Product Description: FCC ID: AZ489FT4869 model F4714A is an automatic meter reader (AMR) transmitter operating in the 450- 470MHz band. This device incorporates frequency modulated DPSK signaling with 12.5KHz channel separation. The device utilizes a logic circuit interface that is used to trigger a single pulse-type meter. The maximum transmission duty cycle of this device is based on a one second pulse transmitted once every 4 hours (0.06% - 30 minute time averaged). The nominal power of this device is 100mW with a maximum output power of 120mW. This device uses a fixed external ½ wave wire antenna and is powered by a 3.6V Lithium Ion battery. The intended use is mounted on a wall or installed in a pit per the user manual instructions. While this product will be marketed to and used by employees solely for work related operations such as public agencies and utilities, it also meets the General Population/Uncontrolled limits. User training is the responsibility of these agencies, who can be expected to employ the usage instructions, safety information and operational cautions set forth in the user's manual, instructional sessions or other means. Motorola also makes available to its customers training classes on the proper use of two-way radios and wireless data devices. Certificate No. 1449-01 Form Regulatory Compliance Summary Rpt 2 Rev 1.0 3of 3 Offered accessories Antenna Model Description 1587508V79 450-470MHz ½ wave antenna; 10cm; 0dBd FHN6584A Pit antenna kit Justification for test exclusion: The following conservative power density free-space formula, as referenced in OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01, 1997, was used to determine if the potential power density of this product could exceed the MPE limits for the general population/uncontrolled exposure classification. S is the power density at d distance away from an antenna with an output power of Pt and gain of Gt. To provide a conservative estimate of the power density the factor F should be set to 4 to account for the superposition of a reflected and a line-of-sight wave. This would result in twice the E field, or four times the power density. This is a conservative approach, since it assumes perfect reflection and no added path loss of the reflected signal. This formula is applicable if the user is in the far-field, and it gives a conservative over estimation if the person is in the near field. Using this equation with F = 4 offers "a truly worst-case prediction of power density". The example presented below applies the worst case parameters for this device to the above formula and demonstrates compliance to the applicable standard. Input variables: Maximum Power output = 0.120 Duty Cycle (30 minutes time averaged limit) = 0.06% Lowest Frequency = 450MHz Antenna gain = 0dBd Distance (cm) = 20 Result = 8.7E-05 mW/cm^2 Conclusion: The maximum permissible exposure for uncontrolled environments is 0.30 mW/cm^2 and 1.5 mW/cm^2 for controlled environments.
