Cognosos PCA-10017 Radio Module User’s Manual The PCA-10017 Radio Module is a small, battery powered 433MHz UHF and 2.4GHz BLE transceiver with integrated sensors. This module is extremely low power and is used to create end devices that operate on Cognosos’ radio networks. The baseline application for the end products includes asset tracking and sensor network applications. In use, a combination of events trigger the module to gather and relay sensor data to a Cognosos’ radio network. The PCA-10017 module communicates over a long-range UHF waveform. The BLE radio provides short range, higher data rate communication. Each communication mode is internally limited for compliance with the associated FCC/IC regulations. The end application may use the various transmission methods to communicate operational events, provide event-based alerts, assist device localization, or for system interrogation and maintenance. The Radio Module also contains an L1 GPS receiver with SAW and LNA on board. The GPS receiver is used for localization information. Product Models: For compatibility with multiple end-product designs, the PCA-10017 module comes in several variants, with the only difference being the direction the LEDs face or population of the optional serial port connector. Contact Cognosos at www.cognosos.com for more detailed information. Operational Modes Tracker Tag – This is the default mode of the PCA-10017. The tag is highly configurable with use case profiles. Profiles change device operation within regulatory requirements. Typically, profiles are used to enable or disable certain behaviors and reported data related to motion. As per FCC rules, devices only send UHF data with physical user interaction. Storage Mode – The PCA-10017 in tracker tag mode will sleep if the device is in the storage mode orientation. This orientation is dictated by the profile configuration. This mode is useful for transport and storage to minimize battery life. BLE Activator Mode – The PCA-10017 can act as a ‘BLE Activator’. In this mode, a configurable BLE advertisement will be sent per the BLE specifications. This activator is meant to provide contextual information to another PCA-10017 to aid with asset localization. Rev 2 System Operation A system comprises of multiple PCA-10017’s. An end-product containing a PCA-10017 will be installed onto an asset that is desired to be tracked. A gateway device will receive UHF messages from PCA-10017’s to determine the location of that asset. Additional PCA-10017’s configured in activator mode will provide localization support and influence the packet data sent to the gateway. In some cases the activator message will contain enough contextual information to bypass the GPS sequence. Host Integration: The PCA-10017 module is always integrated into a host device. When connecting to a host device, the following connections are made: PCA-10017 Module Connections Rev 2 Power: To power the module, apply 2.0-3.6 VDC across the VDC input and ground terminals. The module is protected against reverse voltage connection. Energizer L91 batteries should be used. Mounting: Two size 4 screw holes are provided for module mounting. Antennas: All antennas are integrated on the PCA-10017 module. For maximum performance, care should be taken to avoid metal in the area of the antennas. FCC and IC Labeling Requirements: When the PCA-10017 module is used in a host product, the host product is required to display “Contains FCC ID: 2AKFQ10017” and “Contains IC: 22165-10017” respectively to comply with FCC and IC rules.

Model: PCA-10017 Page 4 of 4 Simultaneous Transmission Collocation considerations: Please either confirm that the transmitters operate standalone per KDB 447498 D01 v06 section 7.1 or, if the transmitters can transmit simultaneously, include the necessary calculations for simultaneous transmission per KDB 447498 D01 v06 section 7.2. Please either confirm that the transmitters operate standalone or, if the transmitters can transmit simultaneously, include the necessary calculations for simultaneous transmission per ISED RSS-102 issue 5 section 3.1.2. The Transmitters do simultaneously broadcast but not at the same frequency. The device has two radios on board, however each radio transmits in a separate frequency band either 433-435 MHz or 2400-2483.5 MHz. The radios also do not share a common antenna. Each radio broadcast from its own antenna. Calculations for simultaneous transmission per KDB 447498 D01 v06 section 7.2 is provided here to show that Simultaneous transmission MPE test exclusion applies since the sum of the MPE ratios for all simultaneously transmitting antennas incorporated in a host device is ≤ 1.0. Per ISED RSS-102 (I5) section 3.1.2 other recognized methods can be used to show compliance, therefore this method is used to show compliance to RSS-102. Total Sum of MPE: Sum of the total MPE for both frequency bands = 0.00427/0.29 mW/cm 2 + 0.01466/1.0 mW/cm 2 = 0.02866 which is << less than 1.0 The EUT was tested with both radio ON and active. The emissions generated with a single radio ON and active versus both radios ON and active did not produce additional unwanted spurious emissions or intermodulation that would require additional testing. The radios can be collocated as designed.

Model: PCA-10017 Page 5 of 7 Figure 5. Radiated Emissions Test Setup (200 MHz - 1 GHz) Note 1: The antenna setup is the same for both radio modes of operation. The EUT orthogonal position is changed depending on the radio mode of operation being evaluated, either BT or UHF. Note 2: For spurious emissions from 9 kHz to 25 GHz other than fundamental and harmonics, the BT radio mode of operation was used for final measurements since this mode was deemed to be the worst case operating mode for the EUT.
