The DRU II has been completely redesigned for flexibility, simple operation, small size and extremely low current consumption. The DRU II is intended for uses in traffic, industrial, and sports products. Examples of these applications are the Kustom Signals S.M.A.R.T. series trailers, Pole Mounted Speed Displays and StealthStat statistics gathering systems. The DRU II is designed to be an extremely flexible unit. Kustom Signals provides PC software to allow the user to setup the DRU II to operate in many different configurations. The radar itself is incredibly simple to operate--just connect it to a compatible display or PC, and power it up. The DRU II will output RS232 speed data in the selected output protocol as long as the unit is powered. With a size of only 3.5”x 3”x 2.25” the DRU II is a complete one-piece unit, that can easily be mount to the user’s equipment. The DRU II sets a new standard for low current consumption. This dramatically improves run times in battery-operated applications. Although the DRU has no frills outside, it has Kustom Signals' uncompromising quality inside to give you years of trouble-free, accurate, reliable, speed measurements. SYSTEM OPERATION 2 RADAR SIDE VIEW A B F C D A. RUBBER WASHER: Rests on mounting screw between mounting bracket and radar unit. B. MOUNTING BRACKET SCREW: Connects bracket to radar unit. C. INDICATOR LED: Strongest target direction indicator. D. POWER CONNECTOR: Provides screw down connection to the provided power cable E. DATA CONNECTOR: Connections for bi-directional RS232 serial data cable. SYSTEM OPERATION 3 CONFIGURATION OPTIONS The DRU II was designed to give the user a configurable radar unit that can be setup for their needs. A simple PC program let the user select: 1. Target Direction: The DRU II can output speeds for targets traveling in the direction of: a. Approaching Only b. Receding Only c. Approaching and Receding d. Non Directional (all targets output) 2. Sensitivity (Range): The DRU II can be set for sensitivity from 5 (most sensitive) to 1 (least sensitive). SYSTEM OPERATION 4 3. Target Tracking: The DRU II can be set to Vehicle or Sports tracking. With vehicle tracking, targets are acquired with a longer tracking history and have a 2 second target hang time. Sports’ tracking has a quick acquisition time and only a ½ second target hang time. 4. Units of Measure: The DRU II can output speeds in: a. Miles per hour (MPH) b. Kilometer per hour (km/hr) c. Feet per second (Ft/Sec) d. Meters per second (Mt/Sec) Note: All speeds are calculated in tenth units of measure. The user selects if they want the output in tenth or units. 5. Target Speed Range: The DRU II can quickly be set to the Standard speed range for speeds from 5 – 120 MPH or the Full speed range for speeds from 1 – 150 MPH. For more flexibility the user can input a Low Cutoff speed (speeds below this are not reported) and a High Cutoff speed (speeds above this are not reported.) 6. Output Protocol: The DRU II can output one of several different protocols. Including outputs in HEX, ASCII, multiple targets, tenth units, and many more. 7. Output Baud Rate: The DRU II can be set to output RS232 data at rates of (19200, 9600, 4800, 2400, or 1200) baud. SYSTEM OPERATION 5 8. Output Update Rate: The DRU II can be set to output packets of speed data at rates of (8 times per second, 4 times a second, 2 times a second, once a second, upon speed change, or when the user’s equipment polls for data) Note: If Output Update Rate is set to upon speed change, the DRU II outputs speeds immediately when the speeds changes by at least one unit or once every two seconds if the speed is not changing. If the DRU II is set to the Polled output, data is output when the DRU II receives characters [“*P”] or [“*P”0x0D]. Once all the selections have been made, click the Send Setting button to send the configuration data to the DRU II. SYSTEM OPERATION 6 INSTALLA…

June 9, 2006 Timco Engineering Inc. 849 NW State Road 45 Newberry, FL 32669 Office of Engineering and Technology Federal Communications Commission Columbia, MD 21046 Applicant: KUSTOM SIGNALS, INC. 9325 Pflumm Lenexa, KS 6624-3347 Re: Confidentiality for submittal information regarding FCC ID number IVQDRU-II PRODUCT: Field Disturbance Sensor operating under part 15.245. Dear Sirs: Short-term Pursuant to DA 04-1705 of the Commission’s pubic notice, we request short-term confidential treatment for the following information until 45 days after the Grant Date of Equipment Authorization in order to ensure sensitive business information remains confidential until the actual marketing of the device: External Photos Internal Photos Test Setup Photos User Manual Permanent KUSTOM SIGNALS, INC. requests that the material in the Parts List, Schematics, block diagram, and Operational Description be withheld from public disclosure in accordance with Section 0.459 of the Commissions Rules, 47 C.F.R. 0.459, following grant of the application. In support of this request, KUSTOM SIGNALS, INC. submits the following: 1. Identification of the specific information for which confidential treatment is sought: The materials set fourth in the Operational Description, Parts List, block diagram, and Schematics, 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: IVQDRU-II ROGERS LABS, INC. 4405 West 259 th Terrace Louisburg, KS 66053 3. Explanation of the degree to which the information is commercial or financial, or contains a trade secret or is privileged: This material includes a detailed theory of operation, circuit diagrams, (schematic diagrams) and detail Parts List. As such, this material is treated as highly confidential business information. 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 KUSTOM SIGNALS, INC.’s 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 KUSTOM SIGNALS, INC. 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 KUSTOM SIGNALS, INC. 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
