These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures: - Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. - Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. - Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. FCC Caution: To assure continued compliance,any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. IMPORTANT NOTE: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Contents CHAPTER 1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW 1 1-1.

RF EXPOSURE EVALUATION According to FCC 1.1310 : The criteria listed in the following table shall be used to evaluate the environment impact of human exposure to radio frequency (RF) radiation as specified in 1.1307(b) LIMITS FOR MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE) Frequency Range (MHz) Electric Field Strength (V/m) Magnetic Field Strength (A/m) Power Density (mW/cm 2 ) Average Time (A) Limits for Occupational / Control Exposures 300-1,500 -- -- F/300 6 1,500-100,000 -- -- 5 6 (B) Limits for General Population / Uncontrol Exposures 300-1,500 -- -- F/1500 6 1,500-100,000 -- -- 1 30 Friis Formula Friis transmission formula : P d = (P out *G)/(4*p i *r 2 ) Where P d = power density in mW/cm 2 P out = output power to antenna in mW G = gain of antenna in linear scale P i = 3.1416 r = distance between observation point and center of the radiator in cm P d is the limit of MPE, 1 mW/cm 2 . If we know the maximum gain of the antenna and the total power input to the antenna, through the calculation, we will know the distance “r” where the MPE limit is reached. EUT Operating Condition A software provided by client enabled the EUT to transmit and receive data at lowest, middle and highest channel individually. !Compliance Certification Services Inc.!FCC ID : JCK-GN-WIAG02!
