The vital signs transmitter is a comfortable, easy-to-use personal health monitoring device that may be worn continuously 24 hours a day. The vital signs transmitter automatically transmits medical data via the cellular modem to the Clinical Monitoring Center whenever your electrocardiogram (ECG) or other monitored physiological parameters exceed normal limits. Critical care specialists at the Clinical Monitoring Center will analyze data as it is received from the vital signs transmitter and may then communicate directly with you and take whatever action is deemed most appropriate at that time. If for any reason you are unable to respond, Emergency Medical Service (EMS) personnel will be dispatched to your location using the information provided by the global positioning system (GPS). The monitoring service also provides an Immediate Voice Response service option that allows you to depress the Event Button to alert and speak directly with the critical care specialists at the Clinical Monitoring Center at any time, for any reason. Your vital signs and clinical reports are also available to authorized personnel (i.e., yourself, physician, relative, guardian, etc.) who may securely “log on” to www.biowatchmed.com to view these reports for evaluation and tracking. 3 How the vital signs transmitter and Personal Health Monitoring Services should be used: •To monitor ECG and heart rate •The vital signs transmitter also captures: - body temperature DO NOT use the vital signs transmitter and Personal Health Monitoring Services: •To diagnose heart disease •To replace physician check-ups The vital signs transmitter is intended for use by only the registered user and should NOT be shared with others. DO NOT use the vital signs transmitter in combination with an external cardiac defibrillator. WARNING TYPE BF 1. Instruction Manual 2. Guide to Getting Started 3. VST 3 Monitoring Belt 4.

Products & Services Agreement These items are included with your vital signs transmitter: 4 GET TO KNOW YOUR VITAL SIGNS TRANSMITTER The vital signs transmitter uses built-in electrodes and other physiological sensors to monitor and capture two channels of electrocardiogram (ECG) including heart rate and body temperature. The built-in cellular data modem and phone provide both data and voice communications between you and Biowatch Medical’s Clinical Monitoring Center. The vital signs transmitter also uses a rechargeable battery and a GPS. Front View Speaker Charging Port VST 3 Rear View Electrodes Microphone Event Button LED Charging Indicator 5 How the Vital Signs Transmitter Works The vital signs transmitter automatically transmits a notifica- tion via its cellular modem to the Clinical Monitoring Center whenever your ECG or other physiological parameters exceed normal limits. Clinical Monitoring Center Intervention If the Clinical Monitoring Center staff determines that it is necessary to contact you due to an abnormal ECG or other physiological abnormality, they will do so by placing a call to the vital signs transmitter. When an incoming call is received by the vital signs transmitter, it will vibrate to alert you of the incoming call. Within five seconds of this vibration, a voice channel is opened and allows the critical care specialists at the Clinical Monitoring Center to communicate directly with you and take whatever action is deemed most appropriate at that time. 6 Emergency Medical Service (EMS) Intervention If for any reason you are unable to respond, EMS personnel will be dispatched to your location using the information provided by the GPS. Event Button Intervention The vital signs transmitter also provides an Event Button that allows you to alert the critical care specialists when you feel dizziness, pain, palpitations or other medical symptoms. To send an alert, depress and release the Event Button. Once the Event Button has been fully depressed, the vital signs transmitter will vibrate to notify you that your medical data has been transmitted for review. The data is reviewed and analyzed by the critical care specialist who will initiate further interventional activities if needed. Immediate Voice Response Intervention* To use the Immediate Voice Response service option, depress the Event Button. * This is an optional service feature that requires additional monthly and per-use fees…

2130271 Rev 1.0 SB555 Embedded Modem Hardware Integration Guide Addendum Original Document2130075 SB555 Hardware Integration Guide Revision1.0 (April 2002) 2130271 Rev 1.0Nov.021 1 1: RF Integration • Receiver sensitivity • Matching • Antenna optionsReceiver sensitivity Page 79 of the of the Hardware Integration Guide includes “Table 7-1: Radio specifications”. This table has been corrected to: The receiver sensitivity in the PCS band has changed from -104 dBm to less than -106 dBm. The corrosponding sensitivity on the Cellular band now indicates less than -104 dBm. Matching antenna and cable The text on page 83 refering to antenna gain and cable loss should read: “Overall system antenna gain, with cable loss should be ≤+9 dBi. Keep in mind that your achieved value will have an impact on radiated power and RF exposure.” Antenna options Page 83 text refering antenna requirements to Table 7-1 is specifically for frequency band information. Table 7-1: Radio specifications Transmitter powerMaximum 224 mW into 50Ω (+23.5 dBm) Closed loop frequency stability ± 150 Hz PCS band Receiver sensitivity< -106.5 dBm Transmit band1850–1910 MHz Receive band1930–1990 MHz Channel spacing1.25 MHz Cellular band Receiver sensitivity < -104 dBm Transmit band824–849 MHz Receive band869–894 MHz Channel spacing1.25 MHz 2130271 Rev 1.0Nov.022 2 2: FCC Approval •FCC • Mobile vs. portable • Mobile approval and RF exposure • Product labelingThe Sierra Wireless SB555 embedded modem for CDMA2000 has been approved by the FCC for mobile applications. Chapter 7: “RF Integration” has been amended. A section headed FCC should be added, as follows. FCC For operation in the United States, your integration is required to meet appropriate regulatory requirements for stand-alone operation, including FCC parts 2, 15, 22, and 24. FCC Part 15 tests must be performed on the “whole device” and are therefore your responsibility. Mobile vs. portable devices The Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering & Technology has published a bulletin, “Evalu- ating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields”, OET Bulletin 65. This provides a detailed description of the difference between mobile and portable devices. The FCC guidelines differentiate between these devices according to the antenna’s proximity to people, either the user or others nearby. MobileThe FCC defines a mobile device as being designed for use “in other than fixed locations and to generally be used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 centi- meters is normally maintained between radiating structures and the body of the user or nearby persons.” Mobile devices include vehicle-mounted systems designed to be used by people that are typically well separated from the antenna. This also includes wireless devices associated with a personal computer, provided the antenna is kept at least 20 cm away from people. These devices are normally evaluated for exposure potential with relation to Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits. The FCC rules for evaluating mobile devices for RF compliance are found in 47 CFR part 2.1091. Hardware Integration Guide AddendumFCC Approval 2130271 Rev 1.0Nov.023 PortableA portable device has a transmitter “designed to be used with any part of its radiating structure in direct contact with the user’s body or within 20 centimeters of the body of a user or bystanders under normal operating conditions.” This category includes hand-held cellular telephones with the antenna built into the handset. Portable devices are evaluated with respect to the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) rules. These can be found in 47 CFR part 2.1093. Mobile approval and RF exposure requirements The SB555 module is approved for mobile operations only with respect to CFR 47 part 2.1091. FCC ID: N7NSB555 Note: If this module is intended to be used as a portable device, you are responsible for separate approval to satisfy the SAR requirements of part 2.1093. To ensure that the module meets the current FCC RF exposure guidelines, a separation distance of at least 20 cm (7.88") must be maintained between the module’s antenna and the body of the user and any nearby persons at all times and in all applica- tions and uses. Additionally, in mobile applications, maximum antenna gain must not exceed 9 dBi to comply with FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF radiation. Product labeling requirements For mobile devices, using the FCC approval obtained by Sierra Wireless, a label must be affixed to the outside of your end product—into which the authorized module is incorporated— with a statement similar to the following: This device contains TX FCC ID: N7NSB555 You need to provide a manual with your end product that clearly states the operating requirements and conditions that must be observed to ensure compliance with current FCC RF exposure guidelines (as detailed above). Hardware Integration Guide AddendumFCC Approval 2130271 Rev 1.0Nov.024 The warnings must appear in a prominent location in the User Guide for your product and may include: CAUTION Unauthorized modifications or changes not expressly approved by Sierra Wireless, Inc. could void compliance with regulatory rules, and thereby your authority to use this equipment.

Testing was performed at the Intertek Testing Services facility in Lexington, Kentucky. For the evaluation, the dosimetric assessment system DASY3 was used. The phantom employed was the "SAM Twin Phantom". The total uncertainty for the evaluation of the spatial peak SAR values averaged over a cube of 1g tissue mass had been assessed for this system to be ±27.4%. The device was tested at the maximum output power. This was accomplished using a Rhode & Schwarz CMU-200 base station simulator to force the device into a “call”. Once in a “call” the base station simulator was configured to send the EUT an “all up bits” signal which forced the device to transmit at maximum power output. The maximum spatial peak SAR value for the sample device averaged over 1g was found to be: Phantom Position Worst Case Extrapolated SARB 1g B mW/gTP 1 PT Flat Section PCS Band Channel 1175 with the Back of the VST3 Against the Phantom 1.086 Based on the worst case data presented above, the sample tested was found to be in compliance with the requirements defined in OET Bulletin 65, Supplement C (Edition 01-01).

For frequency stability versus temperature, testing the module requires a wider range of temperature at the higher extreme to account for the insulating and warming affects of the end-user device. We test up to 70 degrees C for the module alone rather than just 50 deg C for the module in the end user device. For the effect of variation of DC power supply on frequency stability, the DC supply to the module was varied to the extremes of its specified voltage range, 3.15 to 4.2 volts.
