Guidance and manufacturer's declaration – electromagnetic immunity
The Apex ID is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the user of the
Apex ID should assure that it is used in such an environment.

Note: UT is the A.C. mains voltage prior to application of the test level.
Note: At 80MHz and 800MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic
propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures,
objects and people.
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio
(cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio,
AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted
theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment
due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the
Apex ID is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the
Apex ID should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal
performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such
as re-orienting or relocating the Apex ID.
Over the frequency range 150kHz to 80MHz, field strengths should be
b
less than [V1] V/m.

Electromagnetic environment – guidance
Floors should be wood, concrete or ceramic tile.
If floors are covered with synthetic material, the
relative humidity should be at least 30%.
Main power quality should be that of a typical
commercial or hospital environment.
Main power quality should be that of a typical
commercial or hospital environment.
Main power quality should be that of a typical
commercial or hospital environment. If the user
of the Apex ID requires continued operation
during power main interruptions, it is
SN
recommended that the model Apex ID be
powered from an uninterruptible power supply
or battery.
REF
Power frequency magnetic fields should be at
levels characteristic of a typical location in a
typical commercial or hospital environment.
Portable and mobile RF communications
equipment should be used no closer to any part
of the Apex ID, including cables, than the
recommended separation distance calculated
from the equation applicable to the frequency of
the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
d=[3.5/V1]√P
EC REP
d=[3.5/E1]√P 80MHz to 800MHz
d=[7/E1]√P 800MHz to 2.5GHz
Where P is the maximum output power rating of
the transmitter in watts (W) according to
the transmitter manufacturer and d is the
recommended separation distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as
determined by an electromagnetic site survey, a
should be less than the compliance level in each
frequency range.
