The system is used for utility consumption readings collection system as well as for other applications such as in agricultural systems. This device is installed on-site by a professional field technician, thus it includes technical terms. The equipment is not to be installed by a non-professional individual that has not been trained and authorized. 1.2 System General Description The Receiver/Repeater 2A system is a computerized fully automatic radio device. It requires no human intervention after initial installation. The device acts as a store- and-forward radio relay. The Receiver/Repeater 2A operates as a receiver connected to a bases station or as a repeater that captures transmissions from a Miltel transmitter and, after validating the message, transmits the message again. When operating as a Repeater the device relays information from transmitters to a receiver that is connected to the base station which is typically implemented as a regional concentrator or as a standard PC. The concentrator/PC transfers the data to the central computer for data collection and for further analysis and reporting. When operating as a receiver, the device receives messages transmitted by Miltel transmitters or messages relayed by a repeater. The receiver can also send commands to any of the repeaters. 4 The Transceiver device is marketed as two models (as a receiver or as a repeater) and under three different commercial trade names (Speed Repeater 2A / Receiver 2A, Galaxy Repeater 2A / Receiver 2A and IrriWise Repeater 2A / Receiver 2A). The Transceiver device (both receiver and repeater) can be hooked up to a PC or to a laptop computer for programming purposes during system setup. 1.3 Theory of Operation The Receiver/Repeater 2A is the intermediate link in the wireless data collection system. It is an independent unit that operates as a repeater (radio relay) or as a collection device (receiver) linked to the base station. Figure 2-1 (see below) shows a typical installation of a Receiver/Repeater 2A unit. The device is powered by a 12 volt power supply or by a solar powered battery. The Receiver/Repeater 2A operates its radio receiver on a continuous basis until it receives a message from a nearby transmitter. After capturing the transmitted data message, it sends out an identical message which is forwarded to the Collector.

HERM O N LA BO RA TO RIES January 20, 2005 American TCB 6731 Whittier Ave Suite C110 McLean, VA 22101 Attn: Mr. T. Johnson, Examining Engineer RE: your e-mail dated January 18, 2005; Miltel Communications Ltd. FCC ID:MLLGL2RPT450, ATCB002061 Dear Mr. Johnson, Please find below the answers to your questions. 1) For our information; 2) The file “Antenna_description_16184” was uploaded on January 20, 2005 via Additional Information folder; 3) The revised User_Manual_16184_rev1 with licensing requirements was uploaded on January 20, 2005 via Users Manual folder; 4) The devices use FSK modulation with the maximum frequency deviation +/- 3 kHz and the highest modulating frequency +/- 2.4 kHz. Upon this the necessary emission bandwidth is 2*(3.0+2.4)=10.8 kHz, and the emission designator is 10K8F1D. Thank you. Sincerely, Marina Cherniavsky, certification engineer Hermon Laboratories
