Frogparking Limited – Proprietary and Confidential July 2013 4 1. Wireless Link Installation The Wireless Link is an essential part of the Frogparking system, providing the bridge between the sensors and the web based management system. Installing a Wireless Link involves several key steps: 1. Fit the SIM Card 2. Register the Wireless Link on the Frogparking system 3. Mount the Wireless Link Instructions for each step are given below. Fitting the SIM Card If you are supplying your own SIM card for the Wireless Link data services, this will need to be fitted. Follow the below steps to fit the SIM card... Remove the mounting bracket If the Wireless Link was shipped with its mounting bracket attached, use a No.2 Philips screwdriver to remove the 4 screws holding the bracket in place. Remove the bracket taking care not to damage the antenna (if fitted). If the antenna is not fitted – fit it now. Remove the circuit board and battery sub assembly Using a No.1 Philips screwdriver, remove the 2 screws holding the sub assembly in place. 1 2 Frogparking Limited – Proprietary and Confidential July 2013 5 Carefully slide out the sub assembly taking care not to damage the circuit board. Insert the SIM card The SIM card holder is located near the end of the board on the side facing in towards the battery. Insert the SIM card so that the contacts are facing down and the chamfer on the corner of the card is to the outside of the board. It is a good idea to check the operation of the Wireless Link with the SIM card prior to mounting the Wireless Link, as once mounted it will be more difficult to reach and the LED’s are not visible. See the later section on Registering the Wireless Link for further details. Registering the Wireless Link To register a Wireless Link on the Frogparking system, the Frogparking installer app. is required on a Galaxy Samsung S3 or S4. Follow the below steps to register, setup and activate the Wireless Link. These steps presume the SIM card has already been fitted and the Wireless Link is ready for operation. If the Wireless Link’s antenna has not yet been fitted, fit the antenna now. 3 Frogparking Limited – Proprietary and Confidential July 2013 6 Start the Frogparking Installer app, log in and navigate to the install gateway screen Scan the gateway... 1 2 scan here Frogparking Limited – Proprietary and Confidential July 2013 7 Enter the settings... The appropriate APN to access the SIM cards data services An ID number to identify the SIM card, typically the number printed on the SIM card. The user name for the data services (if any) The password for the data services (if any) If it is desirable for the gateway to have custom operational hours outside of the default settings for the organization, un-tick the ‘Default Times’ box and use the ‘Set Wake Up Time’ and ‘Set Sleep Time’ buttons to define the appropriate times.

RF Exposure Info

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Page 17 of 24 Test Report No 130908.3 17 th January 2014 This report may not be reproduced except in full. Section 15.247(i) – Radio Frequency Hazard Information As per Section 15.247 (i) Spread spectrum transmitters operating in the 902 – 928 MHz band are required to be operated in a manner that ensures that the public is not exposed to RF energy levels in accordance with CFR 47, Section 1.1307(b)(1). In accordance with this section, and also Section 2.1091, this device has been defined as a mobile device whereby a distance of 20 cm or greater can normally be maintained between the user and the device. This transmitter would normally mounted at road level underneath parked vehicles. In accordance with Section 1.1310 the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits for the General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure of f/1500 have been applied. The maximum distance from the antenna at which the MPE is met or exceeded is calculated from the equation relating field strength in V/m, transmit power in watts, transmit antenna gain and separation distance in metres: E, V/m = (! (30 * P * G)) / d Power density, mW/cm 2 = E 2 /3770 E for MPE: (921/1500) = E 2 /3770 E = !(921/1500)*3770 E = 48.1 V/m The maximum radiated power measured was +20.5 dBm or 0.1122 Watts Therefore: E = ! (30 * P * G) / d d = ! (30 * P * G) / E d = ! (30 * 0.1122) / 48.1 d = 0.038 m or 3.8 cm In order to meet the MPE requirements a minimum safe distance of at least 20 cm will be required. Result: Complies.
