Users Manual

Trusted Transportation Solutions 16-6200-012 Rev X2 1/20 JED Installation Instructions TransCore’s JED is an IAG radio frequency identification (RFID) tag with integrated technology for easy user configuration. The JED can be configured with a 3-position switch, allowing users to manually select from 3 options. It is also available in a non-switchable case. A multi-color LED can be included in the case configuration when visual feedback is desired. General Installation Information Metallized Windshields: Some vehicle windshields contain a metallic treatment that could prevent an interior windshield-mounted tag from working correctly. If you have a vehicle with a metallized windshield, you may need to install an exterior tag on your vehicle instead of the interior windshield-mounted tag. Contact your local tag customer service center for more information. Metal-Free Zone: Some vehicles with metallized windshields have a metal-free zone, usually located near the rearview mirror. If your windshield has this zone, center the tag in that area and follow the installation instructions listed in these pages. Tinted Windshield: Some vehicles have a metallic tint across the top of the windshield that might interfere with reading the tag. If your windshield has this metallic tint, install the tag at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) below the tinted area. Nonmetallic tint does not affect tag performance. Metal Sun Visors: Some vehicles have an exterior-mounted sun visor that might interfere with reading the tag. If your vehicle has this visor, mount the tag at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) below the visor. Installation Instructions 2 Tag Installation and Removal Procedures The JED tag is designed for mounting to a vehicle’s interior windshield surface. It may be equipped with 3M™ Dual Lock™, hook-and-loop, or suction cups. Required Supplies • JED • Commercial glass cleaner and paper towels Installing the Tag Choose the location for your tag (Figure 1). The tag should be mounted approximately 1 inch (2.54 cm) below the rear view mirror post. Clean and dry the interior windshield surface completely before mounting the tag. The windshield temperature must be at least 68ºF (20ºC) for optimum bonding. Dual lock or hook-and-loop mounting strips 1. Peel the backing from the mounting strips to expose adhesive (Figure 2). Leave both sides of the strips pressed together to ensure the strips will align between the tag and the windshield. Apply the tag to the windshield using moderate pressure. Figure 1 Optimum Locations for Tag Performance TA0445 Figure 2 Peel backing from mounting strips to expose adhesive 3 JED Tag 2. Hold the tag so that the printed text or image is right side up and facing toward you ( Figure 3). Press the tag against the windshield and hold for 10 seconds. Note: When installing the tag using the mounting strips for the first time, leave the tag in place for at least 24 hours to allow the adhesive to cure. Suction cups 1. Hold the tag so that the printed text or image is right side up and facing toward you (Figure 3). 2. Moisten the cups and stick the tag to the windshield. 3. Press the tag against the windshield and hold for 10 seconds. Removing the Tag To remove a tag installed with mounting strips from the windshield, grip the tag at the top and bottom sides. Gently lift the tag away from the windshield on one end until the tag is free from the windshield. To remove a tag installed with suction cups, slide a finger under the tab on the suction cup to loosen it from the windshield surface.

February 4, 2020 Timco Engineering Inc. 849 NW State Road 45 Newberry, FL 32669 Applicant: Transcore - Amtech Technology Center 8600 Jefferson Street NE Albuquerque, New Mexico 87113 Re: Confidentiality request for FCC ID: FIH051064S Dear Sirs: Transcore Amtech Technology Center requests that the material in the Block Diagram, Operational Description, Parts List, Schematics, and Tune Procedure be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to Sections 0.457 and 0.459 of the Commission’s Rules following grant of the application. In support of this request, Transcore Amtech Technology Center submits the following information. CONFIDENTIAL FILES Block Diagram 051064S Conf BlkDia.pdf Operational Description 051064S Conf OpDes.pdf Parts List 051064S Conf PartsList.pdf Schematics 051064S Conf Schem.pdf Tune Procedure 051064S Conf TunPro.pdf 1. Identification of the specific information for which confidential treatment is sought: The materials set forth in the Block Diagram, Operational Description, Parts List, Schematics, and Tune Procedure which are segregated, from the non-confidential exhibits of the application, are those for which confidentiality is sought. 2. Identification of the Commission proceeding in which the information was submitted or a description of the circumstances giving rise to the submission: The proceeding is that involving the application for equipment authorization (certification) under FCC ID No: FIH051064S 3. Explanation of the degree to which the information is commercial or financial, or contains a trade secret or is privileged: This material includes Block Diagram, Operational Description, Parts List, Schematics, and Tune Procedure. As such, this material is treated as highly confidential business information. ROGERS LABS, INC. 4405 West 259 th Terrace Louisburg, KS 66053 4. Explanation of the degree to which the information concerns a service that is subject to competition: The material for which confidentiality is sought is employed in the design and manufacture of this transmitting equipment that is offered on a highly competitive basis. Customers for this equipment have a variety of competing sources. 5. Explanation of how disclosure of the information could result in substantial competitive harm: Disclosure would, in effect, give away the fruits of the labors of Transcore Amtech Technology Center engineering personnel, who have designed the equipment and the manufacturing process. Disclosure would also offer competitors additional unwarranted insight into the state of the product development, thereby allowing competitors an advantage, not available to Transcore Amtech Technology Center. 6. Identification of any measures taken by the submitting party to prevent unauthorized disclosure: The information for which confidential treatment is sought is kept confidential by Transcore Amtech Technology Center and not made available to third parties except pursuant to non-disclosure agreements. 7. Identification of whether the information is available to the public and the extent of any previous disclosure of the information to third parties: To the knowledge of those preparing this application, the information has not been disclosed publicly heretofore. While the general theory of operation of this equipment has been the subject of numerous disclosures in industry and standards groups as well as in rule making proceedings of the FCC, the protection sought is narrowly drawn and pertains to certain specific implementations of this radio technology. 8. Justification of the period during which the submitting party asserts that the material should not be available for public disclosure: This material should not be disclosed for at least 25 years. While improvements in design are made relatively frequently, disclosure of the design information would lead to insights into both design and manufacturing techniques that could have an adverse competitive effect for many years to come. This equipment is designed for commercial, industrial, and governmental applications. As such, unlike most consumer equipment, this equipment could be used for more than a decade in some cases. As such, it is important that the design not be made available to unauthorized persons who might attempt to use knowledge of the design to compromise the applications for which the equipment will be employed. Should you require any further information, please contact the undersigned. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, Scot Rogers
