Components of the Personal Monitor: • Red Button: See Personal Monitor Basic Operations below for functions of the Red Button. • Battery Level indicator : 3 bars indicate a full battery, 2 bars indicate a half full battery, and 1 bar indicates a low battery. • Signal Strength indicator : Displays the level of strength of the signal between the Personal Monitor and the Head Unit. If blinking, there is no connection, see Troubleshooting the Personal Monitor below. • PPM Reading: Displays the current H 2 S reading. • H2S Sensor: Measures the surrounding air for H 2 S gas. • Lockout/Tagout (Red) Device: Attaching this device to the Personal Monitor will disable frequencies from being transmitted from the Personal Monitor. If the Lockout/Tagout device is attached to the Personal Monitor it CANNOT communicate with the Shepherd Head Unit. • Bump Test (Blue) Device: Attaching this device to the Personal Monitor will allow you to test the accuracy of the H 2 S sensor without sending the Shepherd Head Unit into Alarm mode. B. Personal Monitor Basic Operations • Single (1) click of the Red button: Transmit a signal to the Shepherd Head Unit. (Displays the Personal Monitor ID number and subsequent settings.) • Double (2) clicking the Red button: Temporarily quiets an Alarm. • Panic Mode: To activate PANIC mode press and hold the red button. Once monitor begins to flash and vibrate, PANIC mode has been activated. This will send an immediate signal to the emergency response call list. C.

Type of Confidentiality Requested Exhibit X Permanent Block Diagrams X Permanent Operation Description/Theory of Operation X Permanent Schematics LDARtoois has spent substantial effort in developing this product and it is one of the first of its kind in industry. Having the subject information easily available to "competition" would negate the advantage they have achieved by developing this product. Not protecting the details of the design will result in financial hardship. Permanent Confidentiality: The applicant requests the exhibits listed above as permanently confidential be permanently withheld from public review due to materials that contain trade secrets and proprietary information not customarily released to the public. Short-Term Confidentiality: The applicant requests the exhibits selected above as short term confidential be withheld from public view for a period of 180 days from the date of the Grant of Equipment Authorization and prior to marketing. This is to avoid premature release of sensitive information prior to marketing or release of the product to the public. Applicant is also aware that they are responsible to notify ACB in the event information regarding the product or the product is made available to the public. ACB will then release the documents listed above for public disclosure pursuant to FCC Public Notice DA 04-1705. NOTE for Industry Canada Applications: The applicant understands that until such time that 1C distinguishes between Short Term and Permanent Confidentiality, either type of marked exhibit above will simply be marked Confidential when submitted to 1C.
