Cooper Bussmann BU-245U-E Wireless Ethernet & Device Server User Manual
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Cooper Bussmann products are designed to be used in industrial environments, by experienced industrial engineering personnel with adequate
knowledge of safety design considerations.
Cooper Bussmann radio products are used on unprotected license-free radio bands with radio noise and interference.The products are designed
to operate in the presence of noise and interference, however in an extreme case,radio noise and interference could cause product operation
delays or operation failure. Like all industrial electronic products,Cooper Bussmann products can fail in a variety of modes due to misuse, age, or
malfunction.We recommend that users and designers design systems using design techniques intended to prevent personal injury or damage
during product operation, and provide failure tolerant systems to prevent personal injury or damage in the event of product failure. Designers must
warn users of the equipment or systems if adequate protection against failure has not been included in the system design. Designers must
include this Important Notice in operating procedures and system manuals.
These products should not be used in non-industrial applications, or life-support systems,without consulting Cooper Bussmann first.
1.A radio license is not required in some countries, provided the module is installed using the aerial and equipment configuration described in the
BU-245U-E Installation Guide. Check with your local distributor for further information on regulations.
2.Operation is authorized by the radio frequency regulatory authority in your countr y on a non-protection basis.Although all care is taken in the
design of these units, there is no responsibility taken for sources of external interference.Systems should be designed to be tolerant of these
operational delays.
3.To avoid the risk of electrocution, the aerial, aerial cable, serial cables and all terminals of the BU-245U-E module should be electrically
protected.To provide maximum surge and lightning protection, the module should be connected to a suitable earth and the aerial, aerial cable,
serial cables and the module should be installed as recommended in the Installation Guide.
4.To avoid accidents during maintenance or adjustment of remotely controlled equipment, all equipment should be first disconnected from the
BU-245U-E module during these adjustments. Equipment should carry clear markings to indicate remote or automatic operation. E.g.,"This
equipment is remotely controlled and may start without warning. Isolate at the switchboard before attempting adjustments."
5.The BU-245U-E module is not suitable for use in explosive environments without additional protection.
6.The BU-245U-E Operates using the same Radio frequencies and communication protocols as commercially available off-the shelf equipment.
If your system is not adequately secured, third parties may be able to gain access to your data or gain control of your equipment via the radio
link. Before deploying a system make sure you have considered the security aspects of your installation carefully.
