SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
WARNING
The M/A-COM P7100IP portable radio
generates RF electromagnetic energy
during transmit mode. This radio is
designed for and classified as
“Occupational Use Only,” meaning it
must be used only during the course of employment
by individuals aware of the hazards and the ways to
minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for
use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled
environment.
The P7100IP portable radio has been tested and complies
with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use
Only.” In addition, this M/A-COM radio complies with the
following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF
energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation
of such levels for exposure to humans:
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C,
Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic
Fields.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992),
IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic
Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.

4
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992),
IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of
Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF
and Microwave.
RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES
CAUTION
To ensure that exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy is within the FCC
allowable limits for occupational use,
always adhere to the following
guidelines:
• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna
attached, as this may damage the radio and may also
cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be exceeded. A
proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio
by M/A-COM or an antenna specifically authorized by
M/A-COM for use with this radio. (Refer to Table 2 –
Options and Accessories.)
• DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use
time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50%
of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded. The radio is
transmitting when the “TX” indicator appears in the
display. The radio will transmit by pressing the “PTT”
button.

5
• Always transmit using low power (refer to High/Low
Power Adjustment section) when possible. In addition
to conserving battery charge, low power can reduce
RF exposure.
• ALWAYS use M/A-COM authorized accessories
(antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc).
Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC
Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance
requirements to be exceeded. (Refer to Table 2 –
Options and Accessories.)
• ALWAYS keep the device and its antenna at least 2
cm (0.8 inches) from the body and at least 5 cm (2
inches) from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC
RF exposure compliance requirements are not
exceeded. This radio has been tested for RF exposure
compliance at the distances listed in Table 1.
However, to provide the recipients of your
transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna
at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly off to
one side.

The information in this section provides the information
needed to make the user aware of a RF exposure, and
what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC
RF exposure limits of this radio.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY
During transmissions, this M/A-COM radio generates RF
energy that can possibly cause interference with other
devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off
the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO
NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to
electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and
blasting sites.

OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS
Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). As an operator of
two-way radio equipment, you must be thoroughly familiar
with the rules that apply to your particular type of radio
operation. Following these rules will help eliminate
confusion and will assure the most efficient use of existing
radio channels. This will provide a smooth operating radio
network.
When using the radio, remember these rules:
1. It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or
emergency message. As the radio operates in much
the same way as a telephone "party line" when in
conventional mode, always listen and/or observe the
absence of the “busy” display (refer to Table 3 –
Display for display character) to make sure that the
line is clear before sending any messages. If someone
is sending an emergency message, such as reporting
a fire or asking for help in an accident, KEEP OFF
THE AIR! Emergency calls have priority over all other
messages.
2. Use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by
Federal Law.
3. It is against the law to send false call letters or a false
distress or emergency message.

8
4. The FCC requires that conversations be brief and
confined to business. To save time, use coded
messages whenever possible.
5. Using the radio to send personal messages (except in
an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only
those messages essential for the business operation.
6. It is against Federal Law to repeat or otherwise make
known anything overheard on the radio. Conversations
between others sharing your channel must be
regarded as confidential.

OPERATING TIPS
Antenna location and condition are important when
operating a portable radio. Operating the radio in low lying
areas or terrain, under power lines or bridges, inside of a
vehicle or in a metal framed building can severely reduce
the range of the unit. Mountains can also reduce the range
of the unit.
In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some
improvement may be obtained by ensuring that the
antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in another direction
or moving to a higher elevation may also improve
communications. Vehicular operation can be aided with the
use of an externally mounted antenna.
Battery condition is another important factor in the trouble
free operation of a portable radio. Always properly charge
the batteries.
EFFICIENT RADIO OPERATION
Hold the portable radio approximately three inches from
your mouth and speak into the microphone at a normal
voice level.
Keep the antenna in a vertical position when receiving or
transmitting a message.
Do not hold the antenna when receiving a message and,
especially, do not hold when transmitting a message.

10
WARNING
Do NOT hold onto the antenna when
transmitting!
Antenna Care and Replacement
WARNING
Always keep the antenna at least 0.8 inches
(2 cm.) away from the body and 2 inches (5
cm.) from the face when transmitting to
ensure FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements are not exceeded.
WARNING
Do not use the portable radio with a damaged
or missing antenna. A minor burn may result
if a damaged antenna comes into contact
with the skin. Replace a damaged antenna
immediately. Operating a portable radio with
the antenna missing could cause personal
injury, damage the radio, and may violate
FCC regulations.
