This device must strictly be used in accordance with the guild lines explain in this documentation and any changes or use of parts and additional devices which is not recommended by the manufacturer may cause harmful injuries and the manufacturer is not liable for such cases. Users must consult with the most recent documentation available at the time of purchase. The manufacturer is not responsible for the use of outdated or unsuitable documentation that may lead to incorrect use of the device. Any modification and/or repairs must be conducted by the manufacturer or its qualified representative. 3 Module Application and Operation Frequency MHF1 module is a RFID-reader module designed for the purpose of reading and encoding passive RFID-tags. MHF1 Module operates at 13.56 MHz and is suitable for applications that require RFID read and write in a short to medium range and can be installed as an embedded module in other devices in combination with a certified antenna. MHF1 Module is encapsulated in an RF shielding that inhibits EM interference. 4 Reader Module and Accessories Table 1 Type Model Number Description Reader Module MHF1 Antenna: external Antenna connector: U.FL and Separate 2 pole Connector Supply: 5 V DC RF shielding: Metal cap I/O: 4 Digital inputs/outputs Serial Interface: TTL Compatible Antenna ANTH100-BL Desktop Antenna Antenna ANTH2 Embedded Antenna Antenna ANTH-SP1 Embedded Antenna MHF1 Reader Module User Manual Revision 0 Intelletto Technologies Inc. www.intelletto.com Page 4 of 14 5 Physical characteristics Following figure 1 shows the physical dimensions for the MHF1 Module. Figure 1 MHF1 Reader Module User Manual Revision 0 Intelletto Technologies Inc. www.intelletto.com Page 5 of 14 6 Terminal Connections Figure 2 shows the pin assignment for terminal connections J1 and J2. Both terminals are designed to be used with 0.1” (2.54mm) socket connector or alternatively soldered directly to a PCB with proper footprint. Application of each pin is defined in table 1 and 2. External approved antennas can be used with MHF1 module through a 50 Ω coaxial cable connected to RF receptacle Conn1. Conn1 is an ultra miniature RF connector installed on the PCB under EMI shielding cap. Please see the antenna connection section of this manual for more information on approved antennas and connection to Conn1.

Mar.11.2010 Intelletto Technologies Inc. www.intelletto.com Page 1 of 1 Request for Transmitter Modular Approval FCC ID: X7X-MHF1 Transmitter Module Characteristics 1 Have its own RF shielding Device is equipped with metal shielding. See the user manual for the picture. 2 Have buffered modulation/data inputs (if such inputs are provided) All the inputs to the modules are buffered through microprocessor input. 3 Have its own power supply regulator Internal 3.3V power regulator 4 Meet the antenna requirement of section 15.203 and 15.204 b & c. Device is equipped with unique antenna connectors (U.FL & RPSMA). Refer to user manual for the list of approved antennas. 5 Be tested in a stand-alone configuration, i.e. the antenna, AC or DC power and data input/output lines must be connected to the module but, the module must not be inside another case during testing. Device was test in a stand-alone configuration. See test images for more information. 6 Be labeled with its own FCC ID number, and if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. Two distinct FCC ID sample labels are introduced in the user manual. One is to be placed on the module and the other is to be placed on the end device enclosure. See the user manual for more information and placement of the labels. 7 The modular transmitter must comply with any specific rule or operating requirements applicable to the transmitter and the manufacturer must provide adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements. No manual adjustment provided to end user. 8 The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure requirements in its final configuration. Not applicable. Since the unit operates under section 15.225 of the FCC Rules with very low levels of RF energy. Intelletto Technologies Inc. Homayoun Ahmadi
