X-10 Building Labour Industrial District Shenzhen, Xixiang, Bao An Guang Dong, China, 518102 TEST SPECIFICATION: FCC Rules and Regulations Part 15, Subpart C, Para. 15.231 TEST PROCEDURE: ANSI C63.4:1992 TEST SAMPLE DESCRIPTION BRANDNAME: X-10 (USA), Inc. MODEL: CM17A TYPE: 310 MHz RF Transmitter POWER REQUIREMENTS: 5 VDC derived from Host PC FREQUENCY OF OPERATION: 310 MHz TESTS PERFORMED Para. 15.207(a), AC Line Conducted Emissions Para. 15.231(a), Radiated Emissions, Fundamental and Harmonics Para. 15.231(c), Occupied Bandwidth Duty Cycle Determination REPORT OF MEASUREMENTS Applicant: X-10 (USA), Inc. Device:310 MHz Wireless Computer Interface FCC ID: B4SCM17A Power Requirements: 5 VDC Applicable Rule Section:Part 15, Subpart C, Section 15.231 Test Report No. R-7977-1 FCC ID: B4SCM17A REPORT OF MEASUREMENTS (continued) TEST RESULTS 15.231 (a) -The device is used as a transmitter for security purposes. 15.231 (a)(1) & -The transmitter is manually operated and ceases transmission within 5 15.231(2)seconds after deactivation. 15.231 (a)(3) - The transmitter does not perform periodic transmissions. 15.231 (a)(4)-The device is employed for RC purposes involving security. 15.231 (b) -The fundamental field strength did not exceed 5900 μV/M (Average) at a test distance of 3 meters. In addition, the requirements of section 15.35 for averaging pulsed emissions and for limiting peak emissions were met. The field strength of harmonic and spurious emissions did not exceed 590 μV/M (AVERAGE). 15.231 (c) -The device operates at 310 MHz. The bandwidth of emissions did not exceed 0.25% of the operating frequency (775 kHz). DETERMINATION OF FIELD STRENGTH LIMITS The field strength limits shown below are found in Section 15.231. Frequency Limit F1=2603750 =L1 Fo=311.6Lo F2=47012500 =L2 The formula below was utilized to determine the limits: Limit = L1 + [(Fo-F1)(L2-L1)/(F2-F1)] Solving yields: Fundamental Limit= 5,900 μV/M (AVERAGE) @ 3 Meters Harmonic Limit= 590 μV/M (AVERAGE) @ 3 Meters Test Report No. R-7977-1 FCC ID: B4SCM17A REPORT OF MEASUREMENTS (continued) DETERMINATION OF DUTY CYCLE The unit’s RF output was directly coupled to the input of the spectrum analyzer. The analyzer was set for a frequency span of 0Hz. The sweep time was then adjusted in order to display one full pulse train. The transmitter on time was then summed and compared to the time for one full cycle in order to obtain the duty cycle. Transmitter On Time=32.1 milliseconds (maximum- worst case in 100 ms) Transmitter Cycle Time=111.2 milliseconds Transmitter Duty Cycle=32.1 % CALCULATION: 1 Large Pulse = 9.0 milliseconds 33 x 700 μs (small pulse)= 23.1 milliseconds 9.0 + 23.1 = 32.1 milliseconds Duty Cycle=32.1 % Correction Factor = -9.9 db (.321 log 20 = -9.9) SPECTRUM ANALYZER DESENSITIZATION CONSIDERATIONS Due to the nature of the emissions being measured, care was taken to ensure that the resolution bandwidth of the spectrum analyzer was adequate to provide accurate measurements. The following formula was utilized: Setting pulse desensitization equal to zero and utilizing the minimum observed pulse width of 700μs yields a minimum required bandwidth of 952.4 Hz. FCC specified bandwidths of 100kHz and 1MHz were utilized below and above 1GHz, respectively. Test Report No. R-7977-1 FCC ID: B4SCM17A REPORT OF MEASUREMENTS (continued) GENERAL NOTES 1. All readings were taken utilizing a peak detector function at a test distance of 3 meters. 2. The duty cycle was applied to the peak readings in order to determine the average value of the emissions. 3. All measurements were made with 5 VDC being derived from the support PC. 4. The frequency range was scanned from 30 MHz to 3.1 GHz . All emissions not reported were more than 20 dB below the specified limit.
