Rhein Tech Laboratories, Inc. Client: Blackbird Technologies, Inc. 360 Herndon Parkway Model: Blackbird Asset Tracker Suite 1400 FCC ID: X6K-BAT-001 Herndon, VA 20170 Standards: FCC Part 25 http://www.rheintech.com Report #: 2010008 37 of 52 Appendix J: Manual Please refer to the following pages. BAT TM (Blackbird Asset Tracker) User Guide Prepared By: Blackbird Technologies, Inc. 13900 Lincoln Park Drive Suite 400 Herndon, VA 20171 June 2010 1 Firmware Version 6 This product uses satellite and terrestrial technologies that are inherently subject to transmission and reception limitations, and will operate intermittently under certain environmental conditions. Extreme weather or objects that prevent an unobstructed view of the sky may restrict reception or transmission of messages as well as acquisition of your global positioning system (GPS) coordinates. In addition, service may become limited or temporarily unavailable due to equipment failures or outages by the service providers. Accordingly, Blackbird cannot guarantee that the product will operate without interruption. The BAT device integrates with Blackbird Technologies’ Gotham system. The Gotham system is a comprehensive back-end solution for monitoring, operating, and managing tagging, tracking, and locating (TTL) devices and viewing associated geospatial data. For information about Blackbird’s other TTL products and services, and for technical support, contact the Blackbird Help Desk through the following email address: [email protected] Copyright 2010, Blackbird Technologies, Inc. All Rights Reserved Rev B 2 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. 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 when the equipment is operated in a residential environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, 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 This device has been shown to be compliant for localized specific absorption rate (SAR) for uncontrolled environment/general exposure limits specified in ANSI/IEEE Std. C95.1-1999 and has been tested in accordance with the measurement procedures specified in IEEE 1528-2003, OET Bulletin 65 Supp. C and Safety Code 6. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Blackbird could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Copyright 2010, Blackbird Technologies, Inc. All Rights Reserved 3 BAT DIAGRAM BASIC USAGE Device Description—BAT is a small, global positioning system (GPS)-enabled, satellite transmitter capable of sending its position as well as emergency beacons and brevity messages. Batteries —BAT requires two AA lithium batteries (1.5V only). To replace the batteries, follow the steps below. 1. Rotate the ¼-turn screw counterclockwise. 2. Remove the battery door. 3. Insert batteries in direction of diagram located in battery casing. 4. Replace door. 5. Rotate the ¼-turn screw clockwise until it clicks. Power On —To power on BAT, press and hold Power until a short vibration occurs. Power Off —To power off BAT, press and hold Power until the GPS LED extinguishes and two short vibrations occur. NOTE: When Emergency Mode is activated, the BAT must be unlocked before Power Off is functional. 4 LED Indicators —BAT is equipped with two LED indicators. The left LED indicates GPS status (RED or GREEN), and the right LED indicates transmission (TX) status (BLUE). LED Action LED Status GPS Acquiring GPS Rapid triple RED flash every 2 seconds GPS GPS acquired with Error ≥ 50M Double GREEN flash every 2 seconds GPS GPS acquired with Error < 50M Single GREEN flash every 2 seconds TX Preparing to transmit Flashing BLUE TX Transmission in progress Solid BLUE TX Satellite transmit failure detected Constant rapid BLUE flashing BOTH Emergency Mode started via A&D or Emergency button Flash in unison for 4 seconds BOTH Emergency beacon in progress Solid on BOTH Hardware failure Continuously flash in unison immediately following power on Transmission Status Vibration Indicators —BAT is equipped with a vibration motor, which indicates power on, power off, and transmission sent. A single vibration indicates power on and transmission sent, while a double vibration indicates power off. LED Settings —BAT is equipped with three LED settings: Visible, Infrared, and Off. The default mode is Visible. The user can toggle through the modes by pressing the LED button located above the GPS and TX LEDs. When BAT is in Infrared LED setting, the LED flashes are displayed in white and can only be viewed using infrared goggles or through some digital camera lenses. NOTE: The Infrared and Off LED settings are only available in Normal Mode. NOTE: The selected LED setting persists through power cycles. 5 Brevity Messages —A brevity message is activated by pressing and releasing buttons A through D or any 2-, 3-, or 4-button combinations. Each brevity message can be assigned a spec…
