnings listed below, your risk to EMI will be minimized.

The sources of radiated EMI can be broadly classified into three types: 1) Hand-held portable transceivers (transmitters-receivers) with the
antenna mounted directly on the transmitting unit. Examples include citizens band (CB) radios, “walkie-talkies”, security, fire, and police transceivers, cellular telephones, and other personal communication devices. **NOTE: Some cellular telephones and similar devices transmit signals while they are ON, even when not being used; 2) Medium-range mobile transceivers, such as those used in police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and taxis. These usually have the antenna mounted on the outside of the vehicle; and 3) Long-range transmitters and transceivers, such as commercial broadcast transmitters (radio and TV broadcast antenna towers) and amateur (HAM) radios.

NOTE: Other types of hand-held devices, such as cordless phones, laptop computers, AM/FM radios, TV sets, CD players, and cassette players, and small appliances, such as electric shavers and hair dryers, so far as we know, are not likely to cause EMI problems to the equipment.

Because EM energy rapidly becomes more intense as one moves closer to the transmitting antenna (source), the EM fields from hand-held radio wave sources (transceivers) are of special concern. It is possible to unintentionally bring high levels of EM energy very close to the equipment’s control system while using these devices. This can affect the equipment’s

operation. Therefore, the warnings listed below are recommended to prevent possible interference with the control system of your APT-5.
WARNINGS Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from sources such as radio and TV stations, amateur radio (HAM) transmitters, two-way radios, and cellular phones can affect the equipment. Following the warnings listed below should reduce the chance of unintended reaction, which could result in serious injury.

  1. Do not operate hand-held transceivers (transmitters-receivers), such as citizens band (CB) radios, or turn ON personal communication devices, such an cellular phones, while your APT-5 is turned ON;
  2. Be aware of nearby transmitters, such as radio or TV stations, and try to avoid operating your APT-5 close to them;
  3. If an unintended reaction occurs, turn your APT-5 power switch OFF by using the emergency stop switch (see instructions on page 22);
  4. Be aware that adding accessories or components, or modifying your APT-5, may make it more susceptible to EMI (Note: There is no easy way to evaluate their effect on the overall immunity of your APT-5);
  5. Report all incidents of unintended reaction to your Authorized APT-5 dealer or service center, and note whether there is a source of EMI nearby.
