Immunity to annex A - industrial locations. Emissions to class A - (non-domestic) limits. and that it complies with the requirements of directive (as amended): 89/336/EECElectromagnetic compatibility The above information is summarised from the full EC declaration of conformity. A copy is available from Renishaw on request. Radio approvals Brazil: Canada: IC: 3928A-RMI Europe: CE 0536! Japan: 004NYCA0042 USA:FCC ID KQGRMI Australia China Israel New Zealand Russia Switzerland 3 FCC DECLARATION (USA) FCC Section 15.19 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. 2. This device may accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. FCC Section 15.105 This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses , and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case you will be required to correct the interference at your own expense. FCC Section 15.21 The user is cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Renishaw plc, or authorised representative could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. SAFETY Information for the user Beware of unexpected movement. The user should remain outside of the full working envelope of probe head/extension/probe combinations. Handle and dispose of batteries in according to the manufacturers recommendations. Use only the recommended batteries. Do not allow the battery terminals to contact other metallic objects. In all applications involving the use of machine tools or CMMs, eye protection is recommended. Refer to the machine supplier’s operating instructions. Information for the machine supplier It is the machine supplier’s responsibility to ensure that the user is made aware of any hazards involved in operation, including those mentioned in Renishaw product documentation, and to ensure that adequate guards and safety interlocks are provided. Under certain circumstances the probe signal may falsely indicate a probe seated condition. Do not rely on probe signals to stop the machine’s movement. 4 Installation and user’s guide Installation and user’s guide Warranty Equipment requiring attention under warranty must be returned to your supplier. No claims will be considered where Renishaw equipment has been misused, or repairs or adjustments have been attempted by unauthorised persons. Care of the RMI Keep system components clean and treat the RMI with care. Do not apply metallic labels to the front of the RMI. Changes to equipment Renishaw reserve the right to change specifications withou…

Reason for Issue/Nature of change: This document has been updated to describe the RMP60 and RMI using the Nordic nRF2401A radio modem. It will be supplied to the FCC as an exhibit for the type approval applications for KQGRMIV2.

It consists of two components, the RMP (Radio Module Probe) and RMI (Radio Machine Interface) which are the two radio stations. RMP60M contains the same circuits as RMP60, the only difference between RMP60M and RMP60 is the mechanical housing. Radio details The system uses FHSS (frequency hopping spread spectrum) transmission in the frequency band from 2400 to 2483.5 MHz. There are 79 * 1 MHz wide channels. The maximum ERP (emitted radio power) is 1mw (0dBm) and the transmission range is up to 15m. The radio link is bi-directional with half duplex transmission. Both RMP and RMI use a nRF2401 Nordic radio modem. The nRF2401 is a transceiver circuit. When transmitting the modem uses a synthesiser to generate the desired carrier from the 13MHz clock. The modem then modulates this carrier using the input serial data and then amplifies it for transmission to the antenna via a filter. When receiving the signal from the antenna is fed via the filter to a low noise amplifier and then to the built in heterodyne receiver. The receiver circuits generate intermediate frequencies of 350MHz and 3 MHz which are used to down mix the signal. Following the mixers the signal is demodulated and the resulting serial received data is output. RMI (see Fig 1) The RMI dimensions are 108*90*40mm (L*W*H), with a cable exit gland which can be fitted to its side or rear faces. The RMI is intended to be connected to the machine tool controller using a multicore screened cable supplied with the RMI. The RMI is powered from the machine tool by 10-30V DC. The RMI contains the electronic circuitry needed to process the radio transmissions to and from the RMP, and the inputs and outputs to and from the machine tools CNC controller. The RMI is controlled by a microprocessor. The microprocessor encodes and decodes the radio messages that are sent or received via the FPGA to or from the radio modem. The FPGA contains a correlator which is used to recognise messages addressed to the RMI. The FPGA contains the timing logic required for the radio modem. The microprocessor and the FPGA use the 40MHz clock. The RMI outputs to the machine tool include 3 * solid state relay outputs (probe status/ skip, low battery and error) and 2 driven outputs (for probe status/ skip). The RMI has an input for an M code start for the system. 3 Fig 1 RMI block diagram Radio Modem Baseband Processor/ PIC Start input Antenna Electrical outputs, SSRs & driven.
