IXMCF114100Wireless LAN CF Card

USI 802.11b WLAN CF Card Quick User Guide Special Issue Regarding to the Configurations of the WLAN CF Card This WLAN CF Card, is designed and classified as a HAND-HELD device. It is designed to be adapted with the hand-held device such as PDA, PocketPC, Palm etc. The configuration other than these usage (e.g. with the body-worn manner) is not intended by the manufacturer and is strictly prohibited. In addition, for your own safety, it is recommended that keeping at least 20cm separation between the device and your body to minimize the possible RF exposure. This device must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter in order to avoid mutual interference. Index 1.

The Block Diagram updated with adding all the frequency of the oscillators shown, is uploaded. 2. The manufacturer wants the product being locked in its working configuration at the “HANDHELD” mode. Please refer to the declaration of locking the configuration by the manufacturer attached. 3. Thanks for your kindly reminding about the report. The negative sign is inserted and please find the modified one uploaded. 4. The Compliance Information is inserted to the manual. Please find the modified one uploaded.

FCC ID: IXMCF114100 Dear Timothy: After the review of your comments, we have made some response upon your advice; they are summarized as follows: 1. The testing utilities under the WINCE or Palm OS (hand-held status) have not been developed till now. That’s why we can only tested with the Notebook via the CompactFlash-PCMCIA adapter, in the same way as the other cases granted before. 2. The driver bundled with the product is only for the use of the WINCE OS, also the manual will not have any issue instructing the user to use the card other than hand-held device. That’s why we claim that the device not intended for the use of the statue other than hand-held. Should you have any questions or more information is needed, please don’t hesitate to ask us. Thank you. Sincerely yours, Eric Wong Project Engineer Training Research Co Ltd.

American Telecommunications Certification Body Inc. 6731 Whittier Ave, McLean, VA 22101 September 6, 2002 RE: Universal Scientific Industrial Co., Ltd. FCC ID: IXMCF114100 After a review of the submitted information, I have a few comments on the above referenced Application. These comments are all made upon the assumption that the EUT's full conducted output power is 21 mW and the antenna gain is 2.5 dBi. 1) The block diagram should show the frequency of all oscillators in the transmitter portion of the device (CFR 2.1033(a)(5)). Please provide a corrected copy. 2) CF cards must be treated similar to PCMCIA Cards unless specific configurations can be “locked in” (controlled use via specific hardware or software issues). a) From the users manual, it appears that the only supported host configuration is Windows CE. Please explain if this is the only operating system to be supported. b) Please explain how hardware and/or software will be used to prevent use in laptops or other devices. c) If the devices intended use is for PDA’s or hand held equipment only, please explain why the EMC report shows the device tested in laptop. Please describe how laptop data applies to hand held device, and/or re-test in hand held if appropriate. d) The phrase “This device and its antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter” must be added to the MPE statements in the users manual. If the configuration can not adequately be “locked in”, then the following will apply. Please note that in the past 2 weeks, the FCC has recently changed how to treat these types of devices for MPE/SAR related issues. 2.5 cm is no longer considered acceptable spacing for laptop configurations. The FCC has instructed us that we must consider that these device might be used in a touch position to the body. Assuming this device is for general purpose use please explain: a) The device should be classified for portable and/or mobile use. b) State that the antenna may be closer than 20 cm. c) Since the output power (either conducted or EIRP, Conducted = 21 mW, EIRP = 36.6) exceeds 24.6 mW ( a number specified by the FCC), this device will require SAR testing. Please note that testing must be performed in a touch position to the SAR phantom. Alternatively, the power may be lowered such that the EIRP is less than 24.6 mW. e) If SAR testing is performed, the Users Manual should contain information regarding the device and that it has met with SAR requirements. Additionally the current MPE statements would need to be modified. 3) FYI, one of the margins in Table 11 is lacking a negative sign. z Page 2September 6, 2002 4) If this device may be considered as a PC Peripheral, then an compliance information sheet should be included in the manual on the same page as the FCC statements (page 20 of 23 of the users manual). This information should contain the following information regarding DoC compliance: COMPLIANCE INFORMATION (47CFR 2.1077) If a product is tested and authorized under a Declaration of Conformity, a compliance information statement shall be supplied with the product at the time of marketing or importation, containing the following information: (1) Identification of the product, i.e. name and model number. (2) The identification, by name, address and telephone number, of the responsible party. The responsible party is defined as either the manufacturer, or if the equipment is imported, the importer. The responsible party for a Declaration of Conformity must be located within the United States. Timothy R.

These comments are all made upon the assumption that the EUT's full conducted output power is 21 mW and the antenna gain is 2.5 dBi. 1) Your response stated hand held use only.

Please explain how hardware and/or software will be used to prevent use in laptops or other devices (i.e. Drivers will only be given and supported for the Windows CE operating system. Note: Instructing the users to how to use a device away from the body is not enough to classify the device as mobile. The device should have software or hardware limitations or be designed for such use to ensure that this device meets RF exposure requirements. FYI, Reference to "locked in" configurations are considered controlled configurations. An example of this is this device is sold only when integrated into a particular product and is not sold by itself for general users. Timothy R.

Foreword In adopt with the Human Exposure IEEE C95.1, and according to the FCC 1.1310. The Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) is obligated to measure in order to prove the safety of radiation harmfulness to the human body. The Gain of the antenna used is measured in an Anechoic chamber. The maximum total power to the antenna is to be recorded. By adopting the Friis Transmission Formula and the power gain of the antenna, we can find the distance right away from the product, where the limit of the MPE is. 2.
