Use of a Transceiver

A location that is not exposed to rain or water.
A location subject to a minimum of vibration or impact.
Temperature: –40 to 85 °C
Humidity: 5 to 100% RH (at 40 °C)
The performance of the positioner can be impaired if stored in an area
exposed to direct rain and water. To avoid damage to the positioner, install it

exposed to corrosive atmospheric conditions.
When using the positioner in a corrosive environment, ensure
the location is well ventilated. Protect the unit and its wiring
from exposure to rainwater.
Install the positioner in a location that is subject to a minimum
amount of impact and vibration.
Although the positioner is designed to resist influence from high
frequency noise, use of a transceiver in the vicinity of installa-
tion can cause problems. Installing the transmitter in an area
free from high frequency noise (RFI) is recommended.
