CONFIDENTIAL AND PROPRIETARY – Intuitive Surgical Inc. Prior to use, use ACCS to verify that this is the current revision Template File: 853244 Form_Template Rev D.doc DOCUMENT: 818385-02 REVISION: A PAGE: 1 of 4 TITLE: Installation Instructions for RFID Module ACCRX02 The RFID module (Model: ACCRX02) is used with the host devices (model PS4000 and PS4200) and as such, required testing and approval is completed. Use with any other host device may or may not require additional testing and approval. Consult Hardware Compliance Engineering for assistance. The RFID module includes the main block (P/N 318215), the top plate (P/N 318216), the ACCR PCA (P/N 353240-08), ACCRA PCA (P/N 343460-05), the pod support (P/N 318273), and board support (P/N 318230). For instruction on how to install RFID module to the host device (PS4000 and PS4200), refer to Manufacturer Process Instruction, Carriage, Housing Assembly,USM,IS4000 (P/N 1001924) and Manufacturer Process Instruction, Carriage Integration,USM,IS4000 (P/N 844505-01). USM = Universal Surgical Manipulator (aka. Robot Arm). The label (P/N 510196-02) contains FCC ID (2AAZF-ACCRX02), IC ID (11508A- ACCRX02), and RFID Model name (ACCRX02) for identification. See Figure 1. The label having white background with black text, is affixed to the module in a manner such that it will remain adhered to the module during the expected life of the product. The minimum size of the font is 4 pt. The label is applied on the main carriage block near the ACCR PCA location. See Figure 2.

This is acceptable because FCC ID and IC ID information are also marked on the rear vent panel of the host device. See Figure 4 for example of label of the host device containing FCC ID and IC ID information of RFID module. See Figure 5 for the location. In addition, the intentional radiator symbol (see Figure 3) is also affixed along with FCC ID and IC ID information (refer to Label P/N 880175-06 for PS4000 and P/N 880341-03 for PS4200) on the host device, per EN 60601-1-2 Ed.3. This marking is readily visible to the user of the host device without the use of tools.

Intuitive Surgical 1266 Kifer Road Sunnyvale, CA 94086 T. 408 523 2100 F.408 523 1390 Intuitive.com Modular Approval Request Letter July 21, 2020 FCC ID: 2AAZF-ACCRX02, IC: 11508A-ACCRX02 Dear Sir or Madam: Limited Modular Approval is being requested for RFID module (Model: ACCRX02) and the module will be installed only in host systems manufactured by Intuitive Surgical Inc. The following paragraphs detail the requirements for modules and explain how the module meets those requirements. Where requirements are not met a justification for a limited modular approval is presented. FCC §15.212 Requirements for Single Modular Transmitters (includes RSS GEN Section 3.2.2) (a) Single modular transmitters consist of a completely self-contained radiofrequency transmitter device that is typically incorporated into another product, host or device. Split modular transmitters consist of two components: a radio front end with antenna (or radio devices) and a transmitter control element (or specific hardware on which the software that controls the radio operation resides). All single or split modular transmitters are approved with an antenna. All of the following requirements apply, except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section. (1) Single modular transmitters must meet the following requirements to obtain a modular transmitter approval. (i) The radio elements of the modular transmitter must have their own shielding. The physical crystal and tuning capacitors may be located external to the shielded radio elements. Yes. The module has a shield consisting of the carriage frame. (ii) The modular transmitter must have buffered modulation/data inputs (if such inputs are provided) to ensure that the module will comply with part 15 requirements under conditions of excessive data rates or over-modulation. Yes. Data to the modulation circuit is buffered on the module inside component U1 on the schematic (Mfg: NXP, Model: CLRC66303HNE) Intuitive Surgical 1266 Kifer Road Sunnyvale, CA 94086 T. 408 523 2100 F.408 523 1390 Intuitive.com (iii) The modular transmitter must have its own power supply regulation. Yes. The module contains its own power supply regulation and RF reference oscillator is contained within the module. Power supply regulation is provided via pin 18 of U1 on the schematic (Mfg: NXP Model: CLRC66303HNE) (iv) The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna and transmission system requirements of §§15.203, 15.204(b) and 15.204(c). The antenna must either be permanently attached or employ a “unique” antenna coupler (at all connections between the module and the antenna, including the cable). The “professional installation” provision of §15.203 is not applicable to modules but can apply to limited modular approvals under paragraph (b) of this section. The module connects to its antenna via Connector Header Surface Mount, Right Angle 2 position 0.079" (2.00mm). This connector is a non-standard connector. The antenna is a PCB-trace loop antenna (13.72 mm x 8.64 mm) with Q Factor < 10 at 13.56MH. Installation instructions for the module explain that only these antennas may be used with the device and that the end user shall not be able to access the antenna port or change antennas. (v) The modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e., the module must not be inside another device during testing for compliance with part 15 requirements. Unless the transmitter module will be battery powered, it must comply with the AC line conducted requirements found in §15.207. AC or DC power lines and data input/output lines connected to the module must not contain ferrites, unless they will be marketed with the module (see §15.27(a)). The length of these lines shall be the length typical of actual use or, if that length is unknown, at least 10 centimeters to insure that there is no coupling between the case of the module and supporting equipment. Any accessories, peripherals, or support equipment connected to the module during testing shall be unmodified and commercially available (see §15.31(i)). Test data contained in this application is for the device tested in a stand-alone configuration. Radiated spurious emissions data and AC conducted emissions data demonstrating compliance with the requirements of Part 15 of the FCC rules for intentional radiators and RSS GEN/RSS 210 has been provided. (vi) The modular transmitter must be equipped with either a permanently affixed label or must be capable of electronically displaying its FCC identification number. (A) If using a permanently affixed label, the modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC identification number, and, if the FCC identification number is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: XYZMODEL1” or “Contains FCC ID: XYZMODEL1.” Any similar wording Intuitive Surgical 1266 Kifer Road Sunnyvale, CA 94086 T. 408 523 2100 F.408 523 1390 Intuitive.com that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. (B) If the modular transmitter uses an electronic display of the FCC identification number, the information must be readily accessible and visible on the modular transmitter or on the device in which it is installed. If the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device int…
