Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment and the Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base
The Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining the minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and the Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base recommended below, according to the maximum
output power of the communication equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can
be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of
the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
Note 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection
from structures, objects and people.
