Test Report No. R-4935N-2 FCC ID: PFK-500-01 IC: 3916A-500001 APPLICANT Sekonic Corporation 7-24-14, Oiaumi-Gakuen-cho Nerima-ku, Tokyo, 178-8686 Japan TEST SPECIFICATIONS: FCC Rules and Regulations Part 15, Subpart C, Para. 15.231 RSS 210, Issue 7 TEST PROCEDURE: ANSI C63.4:2003/RSS-210, Issue 7 PURPOSE: The purpose of this test program was to demonstrate compliance of the C-500R Color Meter with Radio Module to the requirements of 15.231. TEST SAMPLE DESCRIPTION: BRANDNAME: Sekonic MODEL: C-500R TYPE: Color Meter with Radio Module POWER REQUIREMENTS: 3VDC via internal battery FREQUENCY BAND OF OPERATION: 344.04MHz to 354.0MHz MODULATION: OOK (On/Off Keying) TYPE OF TRANSMISSION: Control Signal (Pulse Recognition Codes) APPLICATION: Remote Triggering of Flashpack FREQUENCIES TESTED: 344.04MHz, 354.0MHz TESTS PERFORMED: 15.231 (b)/RSS-210 Annex 1, Spurious Radiated Emissions (30MHz to 3.6GHz) 15.231 (b)/RSS-210 Annex 1, Field Strength of Fundamental 15.231 (c) Occupied Bandwidth, 0.25% of Fundamental Frequency Test Report No. R-4935N-2 FCC ID: PFK-500-01 IC: 3916A-500001 RSS-210, Annex 1, A1.1.3, 99% bandwidth, 0.25% of Center Frequency Duty Cycle Determination NOTE: Testing was performed at 2 frequencies (low and high) within the operational band as required for devices operating within a 1 - 10MHz band but not exceeding 10MHz. TEST SAMPLE OPERATION: The device is normally manually operated and transmits a control signal for remote triggering of a flashpack. Normal operation of the EUT complies with the parameters required in Part 15, Subpart C, Section 15.231 and RSS 210 for momentary operated devices. For testing purposes only the EUT was configured to continuously transmit. TEST SAMPLE / TEST PROGRAM •The transmitter is manually activated and employs a switch that automatically deactivates the transmitter within 5 seconds of being released. CThe transmitter does not perform periodic transmissions at regularly predetermined intervals. CThe device can not be employed for RC purposes involving security. •The device uses an internal antenna. CThe fundamental field strength at 344.04MHz did not exceed 7252μV/M (Average) at a test distance of 3 meters. The fundamental field strength at 354.0MHz did not exceed 7667μV/M (Average) at a test distance of 3 meters. •The peak value of fundamental emissions did not exceed a peak field strength limit corresponding to 20dB above the maximum permitted average limit. CThe field strength of harmonic and spurious emissions did not exceed 725μV/M or 500μV/M as applicable for a fundamental frequency of 344.04MHz. The field strength of harmonic and spurious emissions did not exceed 766μV/M or 500μV/M as applicable for a fundamental frequency of 354.0MHz. No harmonic or spurious emissions were observed within 10dB of the specified limit at test distances of 1 or 3 meters. •Radiated Emissions from the EUT were measured in all three axis. The attached Radiated Emissions test data is representative of the worst case orientation. Test Report No. R-4935N-2 FCC ID: PFK-500-01 IC: 3916A-500001 TEST SAMPLE / TEST PROGRAM (continued) CThe device can operate within the range of 344.04 to 354.00MHz. The device was tested at the frequencies of 344.04MHz and 354.0MHz. The 20dB bandwidth and 99% bandwidth of emissions did not exceed 0.25% of the center operating frequency and was determined as follows: Fundamental Frequency=344.04MHz 0.25% of Center Frequency=0.860MHz 0.860 divided by 2=0.430MHz Bandwidth Range=Fundamental Frequency + and - 0.430MHz 344.04MHz - 0.430MHz=343.61MHz 344.04MHz + 0.430MHz=344.47MHz Bandwidth Range=343.61MHz - 344.47MHz Fundamental Frequency=354.0MHz 0.25% of Center Frequency=0.885MHz 0.884 divided by 2=0.4425MHz Bandwidth Range=Fundamental Frequency + and - 0.442MHz 354.0MHz - 0.442MHz=353.558MHz 353.5MHz + 0.442MHz=354.442MHz Bandwidth Range=353.558MHz - 354.442MHz DETERMINATION OF FIELD STRENGTH LIMITS The field strength limits shown below were calculated as instructed in Section 15.231. Fundamental Frequency: 344.04MHz Where F is the frequency in MHz, the formula for calculating the maximum permitted fundamental field strength for the band 260-470MHz, μV/m at 3 meters is as follows: 41.6667(F) - 7083.3333 =Field Strength Limit (μV/m) 41.6667 x 344.04=14335.011 14335.011 - 7083.3333=7252 Field Strength Limit=7252μV/m = 77.21dBuV/M The maximum permitted unwanted emission level is 20dB below the maximum permitted fundamental level which equals 725μV/m = 57.21dBuV/M. Test Report No. R-4935N-2 FCC ID: PFK-500-01 IC: 3916A-500001 TEST SAMPLE / TEST PROGRAM (continued) Field Strength Limit Calculations continued: Fundamental Frequency: 354.0MHz Where F is the frequency in MHz, the formula for calculating the maximum permitted fundamental field strength for the band 260-470MHz, μV/m at 3 meters is as follows: 41.6667(F) - 7083.3333 =Field Strength Limit (μV/m) 41.6667 x 353.5=14729.178 14729.178 - 7083.3333=7666.679 Field Strength Limit=7666.679μV/m = 77.69dBuV/M The maximum permitted unwanted emission level is 20dB below the maximum permitted fundamental level which equals 766.67μV/m = 57.69dBuV/M DETERMINATION OF DUTY CYCLE The transmitter controls were adjusted to maximize the transmitted duty cycle. The analyzer was set for a frequency span of 0Hz. The sweep time was then adjusted in order to display one full pulse train. The transmitter on time was then summed and compared to the time for one full cycle in order to obtain the duty cycle. The on times were determined as follows: The transmitter pulse train consisted of 3 identical pulse bursts. The individual pulses within each burst were measured and summed in order to obtain the total “on time”. Fundamental Frequency: 344.04MHz Transmitter On Time=.531milliseconds Transmitter Cycle Time= 8 milliseconds Transmitter Duty Cycle=6.637 % On Time divided by Cycle Time=Duty Cycle Factor .531divided by 8=0.06637 10 0.06637 converted to dB (LOG .06637)20=-23.56dB Duty Cycle Factor=-23.56dB Test Repor…
