It is worn on a lanyard or in a pocket of individuals to be tracked within facilities utilizing the Guard1 Tracking system. To use Guard1 Tracking ID Badge Tags you will need:  Lanyards (if desired)  Guard1 Tracking ID Badge Tags  Guard1 Tracking System Instructions:  Individuals to be tracked wear the tag on a lanyard or in a pocket.  The Guard1 Tracking Wristband Tag may be reused during the useful life of the battery. © 2019 by TimeKeeping Systems, Inc. www.guard1.com FCC Statements: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital devices pursuant to Part 15, Subpart B of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential 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. 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 and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  Increase the separation between the equipment and the 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. This device complies with Part 15 of 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. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by TimeKeeping Systems, Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. This device is exempt from SAR Evaluation, per §4.3.1 of KDB 447498. Industry Canada Statements: English French This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. This device is exempt from SAR Evaluation, per RSS-102 §2.5.1. Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. Cet appareil est exempt de l'évaluation SAR, selon RSS-102 §2.5.1.

RF Exposure Info

Authorized Agent: Radiometrics Midwest Corporation (815) 293-0772 RF Exposure FCC ID: MTD-0009 1.0 INTRODUCTION These calculations are based on the highest EIRP possible from the EUT considering maximum power and antenna gain. The highest output power of the EUT is 2.56 mW and the gain of the antenna is 0 dBi. The duty cycle of the EUT is 0.2 %, therefore, the average power is 0.005 mW. The calculations are based on 1 % duty cycle to show a worst case. 1.0 SAR EXCLUSION RESULT In accordance with FCC KDB Publication 447498 D01 V05R06 Clause 4.3.1 a), The 1‐g SAR test exclusion thresholds for 100 MHz to 6 GHz at test separation distances ≤ 50 mm are determined by: [(max. power, mW)/(min. separation distance, mm)] x [√f (GHz)] ≤ 3.0 for 1‐g extremity SAR, where ‧ f (GHz) is the RF channel transmit frequency in GHz MHz Max Power dBm Tune up tolerance dB Max Ant Gain dBi Duty Cycle % EIRP mW Min Sep mm SAR Exc Threshold 4.3.1 a) Limit 1-gResult 24023.91.001.00.03150.00953.0Exempt 24264.11.001.00.03250.01003.0Exempt 24803.71.001.00.03050.00943.0Exempt Judgement: The product is exempt from SAR testing 2.0 MPE CALCULATION FROM OET 65 & FCC 1.1310 MHz Max Power dBm Tune up Tolerance dB Max Ant Gain dBi Duty Cycle % EIRP mWatts (S) GP Limit mW/cm^2 Declared Minimum seperation Distance (cm) EUT power Density mW/cm2 Result 24023.91.001.00.03061.0000.5000.0097Pass 24264.11.001.00.03221.0000.5000.0103Pass 24803.71.001.00.02971.0000.5000.0095Pass Notes on the above table: In accordance with OET 65, 97-01, Power Density is calculated by S = P*G/(4*π*R^2) Where S = power density (mW/cm2) P = power input to the antenna (mW) G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest relative to an isotropic radiator R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (cm) S is the power density General Population Limit from FCC 1.1310 Table 1 EIRP Power is the Peak Effective Radiated Power. EIRP = (Average Conducted Power + Antenna gain) * Duty Cycle. Since the calculated power density is less than the limit, this product fully meets the OET 65 requirements for the general population.
