Infant Protection Bracelet User Guide Part Numbers: 5-BTC00433-A, 5-BTC00433 Elpas Active RFID Solutions Page 1 of 4 BTC03U01 General Overview The Elpas Infant Protection Bracelet from Visonic Technologies (VT) is a rechargeable miniature, unified active long-range Radio Frequency (RFID) and Infrared device. The bracelet provides 24/7 infant protection by tracking the real-time location of newborns in maternity wards and by generating mother-baby mismatch alarms. The Infant Protection Bracelet is comprised of a rechargeable tag and a di sposable, anti-tamper, adjustable band made of skin-safe non-latex materials that can be retightened should the baby loose weight. When worn by the newborn, the bracelet automatically transmits removal alert notifications for keeping facility personnel informed of deliberate or accidental tampering and/or removal of the baby from the protected area. The bracelet’s all-in-one, dual technology transmitter continuously emits low power, beacon type radio frequency (RF) messages as well as safe, supplemental infra-red (IR) messages that identifies the exact real-time location of the new born infant This same RF/IR technologies also continuously broadcasts the operational st atus of the tag (such as whether the tag is moving or at rest, it’s battery state and the condition of its tamper wire). The bracelet's onboard magnetic low frequency (LF) receiver adds chokepoint area detection so whenever the new born infant nears a prohibited exit/entrance covered by an Elpas LF Exciter a security intervention alarm is raised. Made of tough ABS thermoplastic, the Elpas Infa nt Protection Bracelet is shower and bath proof as well as temperature stable. Small in size and weight (39.4mm long, 31.5mm wide and 14.8mm thick) is rechargeab le and includes LED visual indicators that illuminate whenever the bracelet transmits and/or when a low battery condition exists. CAUTION: It is important that you read, understand, and follow the instructions in this document. If you have questions, call your local Visonic Technologies support representative. This document is intended for trained system integrators, field service or maintenance engineers that need to troubleshoot problems in the EIRIS system, or configurations and processes. Tamper Transmissions Transmission Rate: Single burst of 4 IR/RF transmissions (eac h lasting @ 2ms) and the total burst time not exceeding 1 second. Event Transmission Rates in LF Zones Moving Bracelet LF Response Time: Onboard LF receiver activates every 0.6 seconds to check if the tag is in a LF zone. Transmission Rate: Continuous bursts of 4 messages (each lasting @ 2ms), with intervals of 400ms. Transmitted Message Type: IR/RF Data Message includes ID code of LF Exciter. Motionless Bracelet LF Response Time: Onboard LF receiver activates every 15 seconds to check if the tag is in a LF zone. Transmission Rate when in LF : Continuous bursts of 4 messages (each lasting @ 2ms), with intervals of 400ms. Transmitted Message Type : IR/RF Data Message includes ID code of LF Exciter. Comments on IR Signaling Attaining the maximum IR reception range depends mainly on direct line of sight between the transmitter and the receiver. Nevertheless, certain environments allow the signal to reach the receiver in a roundabout path, by reflection or refraction of the infrared radi ation. Tiled floors (uncarpeted), walls, smooth ceilings (not too high) can reflect IR signals reasonably well, and allowing them to be received even when the radiating source is pointed away from the receiver. Wi th good indirect reflection path, a range of 5 - 6m (15 - 18ft) is expected (with poor reflection, the range gets even shorter). The user is therefore strongly advised to point the transmitter directly at the nearest re ceiver or, if the location of the nearest receiver is unknown, to press the transmit button several times wh ile pointing the transmitte r in different directions. It is strongly recommended not install IR receiver ou tdoors, facing direct sunl ight, or near fluorescent lamps, to prevent interference to IR reception. The installer is encouraged to test the reception ra nge in the various zones and to install additional receivers if necessary. Comments on Radio Signaling Some limitations have to be considered. A. Receivers may be blocked by radio signals occurring on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of the code selected. B. A receiver can only respond to one transmitted signal at a time. C. Wireless equipment should be tested regularly (at least once a week) to determine if there are sources of interference and to protect against faults.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 September 18, 2007 RE: Visonic Inc. FCC ID: GSA5-BTC00433 After a review of the submitted information, I have a few comments on the above referenced Application. Depending on your responses, kindly understand there may be additional comments. 1) Due to various concerns recently seen about proper authority being given to others for FCC and/or IC matters, the agency letter (and ideally confidentiality letters as well) should be signed by someone traceable to have the proper authority. For instance, the FCC site shows Scott Jensen as the correct contact of authority for FCC matters. Therefore the agency letters should be signed by this contact or alternatively a letter showing who he has “deputized” (i.e. Michael Wasserstein) to sign on his behalf may be provided as well. 2) FYI....The device does not appear to be subject to DoC requirements under 15.101 and therefore should not be labeled as such. For instance, the device does not appear to be a PC peripheral and the RX portion of the device is outside 30 – 960 MHz range regulated by Part 15. 3) Page 3 of the users manual cites motion RF transmissions are every 7.5 sec. This is less that the minimum measured and allowed in 15.231 (10 sec. min. and/or 30* duration of transmission). 4) The information presented in Table 7.1.2 appears to be for motionless RF transmissions (manual says these are approx. 2 msec in duration). How about the motion transmissions. The manual cites these are 400 msec. Please provide appropriate test data for this condition. 5) 400 msec transmit duration would also affect duty cycle correction factor. Please adjust. Note that compliance may be affected depending on the worse case results of the duty factor. 6) Tamper conditions shows transmissions beyond the 1 second (1.412 second duration for the series of transmissions. 7) Please explain why the fundamental in plot 7.2.3 appears higher than reported anywhere else – including the data tables.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 October 17, 2007 RE: Visonic Inc. FCC ID: GSA5-BTC00433 After a review of the submitted information, I have a few comments on the above referenced Application. Depending on your responses, kindly understand there may be additional comments. 1) Much of the TX information in the manual was adjusted from 400 msec duration to 400 msec intervals with 4 transmissions. Also, previous comment regarding tamper conditions shows transmissions beyond the 1 second (1.412 second duration for the series of transmissions. Previously it appears that only tamper TX would last 1.412 sec, but now with revised manual all transmissions appears to follow this. Note that the FCC requirement is maximum of 1 second period to meet 15.231(e) transmissions. Additionally, the users manual was adjusted to show in motion and motionless also transmit at this duty cycle. To meet FCC requirements, it would appear that a maximum of 3 transmissions may occur. Currently the device does not appear to meet 15.231(e) requirements Timothy R. Johnson Examining Engineer mailto: [email protected] The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application.

FCC ID: GSA5-BTC00433 In reply to e-mail dated September 18, 2007 Dear Mr. Johnson, Below is the answers to your questions. 1. Please refer to “FCC_authority_letter” uploaded via “Additional information” folder and to “Authorization_letter FOR VT” uploaded via “Additional information” folder. 2. Please refer to “Label_location_16642_rev1” uploaded via “Label location” folder. 3. According to our customer’s statement, the rate that appeared in the users manual was in error. Please refer to “Infant Protection Bracelet User Guide_V8_16642” uploaded via “Users Manual” folder with correct, 15 second, transmission rate for RF. 4. According to our customer’s statement, again the users manual was inaccurate. The RF transmission is the same in motion and motionless states. The transmission rate is always approximately 2 ms in length. Please refer to “Infant Protection Bracelet User Guide_V8_16642” uploaded via “Users Manual” folder. 5. According to our customer’s statement, again the users manual was incorrect. 400 ms is the interval of the burst during an event and not the message length. Please refer to “Infant Protection Bracelet User Guide_V8_16642” uploaded via “Users Manual” folder. 6. When a tag is tampered, it sends a single transmission burst consisting of four pulses with 400 ms intervals, the total length of transmission is 1.412 s. 7. Plot 7.2.3 shows the prescan results obtained in the semi anechoic chamber. This plot is intended to demonstrate that there are no emissions other than carrier and second harmonic in 30 – 1000 MHz range. The fundamental emission exceeds the reference level and the measurement accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The reference level was adjusted to obtain sufficient margin of the internal noise and limit. The final measurements were performed at the OATS including the full maximization of emission. The actual difference obtained between sites is 69.93 dBuV/m versus 73.2 dBuV/m or 3.27 dB. Taking into account the above considerations and uncertainty of RE measurements – it really can happen. With great respect, Natasha
FCC ID: GSA5-BTC00433 In reply to e-mail dated October 17, 2007 Dear Mr. Johnson, Below are the answers to your questions. 1) There are the types of transmissions generated by BTC: supervision, alarm and tamper. All transmissions have the same length of transmission message 2ms approx. The supervision transmission consists of one transmission of 2ms approx. The interval between two supervision transmissions is approx. 15s and complies with FCC Part 15, subpart C, §15.231(e). The alarm and tamper transmissions consist of four 2ms transmissions with 400ms intervals between them, the total duration is approx. 1.4s and complies with FCC Part 15, subpart C, §15.231(a). Please refer to “Infant Protection Bracelet User Guide_V11_16642” uploaded via “Users Manual” folder, “BTC Operational Description_rev3_16642” uploaded via “Operational Description” folder with corrected transmissions description, as well as to the test report “VISRAD_FCC.16642_rev2” uploaded via “Test Report” folder with revised Section 7.1.
