Home Controller HC300 Installation Guide Supported Model C4-HC300-E-B Home Controller HC300 Graphical Symbols in this Guide The following symbols and their descriptions draw your attention to important safe practices and additional information that can help you avoid death, injury, or loss of material or time. WARNING! This indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, may result in death or serious injury. DO NOT IGNORE A WARNING! IMPORTANT! This indicates information that will help you avoid damage to your equipment, loss of materials, or loss of time. PAY ATTENTION TO THESE IMPORTANT STATEMENTS! NOTE: This indicates information related to the current topic. Important Safety Instructions 1. Read these instructions. 2. Keep these instructions. 3. Heed all warnings. 4. Follow all instructions. 5. Do not use this apparatus near water. 6. Clean only with dry cloth. 7. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. 8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. 10.Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus. 11.Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. 12.Unplug this apparatus during lighting storms or when unused for long peri- ods of time. 13.Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped. 14.This apparatus has no AC mains power switch. The power cable is the AC mains disconnect device. WARNING! To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture. WARNING! This CLASS I apparatus must be connected to an AC mains socket outlet that has a protective earthing connection (i.e., third- prong ground conductor). DO NOT DEFEAT THE PROTECTIVE EARTHING CONNECTION! Introduction to Home Controller HC300 The Control4 Home Controller HC300 provides options for controlling lights, home theaters, distributed audio systems, and other devices controlled using various protocols, such as Infra Red (IR), Serial, Contact, and Relay. It provides extensive media management services for audio sources, such as CDs and DVDs stored in connected devices. It also allows you to use an external storage device with USB support for media storage. It also includes multi-zone audio capabilities, sending music to rooms throughout the home. Once the controller and other system components are installed and configured (using Control4 Composer software or another Control4 setup program), your users can control the system using one of the two user interfaces included with this controller: On-screen Navigator or System Remote Control. Control4 Supported Devices Control4 devices that can be controlled by this controller include: For a complete list of Control4 supported devices and solutions, see “Products” at http://www.control4.com .

OET Bulletin 67 Edition 97-01. 4.0 CALCULATIONS: The following worst case emissions are based on a PPt (Peak Power Total) measurement of 0.0 dBm into the antenna. And the worst case antenna gain on axis is found to be 1.0 dBi. Total power into antenna: A) Pt = 0.0 dBm = 10^(0.0 dBm/10) = 1.0 mW Total effective isotropic radiated power at the Transmitter: B) EIRP = 1.0 dBm + 1.0dBi = 2.0 dBm 2.0 dBm = 1.58 mW Power density at a distance of 20 centimeters is: 4 C) 2 Rπ4 EIRP =S = 0.31 μW/cm 2 Where S = Power density (mW/cm^2), EIRP = Equivalent isotropic radiated power (mW), R = Distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (cm) 5.0 CONCLUSION: Based on the FCC Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) given in Table 1 of reference document (A) as 1 mW/cm 2 this device falls under the required limits.

The x in the product name is used for noting either an Ethernet version (C4-HTC2-E-y) or WiFi version (C4-HTC2-W-y). The WiFi version has an 802.11b/802.11g USB dongle shipped in a separate package that the user may place on an external USB port. The WiFi module has modular approval and carries its own FCC ID number. The –y suffix is used for color paint options. The 802.15.4 transceiver uses 15 channels in the 2400 to 2483.5 MHz band. The individual channels are shown in the following plots. dBm 2 -8 -18 -28 -38 -48 -58 -68 -78 -88 -98 557 Trace A Start: 2.4025 GHzStop: 2.4275 GHz 1/18/2007 3:17:38 PMHP8566B Trace A Lower 5 channels 1 1 2.4050 GHz -8.0000 dBm 2 2 2.4102 GHz -7.9000 dBm 3 3 2.4152 GHz -8.1000 dBm 4 4 2.4203 GHz -7.6000 dBm 5 5 2.4253 GHz -8.8000 dBm COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORY TEST REPORT: 557 FCC ID#: R33C4HC3001 Page 6 of 54 dBm 2 -8 -18 -28 -38 -48 -58 -68 -78 -88 -98 557 Trace A Start: 2.4275 GHzStop: 2.4525 GHz 1/18/2007 3:14:36 PMHP8566B Trace A Middle 5 channels 1 1 2.4301 GHz -7.6000 dBm 2 2 2.4354 GHz -7.0000 dBm 3 3 2.4404 GHz -6.7000 dBm 4 4 2.4455 GHz -6.5000 dBm 5 5 2.4506 GHz -6.6000 dBm dBm 2 -8 -18 -28 -38 -48 -58 -68 -78 -88 -98 557 Trace A Start: 2.4525 GHzStop: 2.4775 GHz 1/18/2007 3:07:13 PMHP8566B Trace A Upper 5 channels 1 1 2.4552 GHz -6.8000 dBm 2 2 2.4604 GHz -6.7000 dBm 3 3 2.4654 GHz -7.5000 dBm 4 4 2.4706 GHz -6.4000 dBm 5 5 2.4756 GHz -8.2000 dBm This report covers the 802.15.4 ZigBee transceiver and testing was performed to FCC Part 15 Subpart C.
