FCC Information and Compliance RF Exposure This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. For Class A Devices: “NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A 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 commercial 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. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.“ Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d’un type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l’émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité nécessaire à l’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante. This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.

Bowman Drive Buford, GA 30518 Re: FCC ID: YWZ-S3I0007 To Whom It May Concern: The following application is submitted on behalf of our client, Alpha - High Theft Solutions, A Division of Checkpoint Systems, Inc., for evaluation of their model S3I-0007 for certification under FCC Part 15.247. The S3I-0007 is a simple RF remote sensor operating in the frequency range 2405 – 2480 MHz that includes three different switches for communicating states to the S3i System. The product is placed on retail forward facing mechanisms and provides out of stock notification to in store S3I network. The S3I-0007 was tested in full to the requirements of the aforementioned rules and was found to be in compliance. Sincerely, Sam Wismer Vice President, Technology Advanced Compliance Solutions, Inc.

Technical Details Mode of Operation: IEEE 802.15.4 Frequency Range: 2405 MHz - 2480 MHz Number of Channels: 16 Channel Separation: 5 MHz Modulations: O-QPSK Antenna Type/Gain: Printed Circuit board wiggle / 2.15 dBi Input Power: 3 VDC (CR2450 Battery) Model Number: S3I-0007 Test Sample Serial Number(s): ACS#1 (Radiated Emissions), 14370199 (RF Conducted Measurements) Test Sample Condition: The equipment was provided in good condition without any physical damage. 1.4 Test Methodology and Considerations The EUT was evaluated for RF conducted and radiated emission measurements. For radiated emissions, including band edge, three orientations of the EUT were evaluated to determine worst case. The worst case orientation was determined to be the EUT flat on the tabletop. For the purpose of RF conducted measurements, the EUT was modified with a temporary 50 ohm antenna port. The EUT was also evaluated for unintentional emissions. The results are documented separately in a verification test report.
