The rescueME PLB1 and PLB2 have been tested in accordance with RTCM SC110-STD (2002). The rescueME PLB1 and PLB2 conform to the COSPAS-SARSAT technical standards T001 and T.007. The rescueME PLB1 and PLB2 have been assessed for compliance with the COSPAS-SARSAT technical. A copy of the C/S approval reports are submitted with this application. The PLB2 differs to the PLB1 by omission of the GPS receiver, its antenna and associated components only. The transmission characteristics are identical. The PLB1 and PLB2 are setup in the factory at the time of manufacture. There is no user or service centre tuning required. Therefore there is no tune up procedure is available.

RF Exposure Info

Document No. Document Type Issue 01.00 Date Last Amended 14/02/2013 Approved: Last Amended by David Sheekey Document Title RF Exposure Exemption Justification Page 1 of 1 Document printed on 19/02/2013 Ocean Signal has declared that this device is exempt from SAR evaluation under RSS102, with the following justification. During Cospas-Sarsat testing the maximum measured peak output power (PEIRP) at 406.040MHz was determined to be 17.9Watts. (from the value of EIRP maxEOL from test report 12/1410 Annex 5.1. 42.5dBm equates to 10^ (42.5/10) = 17.9W . ) Note that this is the peak power measured for each transmission. In assessing whether this radiated test meets the requirements of RSS102 section 3.2.2, the operation mode selected is the Cospas Sarsat configuration for evaluation of PLBs held off ground, ie in the hand. The 406MHz transmission is 520mS every 50seconds (on average), giving a duty cycle time averaged of 6 minutes of (7 x 0.520)/(6 x 60) = 3.64/360 = 0.01 This gives a time averaged EIRP of 17.9W x 0.01 = 179milliWatts. From RSS102, section 2.5.1 devices in the frequency range 3kHz to 1GHz are exempt from routine SAR evaluation if the radiated power is less than 200mW. The transmission at 121.5MHz was measured at a maximum EIRP of 41.37mw (from Test Report 12/1093 to RTCM SC11010.2) which is below the 200mW exemption in RSS102 section 2.5.1. Ocean Signal has made the following statement in the User Manual. “This product has been evaluated for compliance with the FCC exposure limits given in CFR47 part 2.1093 at a distance of 3.5cm for “General Use Only”. This product also complies with EN62479 (EU) and RSS-102 (Canada).” The justification for the 3.5cm is based on the following assumptions and calculations. The PLB is intended to be operated held in the hand therefore from CFR47 chapter 2.1093.d.2 the limit for General Population is 4W/kg. SAR = (σ x E 2 )/ρ Where σ is the specific conductivity of a body in S/m (121.5MHZ = 0.8 and 406MHz = 0.93) E is the incident field strength inV/m ρ is the mass density in Kgm 3 Therefore for 406MHz Distance at which 4W/kg is met = ((377 x 0.93 x 0.179)/(4 x 1000 x 4 x π)) 0.5 = 3.5cm For 121.5MHz Distance at which 4W/kg is met = ((377 x 0.8 x 0.0414)/(4 x 1000 x 4 x π)) 0.5 = 1.6cm Signed on behalf of Ocean Signal David Sheekey Product and Approvals Manager
