Safety instructions

All the pertinent safety instructions can be found in
the separate manual "Important notes on and safety
instructions for Bosch Test Equipment". These instruc-
tions must be carefully studied prior to start-up, con-
nection and operation of the BEA 060 and must always
be heeded.
2.3 R&TTE Directive
The BEA 060 is a class 2 wireless device (R&TTE
1999/55/EC) approved for use in Europe. In France, use
of the BEA 060 is only permissible indoors.
i
In non-European countries the corresponding nation-
al regulations on the operation of wireless devices
in the 2.4 GHz frequency band must be heeded (e.g.
WLAN or Bluetooth).

2.4 Important information on Bluetooth
Bluetooth provides a radio link on the free 2.4 GHz ISM
band (ISM: Industrial, Scientific, Medical). This fre-
quency range is not subject to state legislation and can
be used in most countries without a licence (for excep-
tions, refer to Section 2.3). Consequently a large num-
ber of applications and devices employ this frequency
band for transmission. This can result in frequency
interference.
Depending on ambient conditions, the Bluetooth link
may therefore deteriorate, e.g. in the case of WLAN
links (WLAN: Wireless Local Area Network), cordless
telephones, radio-controlled thermometers, radio-
controlled garage door openers, radio-controlled light
switches or radio-controlled alarm systems.
i
Bluetooth can cause bandwidth collapse in the
WLAN network. The antennas of Bluetooth and
WLAN devices should be at least 30 centimeters
apart. Bluetooth USB adapters and WLAN sticks
are not to be plugged into adjacent PC/Laptop USB
slots. Use the USB extension cable (special acces-
sory) to maintain a distance between the Bluetooth
USB adapter and the WLAN stick at the PC/Laptop.
i
Extreme caution is to be taken if wearing pacemak-
ers or other vital electronic devices when using radio
systems, as proper functioning of these items could
be impaired.
Pay attention to the following to ensure the best pos-
sible connection:
1. The Bluetooth radio signal always tries to find the
most direct path. When setting up the PC/Laptop
with Bluetooth USB adapter make sure there are
as few obstacles as possible (e.g. steel doors and
concrete walls) which could interfere with the radio
signal from and to the BEA 060.
2. If the PC is standing on a Bosch trolley (e.g. BEA 950),
the Bluetooth USB adapter should be connected by
way of a USB connecting cable from outside the trolley.
Use is to be made for this purpose of the USB connect-
ing cable (special accessory) 1 684 465 564 (1 m) or
1 684 465 565 (3 m).
3. In the event of problems with the Bluetooth link, the
USB link can be activated and used instead of the
Bluetooth connection.
4. It is not possible to operate any other Bluetooth
hardware fitted in or plugged into the PC/Laptop.
