The door sensor monitors the amount of pressure between the door and the device. If the door is open and the device has not been electronically unsealed, the device sends a message to the monitoring software indicating that the device has been tampered. It also writes the time and date of the tamper to an event log. The device also includes a light sensor that triggers an alarm if light is detected inside the container. Environmental Sensors The environmental sensors on the ST-696-001 tags monitor the temperature and humidity within the container. You can set the maximum and minimum values, and if the temperature or humidity rises above or falls below this range, the device writes the time and date of the breach to the event log. For example, if you are shipping a product that needs to be kept at temperatures between x and y degrees, you can set the ST- 696-001 tag to record the date and time whenever the temperature breaches the maximum or minimum value.

Dear Mr. Knapp: Savi Technology, Inc. (“Savi”), 1 is developing an RFID system for operation under Sections 15.231(a) and 15.240 of the FCC Rules, and the company respectfully requests that OET confirm Savi’s understanding of the applicability of the technical requirements in these rule sections to the RF devices that comprise the new system. The new approach is made possible by: (i) the recent change to Section 15.231(a) to allow the transmission of data along with a control signal, and (ii) the flexibility afforded to RFID devices by new rule Section 15.240. The Savi RFID system consists of a Low Frequency (“LF”) Transmitter, a UHF Reader and a Tag. LF Transmitters are fixed devices (e.g., they are mounted on a signpost or entranceway to a building). UHF Readers may be fixed or portable. Savi refers to its fixed UHF Reader as the Savi Reader (“SR”) and the portable UHF Reader as the Savi Mobile Reader (“SMR”). Each device’s field strength of emissions and signal bandwidth will comply with the requirements in the applicable rule section. This includes compliance with Section 15.35 of the FCC Rules. The system has a number of operational modes as described below. In accordance with Section 15.231(a), the signals from the UHF Reader and the Tag combine control signals with data. The UHF Reader sends commands along with data to the Tag pursuant to the operational modes described below. Similarly, the Tag signal includes commands that instruct the RFID system to take certain actions 1 Savi Technology is a worldwide leader in RFID solutions that enhance homeland security and deliver value through asset management applications. The company is the primary technology provider for the world’s largest RFID consignment monitoring network for the U.S. Department of Defense, which employs RFID, barcode, cellular and satellite communications systems to track more than 35,000 conveyances daily across a global network of 1,400 locations in more than 45 countries. Savi’s solutions have been proven to enhance operational efficiency, deliver substantial cost savings, reduce capital investment in supply chain assets, and optimize inventory levels. Mr. Julius Knapp November 30, 2005 Page 2 in response to the Tag and its associated asset. The Tag’s signal includes the Tag ID, LF Transmitter (or UHF Reader) ID, as well as asset routing and status information. The RFID System uses the information in the UHF Reader and Tag signaling to regulate, direct, and influence actions of the system. In particular, the ability of the Tag to direct certain actions is critical to the overall operation of the system. 2 Savi’s RFID system will be used to control and monitor the movement of tagged assets at border crossings, on planes, trains, boats, and trucks, and in warehouses and retail stores. The Tag signal provides direction to the RFID system that is used to take specific actions that control the physical movement of the asset. For example, the Tag signal sent in response to an LF signpost transmission may control the opening and closing of doors and gates, or control the automatic routing of a tagged asset to its intended destination, such as those used with airport baggage handling systems. The operational modes for the new RFID system are as follows: 1) LF Transmitter - Signpost Wakeup Command In the Signpost mode, the short-range LF Transmitter wakes up a Tag using a 123 kHz modulated signal that complies with Section 15.209 of the FCC Rules. A Tag that receives the Wakeup command responds by transmitting a 433.92 MHz control signal to a UHF Reader. The Tag may retransmit the same message if the Tag does not receive an acknowledgement from the UHF Reader, but in no event will the Tag’s total transmission time exceed 5 seconds. Thus, the Tag transmission sequence complies with Section 15.231(a). The UHF Reader acknowledges receipt of the Tag message by transmitting a control signal to place the Tag into the Sleep mode. A timing diagram depicting the transmissions from the LF Transmitter, the Tag, and UHF Reader is shown below. 2 Savi’s RFID system uses the control information in the Tag signal to take action with regard to specific assets. For example, the Tag’s request to be interrogated by UHF Readers at inspection locations leads to segregation (and possible human intervention) if specific assets are identified or if security, battery maintenance, asset damage, or environmental threshold alarm flags are activated. The alarm flags associated with an asset may change state at any time. Thus, the Tag transmission commands the system to evaluate these parameters, to update them where appropriate, and to take appropriate action. Additionally, based on the Tag’s commands, the system will either initiate follow-on communication or put the Tag to sleep.

Min 100 ms Signpost Wake Up Command UHF Reader puts Tag to Sleep mode 2) UHF Reader Wakeup Command Fixed Reader. The Wakeup command from a fixed UHF Reader is comprised of a continuous 31.25 kHz FSK modulated signal on a 433.92 MHz carrier for 4.8 seconds, followed by a silent period and a Hello command. The entire signal lasts for 4.9 seconds, which complies with the 5 second limit set forth in Section 15.231(a). A timing diagram is depicted below. A Tag that receives the Wa…
