No Linx Technologies product is intended for use in any application without 2 ES Transmitter Evaluation Boarad redundancies where the safety of life or property is at risk. 3 ES Receiver Evaluation Boarad 4 Theory of Operation The customers and users of devices and machinery controlled with RF products must understand and must use all appropriate safety 4 Using the Kit procedures in connection with the devices, including without limitation, 5 Development Using the Prototyping Area using appropriate safety procedures to prevent inadvertent triggering by 6 Range Testing the user of the device and using appropriate security codes to prevent triggering of the remote controlled machine or device by users of other 7 Using the Boards as a Design Reference remote controllers. 8 About Antennas 8 In Closing Do not use this or any Linx product to trigger an action directly from the data line or RSSI lines without a protocol or encoder/ 9 Online Resources decoder to validate the data. Without validation, any signal from another unrelated transmitter in the environment received by the module could inadvertently trigger the action. This module does not have data validation built in. All RF products are susceptible to RF interference that can prevent communication. RF products without frequency agility or hopping implemented are more subject to interference. This module does not have frequency agility built in. Do not use any Linx product over the limits in this data guide. Excessive voltage or extended operation at the maximum voltage could cause product failure. Exceeding the reflow temperature profile could cause product failure which is not immediately evident. Do not make any physical or electrical modifications to any Linx product. This will void the warranty and regulatory and UL certifications and may cause product failure which is not immediately evident.
