QPXACR30002Vehicle Tracking Device

Boomerang Tracking Installation Manual Boomerang Tracking Corporation Proprietary - Restricted Solely for those Individuals with a need-to-know pursuant to Company instructions An essential part of the success of the Boomerang Tracking Device is the installation. The unit must be fully concealed within the vehicle and integrated with the look and feel of the factory wiring. Tape all wires with factory matching tape and incorporate them into the factory wiring. • Park the vehicle in a secured area away from the customer or any non-certified installation members • • • • Find a location in the front portion of the drivers compartment that will fully conceal the device o Note – do not mount the unit under the drivers side dash or behind the radio o Note – the position of the unit is not critical • Locate a source of constant 12V+ nearby o Note – be aware that some 12V+ wires may test constant, but will switch off when the vehicle’s BCM shuts down. Test thoroughly. If in doubt, consult the vehicle’s factory service manual schematics. Crimp the fuse holder to the end of the red wire and solder the other end of the fuse holder to the source of constant 12V+ • Find a source of ground o Note – a factory bolt is preferred. Remove the bolt, clean the surface, and attach the ground wire via a crimped ring terminal under the factory bolt • • • • Position the antennas at least 1” from any metal surface ensuring that they remain concealed • • • • Insert the 1-amp fuse into the fuse holder • • • • Affix the unit to the vehicle securely using screws, wire ties or butyl-based sealant o Note – be very careful not to cause any rattles or squeaks • Put the transponder on the customer’s key ring • • • • Reassemble the vehicle Fig. 1 – Installation Schematics Compliance Statement ( Part 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, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Warning ( Part 15.21 ) Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment . RF Exposure ( OET Bulletin 65 ) To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices, this transmitter should only be used or installed at locations where there is at least 20cm separation distance between the antenna and all persons .

Response to TCB Findings Q: Please provide us a confirmation from your client stating compliance to 15.247(a)(1) on the following issues *. Each frequency is being used equally on the average by each transmitter. *. System receivers have input bandwidths that match the hopping channel bandwidth of their corresponding transmitter. *. System receivers have the ability to shift frequencies in synchronization with the transmitted signals. Please refer to filed test report number 302383 - TX, pages 24 and 25 and the filings operational description to demonstrate compliance with each frequency being used equally on the average. Also refer to the operational description supplied with this filing. Q: Please provide us a confirmation from your client stating the compliance to 15.247(g) and 15.257(h). For 15.247(g): Our Frequency hopping spread spectrum tracking beacon system uses a master slave concept. The transmitter is the master in the system and it is the job of the receiver to synchronize with the transmitter. The receiver will scan individual channels until it sees the proper data, then it will hop frequency at the same rate as the transmitter. Communication goes only one way and there is no handshake back and forth. For our product to work the tracking beacon sends it’s own ID and it is the job of the receiver to lock and to feed information to a sub-system that will provide a heading. The tracking beacon sends information on each channel for no longer than 0.4 seconds per channel and uses 50 different channels following a pseudo-random table. A second transmission on the same channel will not occur before 20 seconds. For 15.247(h): As defined above transmitter is a master and does not take advantage of occupied band by skipping over, the transmitter follows it’s own pseudo-random table and transmit on every channels it that table, it stays 0.4 seconds and hop to the next frequency. Our application does not require data integrity on every channel. Our application requires data heading for the Doppler radar to work. Q: Please supply the details of the gain of the 915MHz integral antenna. The effective gain of our antenna is 0 db. Our product is a stolen vehicle tracking device and the antenna is made with a coaxial cable ( RG-174/U ) that the end as been exposed making that an ¼ wave omni-directional antenna.

Product and General Information Manufacturer: Boomerang Tracking Corporation Model No.: Boomerang Tracking Beacon Serial No.: Beta Unit #8 Description: 900-928 MHz Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum Transmitter 7. Product Description The Boomerang Tracking Beacon (915.035 – 916.750 MHz) is part of an automotive vehicle recovery system, which contains a 303 MHz receiver, used to verify if the owner is in the car; a GSM transceiver, which allows communication via the cellular phone network; and a 915 MHz F.H.S.S. transmitter, which serves as a tracking beacon. This report deals with the Tracking Beacon section of the system. 8. Test Requirements The above mentioned tests were performed in order to determine the compliance of the Boomerang III with limits contained in various provisions of Title 47 CFR, FCC Part 15, including: 15.207 15.247b 15.247f 15.205 15.247c 15.209 15.247a 15.247d All radiated emissions tests were performed to measure the emissions in the frequency bands described by the above sections, and to determine whether said emissions are below the limits established by the above sections. These tests were performed in accordance with the procedure described in the American National Standard for methods of measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 9 kHz to 40 GHz (ANSI C63.4-2001). Another document used as reference for the EMI receiver specification was the International Special Committee on Radio Interference (CISPR) Number 16-1 (2002). Measurement technique guidelines found in Appendix C to FCC 97-114 were also consulted. During all tests a representative random data stream was used for modulation of the test transmitter output.
