NOTICE
FCC NOTICE
The United States Federal Communications Commission (in 47 CFR 15) has specified that the following notices be
brought to the attention of users of this product.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference at his own risk.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the users authority
to operate the equipment.
IMPORTANT: In order to maintain compliance with the limits of a Class A digital device, it is required to use properly
shielded interface cables (such as Belden #9539 or equivalent) when using the serial data ports, and double-shielded
cables (such as Belden #9945 or equivalent) when using the I/O strobe port.
CE NOTICE
WARNING: This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which
case the user may be required to take adequate measures.
CAUTION!
1. This device incorporates circuitry to absorb most static discharges. However, severe static shock may cause
inaccurate operation of the unit. Use anti-static precautions where possible.
2. This device is a precision instrument. Although it is designed for rugged operating conditions, it performs best when
handled with care.
3. When the cover for the PC Card ATA mass storage card (PC Card) is closed and latched, the enclosure is sealed to
provide protection against adverse environmental conditions. To minimize the possibility of damage, always keep
this cover closed and latched except when exchanging PC Cards. Any attempt to remove this cover or the end-
caps impairs the water-resistant qualities of the enclosure, and void the warranty.
4. Do not eject the PC Card while the DL is logging data, as you may lose part of or your entire data file.
5. The DL can accept an input supply voltage in the range +10.7 to +18 V DC. This may not be the same range as other
NovAtel products with which you are familiar. Operating the DL below 10.7 V DC causes the unit to suspend
operation. An input voltage above +18 V DC may physically damage the unit.
6. The DL is not compatible with the ProPak series of power supplies and power cables.
7. Drawing more than the specified maximum current (2 amps) from COM2 will cause an internal fuse to interrupt the
current. Restoring normal operation will require returning the unit to NovAtel.
