5015 B.U. Bowman Drive Buford, GA 30518 USA Voice: 770-831-8048 Fax: 770-831-8598 Certification Exhibit FCC ID: OUECSXCVR1 IC: 6866A-CSXCVR1 FCC Rule Part: 15.249 IC Radio Standards Specification: RSS-210 ACS Report Number: 08-0097-15C Manufacturer: Paul C. Buff, Inc. Model: CyberSync Transceiver 1 Manual Paul C. Buff, Inc. CyberSync TM Transceiver Module 1 Application Information CyberSync TM Transceiver Module 1 is a self-contained, fully operational 2.4 Ghz modular multi- channel radio transceiver designed to be used exclusively with host products containing a connector specifically designated as an interface for the Paul C. Buff, Inc. CyberSync TM Transceiver Module 1. The Transceiver 1 module is powered by its host device, and contains all necessary decoupling and shielding required to meet FCC Part 15 Modular Transmitter Approval criteria. The module is connected to its host device by an eight-pin header system. The host equipment provides a 3 Vdc regulated and filtered power source, channel selection data, T/R switching, and data output to the device when used as a transmitter, as well as data decoding when the module is used in its Receiver mode of operation. The module is either contained directly within the host product, as installed at the factory following strict guidelines provided by Paul C. Buff, Inc., or is supplied in a separate enclosure for plug-in connection to a host product incorporating a mating cavity with female connector configured according to strict guidelines provided by Paul C. Buff, Inc., and labeled “For connection to Paul C. Buff, Inc. CyberSync TM Transceiver Module only.” The host product is required to a visible bear a label or imprint stating: Contains FCC ID: OUECSXCVR1 Contains IC: 6866A-CSXCVR1 APPLICATION WARNINGS The Transceiver 1 module incorporates a self-contained transmission line type antenna that is part of the module circuit board. When connecting the module to its host equipment, do not scratch, bend, or otherwise alter the antenna portion of the circuit board, which appears as a long, narrow section of the substrate material extending from the rectangular section of the board. Do not remove the film solder mask from the antenna section, and do not attach any other wire, external antenna, or antenna connector to the antenna section. Incorrect installation of the module is likely to result in unauthorized modes of operation, and/or damage to the module's components. When completing the installation of this module, make certain that the appropriate FCC Approval label is affixed to the host device exterior surface as instructed by the host device assembly instructions. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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 or more 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. STATEMENT: The term 'IC:' before the radio certification number only signifies that Industry Canada technical specifications were met. This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference Causing Equipment Regulations. 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. Cet appareillage numérique de la classe B répond à toutes les exigences de l'interférence canadienne causant des règlements d'équipement. L'opération est sujette aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) ce dispositif peut ne pas causer l'interférence nocive, et (2) ce dispositif doit accepter n'importe quelle interférence reçue, y compris l'interférence qui peut causer l'opération peu désirée.

Paul C. Buff, Inc. – 2725 Bransford Ave. – Nashville, TN 37205 Phone 1-800-443-5542 April 11, 2008, Federal Communications Commission Authorization and Evaluation Division 1435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 Dear Sirs, We are requesting Modular Transmitter Approval for our transceiver device FCC ID: OUECSXCVR1. 1. This device has its own RF shielding and does not depend upon shielding provided by the device it is installed in to meet Part 15 emission limits. 2. The device employs buffered modulation/data inputs and complies with Part 15 limits under any use. 3. The device contains on-chip voltage regulation and complies with part 15 requirements regardless of voltage supplied to it. 4. The device contains non-modifiable on-board antenna that complies with Section 15.203 and 15.204(c). 5. The device complies with the following in every regard: “The modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and, if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: XYZMODEL1” or “Contains FCC ID: XYZMODEL1.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization.” 6. The device is labeled with required FCC ID Number and host products it is used in contain a label that states “Contains FCC ID: OUECSXCVR1” 7. The device complies with the following in every regard: “The modular transmitter must comply with any specific rule or operating requirements applicable to the transmitter and the manufacturer must provide adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements. A copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. For example, there are very strict operational and timing requirements that must be met before a transmitter is authorized for operation under Section 15.231. For instance, data transmission is prohibited, except for operation under Section 15.231(e), in which case there are separate field strength level and timing requirements. Compliance with these requirements must be assured.” 8. The device complies with the following in every regard: “The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure requirements. For example, FCC Rules in Sections 2.1091, 2.1093 and specific Sections of Part 15, including 15.319(i), 15.407(f), 15.253(f) and 15.255(g), require that Unlicensed PCS, UNII and millimeter wave devices perform routine environmental evaluation for RF Exposure to demonstrate compliance. In addition, spread spectrum transmitters operating under Section 15.247 are required to address RF Exposure compliance in accordance with Section 15.247(b)(4). Modular transmitters approved under other Sections of Part 15, when necessary, may also need to address certain RF Exposure concerns, typically by providing specific installation and operating instructions for users, installers and other interested parties to ensure compliance.” Sincerely, Paul C. Buff, President Paul C. Buff, Inc. (Signed) Paul C. Buff April 11, 2008
