About this Manual This manual describes the standard features and operation of the RFID ICODE
handheld interface. Unless otherwise stated, the operational characteristics
described herein correspond to factory default configurations and settings as
shipped from Allen-Bradley. Wherever used herein, the terms “RFID ICODE
handheld interface” or “handheld” applies to all models (except as noted).
ATTENTION: This equipment is intended for use in overvoltage
Category II applications (as defined in IEC 60664-1), at altitudes up to
2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment
according to IEC/CISPR 11. Without appropriate precautions, there
may be difficulties with electromagnetic compatibility in residential
and other environments due to conducted and radiated disturbances.
This equipment is supplied as enclosed equipment. It should not
require additional system enclosure when used in locations
consistent with the enclosure type ratings stated in the Specifications
section of this publication. Subsequent sections of this publication
may contain additional information regarding specific enclosure type
ratings, beyond what this product provides, that are required to
comply with certain product safety certifications.
In addition to this publication, see:
• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Rockwell
Automation publication 1770-4.1 , for additional installation
requirements.
• NEMA Standards 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for
explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different
types of enclosure.
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge that can cause
internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these
guidelines when you handle this equipment.
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wrist strap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
