Important Safety Information
The list of dangers, warnings and cautions in this section contain important information that
will help ensure safe operation of the system. Please read carefully and understand all of
these items. All installers, operators and maintenance personnel should read and understand
this information before installation, use, or maintenance of the FDL01TU system.
The FDL01TU system by itself is not inherently dangerous. HOWEVER, WHEN THE
FDL01TU IS CONNECTED TO OTHER EQUIPMENT FOR THE PURPOSE OF
CONTROL, SAFETY AND ALL POSSIBLE ASSOCIATED DANGERS MUST
ALWAYS BE GIVEN THE UTMOST CONSIDERATION DURING SYSTEM
INTEGRATION, DESIGN, INSTALLATION, AND USE.
The FDL01TU system may be used in virtually unlimited applications. Many of these
associated systems can, by themselves, pose a mechanical, electrical or other hazard to
operators and other persons or equipment. To address all possible applications and
associated safety hazards in this manual would be impossible. The warnings below and
throughout this manual give information that will allow safe installation and use the modem
system applications. If you have questions regarding the safety of your specific application,
please contact the appropriate people for help. Your Futaba sales representative,
representatives of the equipment being controlled, and the technical support staff at local
branch of Futaba Corporation are among those who can provide assistance with your safety
concerns.
The fo owing warnings are inc uded in the ists that fo ow but warrant repetition
here:
In installations where the FDL01TU system is used to control motion or operation of
potentially dangerous equipment, it is imperative for safety that all operators and installers
be thoroughly trained in the normal function of that equipment before attempting to control
it remotely with the FDL01TU system.
To help ensure safe operation of the equipment, the FDL01TU system must be connected
so that it will operate in a fail-safe way. In other words, the equipment being controlled
should stop or return to its safest state in the absence of a control signal or total loss of RF
transmission from the FDL01TU system. Our system uses one of the most reliable methods
available to transmit data using radio signals. Many factors can affect a radio signal that
may block it or interfere enough to disrupt regular transmission. Because of this, equipment
motion or dangerous electrical current, for example, that continues during a loss-of-signal
condition could be very dangerous.
iv
Four symbols are used in the margin of the following section and throughout the manual to
indicate the level of hazard or information listed.
The symbols are defined as follows:
Indicates a hazard that will cause severe personal injury, death, or
substantial property damage if the warning is ignored.

Installation Safety Hazards and Notes
When mounting the FDL01TU modem, use M2 (ISO screws that
project 2 to 3 mm into the modem. Screws that project further into
the modem (3.5mm MAX may permanently damage the internal
components and/or cause the FDL01TU modem to malfunction.
Use only the proper regulated DC voltage supplied to the FDL01TU
modem. Use of any other voltage may permanently damage the
modem and/or cause the modem to malfunction and create a shock or
fire hazard.
Be certain that all AC power outlets used the power adapters have
been properly installed, grounded, and fused. An electrical shock
hazard may exist if this unit is powered by a faulty power outlet or
source. If such a situation is discovered, immediately discontinue use
until the power source and outlet have been properly installed,
grounded, and fused by an electrician or other authorized person.
Be sure to wire the power and serial connections correctly. Incorrect
wiring can damage the system, cause it to malfunction and/or create
a shock and fire hazard.
Ensure that the FDL01TU modem power and the power to the
equipment to be controlled is turned off before connecting or
disconnecting the cable between them. This will help prevent
vi
accidental damage to the system and unexpected operation and/or
injury.
Be sure the FDL01TU modem power, the power to the equipment
that is being connecting to it, and the DC power source are all turned
off before wiring and connecting the power cable.
Be sure that the supplied power is within the specified range (3.5 to
7.0 VDC . Voltages outside the specified range may damage the
FDL01TU modem.
Be sure that the power source has sufficient current capacity.
Insufficient current may cause the unit to malfunction.
Securely attach the antenna cable, and serial communication
connector to the FDL01TU modem and equipment/power source to
which it is connected. Failure to do so could cause an unexpected
system failure.
II.III
Antenna Installation Hazards and Notes
Be sure to keep all systems and antennas clear of power lines.
Permanent equipment damage and severe shock injury or death can
occur if the system contacts power lines.
This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a
maximum gain of 2.14 dB. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly
prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance
is 50 ohms.
Contact Futaba before connecting any antenna not provided by
Futaba specifically for the FDL01TU modem. Attaching any non-
authorized antenna may be in violation of FCC regulations.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type
and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically
radiated power (e.i.r.p. is not more than that permitted for successful
communication.
When using two antennas with a single FDL01TU modem for
diversity reception, mount the antennas as far apart as possible (6 cm
minimum . If the antennas are too close, the diversity advantage will
not be achieved.
vii
Before each use, verify that the antenna (and antenna cable, if used
is securely attached and in good condition. A loose antenna or cable
may severely reduce the operating range of the system.
When installing the FDL01TU modem in a mobile unit such as an
Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV , Futaba recommends to use the
diversity reception feature as a remedy for multipath fading problems.
For diversity reception, install the two antennas as far apart as
possible in order to gain maximum benefit (6 cm minimum .
The FDL01TU operates at frequencies in the 2.4 GHz band. These
frequencies are more directional than lower frequencies and are
easily reflected. If there are metal structures nearby, the effective
range may be shortened or the directional properties may be further
narrowed. To help avoid this, mount the antenna as far away as
possible from surrounding metallic structures.
Multipath problems occur easily at frequencies in the 2.4 GHz band.
When multipath problems are present, moving the antenna as little as
10 cm may result in improved communication or, conversely,
worsened or complete loss of communication. Futaba recommends
that the mounting position of the antenna be determined after testing
and verifying optimal communication conditions. Negative multipath
effects can also be overcome with antenna diversity. See p.8

and the related register settings for
more details regarding antenna diversity function.
When installing multiple FDL01TU modem systems that will use
different frequency groups in the same area, modem’s antennas of
different frequency groups must be mounted at least 6 feet (2 meters
apart. Failure to do so may severely reduce the modem operating
range.
Please contact Futaba for information about antenna separation when
using the FDL01TU and other wireless products in the same area.

The FDL01TU modem is a precision electronic device with a rugged
design that is intended for industrial applications. However, do not
install it where it will encounter excessive vibrations. In some cases,
isolation mounts may be used to isolate the modem from the
equipment’s vibration. Excessive vibration can permanently damage
the modem and/or cause it to malfunction.
Do not operate the FDL01TU modem in environments where it will
be subjected to excessive moisture (such as rain or water spray , dust,
oil, or other foreign matter (such as metal particles . Doing so may
permanently damage the modem and/or cause it to malfunction. If it
does become wet or contaminated, correct the situation, verify proper
operation and have any problems corrected before using it to control
other equipment. If necessary, the modem can be mounted inside a
protective or waterproof enclosure. If the enclosure is metallic, the
antenna must be mounted externally or the effective operating range
will be severely limited.
The FDL01TU is designed for indoor use. When using it outdoors,
the modem should be mounted in a waterproof enclosure and the
ambient temperature range should be checked to insure that it is
within the modem’s specifications. Always use the modem within its
specified environmental ranges.
