However, please note the last sentence of the Article 4.3 paragraph, "Demonstration may only take place provided that adquate measures are taken to avoid electromagnetic disturbances." This could mean that operation of these devices may be limited to faraday cages, screen rooms, 30 meters away from anything, etc (the text is not at all clear on that point). That doesn't seem practical as most of these eval boards will likely be operated in an engineering lab type of environment being used by engineers.

The text applies to equipment *demonstrated* (perhaps in exhibitions - this is something that the German industry has a fixation on, due to past experience of Clipboard Man shutting down costly exhibition stands).

The test is actually clear, but the clarity is in the BIG word 'adequate'. If cage, screened room, large separation are necessary, then they are required, if not, not.
