The FWMD Motion Detector sends Wireless Radio Frequency (RF) signals to a Black&Decker Messenger Hub FWMH). The Hub then passes the signals onto your house wiring to turn on lights, appliances, or Freewire wireless cameras around your home. You plug your lights and appliances into Freewire Modules (sold separately). You can set the Motion Detector to turn the lights or cameras off after motion stops. You can set this for a preset time of 1, 2, 4, 8 minutes etc., (see below for more details). You can set the unit to work at all times or only at night. Installation: Remove the screw from the bottom of the FWMD Motion Detector. Remove the battery cover and install two AAA alkaline batteries. Observe polarity. Leave the cover off for now. Plug in a Messenger Hub (FWMH, sold separately) and set it to Housecode A, and Unit Code 1. Plug a lamp into a Freewire Lamp Receiver (sold separately) and set it to Housecode A and Unit Code 1. Plug the module into any AC outlet. Synchronize the Motion Detector to work with the Hub: Set the Hub to Learn. Press the Synchronize button on the Motion Detector. The green indicator on the Hub flashes. Set the Hub back to Run. To test the Motion Detector: Press the Synchronize button once. The Motion Detector transmits the “device ON” RF signal and its red light flashes. Press the Synchronize button once again. The Motion Detector transmits the “device OFF” RF signal and its red light flashes. If you set a Hub and a Lamp Receiver to A1 they will both turn on and off when you repeatedly press the Synchronize button on the Motion Detector. Place the Motion Detector on a shelf or mount it on a wall at least 6 feet above the ground. Let it settle for a minute and then walk past it. The lamp connected to any Lamp Receiver set to A1, or a camera set to A1 turns on. The light or camera turns off a short time later as long as no motion has been detected. The default time is 1 minute but you can change this (see below for more details). You can now screw the Motion Detector to a wall and replace the battery cover. To change the Unit Code that the Motion Detector transmits: Turn its dial to any number (1-16). To change the delay after motion is detected before an OFF code is transmitted: Turn the dial on the Motion Detector to the desired setting: 0 (no off code sent), 1 minute, 2 minutes, 4 minutes, 8 minutes, 16 minutes, 32 minutes, 64 minutes, 128 minutes. 256 minutes. To change when the Motion Detector detects motion: Set the switch inside the battery compartment to “24Hr” if you want the Motion detector to detect motion at all times. Set the switch to “Night” if you only want it to detect motion when its dark (be sure to place the unit in a place where it can see if its dark outside, and don’t place it near the light that it turns on when it detects motion. Dusk/Dawn sensing: If you set the “off delay” to 0 AND set the Motion Detector to only work when its dark, it will not detect any motion at all, but will instead turn on a light when it gets dark and turn it off when it gets light. The light it controls it set by the position of its Unit Code dial (1-16) and the setting of the Housecode dial on the Hub (A-P). NOTES: After replacing batteries, and after a transmission, you need to wait 30 seconds before the Motion Detector will see any motion. The default time after which an OFF code is sent is 1 minute. When the Motion Detector turns on a camera, other cameras in a group of 3 turn off, but you might not want the Motion Detector to turn cameras off after motions stops, best to set the off delay to 0 minutes when using the Motion Detector with cameras. If the Hub is set to Learn, and the Motion Detector sees motion, it will synchronize itself to the Hub, i.e. you won’t need to press its Synchronize button to Synchronize it.

FWMD Operational Description The FWMD is a 418 MHz pulsed RF transmitter which is activated by a motion Detector. The transmitter sends a code to the Messenger Hub which in turn activates the appropriate appliances(lights, cameras, etc) . The internal MCUs receive information from the motion detector and convert the information into a pulse code. The pulse code is then sent to the 418 MHz RF transmitter and is used to pulse modulate the 418 MHz carrier.

Device: Pulsed Transmitter FCC ID: B4SFWMD Power Requirements: 2 "AAA" Batteries Applicable Rule Section: Part 15, Subpart C, Section 15.231 TEST RESULTS 15.231 (a): This device is used as a security transmitter. 15.231 (a)(1) & The transmitter is automatically operated and ceases transmission within 5 15.231(a)(2): seconds after deactivation. 15.231 (a)(3): The transmitter does not perform periodic transmissions. 15.231 (b): The fundamental field strength did not exceed 10,333 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 1,033 μV/M (AVERAGE). DETERMINATION OF FIELD STRENGTH LIMITS The field strength limits shown below are found in Section 15.231. Frequency Limit F1 = 260 3750 = L1 Fo = 418 Lo F2 = 470 12500 = L2 Test Report No. R-10116-1 FCC ID: B4SFWMD REPORT OF MEASUREMENTS (continued) The formula below was utilized to determine the limits: Limit = L1 + [(Fo-F1)(L2-L1)/(F2-F1)] Solving yields: Fundamental Limit = 10,333 μV/M (AVERAGE) @ 3 Meters Harmonic Limit = 1,033 μV/M (AVERAGE) @ 3 Meters DUTY CYCLE DETERMINATION 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 = 43.7 milliseconds (maximum) Transmitter Cycle Time = 115.5 milliseconds Transmitter Duty Cycle = 36.4 % See separate e-file plots named dutycycle.pdf for additional information. Test Report No. R-10116-1 FCC ID: B4SFWMD 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 650 μs yields a minimum required bandwidth of 1,026 Hz. FCC specified bandwidths of 100 kHz and 1 MHz were utilized below and above 1 GHz, respectively. GENERAL NOTES All readings were taken utilizing a peak detector function at a test distance of 3 meters. The duty cycle was applied to the peak readings in order to determine the average value of the emissions. The frequency range was scanned from 30 MHz to 4.18 GHz. All emissions not reported were more than 20 dB below the specified limit.
