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. Only the antenna provided is authorized for use with the M-2910. If the antenna is lost or damaged, please contact Beckwith Electric Co., Inc. to secure a replacement antenna. This product generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency (RF). If it is not installed and used in accordance with the operating instructions, it can cause harmful interference to communications. If this equipment causes harmful interference to radio or television reception, the user should try and correct the interference by:
Reorienting or relocating the receiving/transmitting antenna
Connecting the equipment into an outlet on a different circuit from the M-2910. Increasing the separation between the equipment and the M-2910 If these do not correct the interference, consult an experienced radio/television technician for assistance. Correcting such interference is the responsibility of the user, not the manufacturer. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Beckwith Electric Co., Inc. may void the user's authority to operate the equipment. FCC Radiation Exposure Statement This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for uncontrolled equipment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of at least 20 cm between the radiator and person's body (excluding extremities) and must not be located or operated with any other antenna or transmitter. 2 M-2910 BlueJay Universal Data Transceiver The M-2910 BlueJay Wireless Data Transceiver is a self-contained short-range wireless communication device (SRD) that is used for transferring serial communication data between Intelligent Electrical Device's
(IEDs) and computers hosting control software in an industrial environment. The M-2910 is based on an Intersil direct sequence spread spectrum chip set that operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. The M-2910 design meets the category for low power devices (LPDs) standard requirement for license-free operation. Interface The M-2910 is equipped with a dual-row, ten-pin (2 x 5) header connector utilizing a Serial Peripheral Interface
(SPI) link capable of up to 500 Kbps communication speed. Data Transmission:
Error Detection 16 bit CRC (10-5 BER at 70dBm)
Maximum throughput 1 Mbps RF, 2400 to 115.2 Kbps interface baud rate Communication The M-2910 conditions the data and transmits it over a half-duplex direct sequence spread spectrum radio operating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. The over-the-air data rate is 1 Mbps. Transmit:
Frequency Range 2400 MHz to 2483.5 MHz
Output Power 30 mW
Modulation DBPSK
Occupied Bandwidth 20 MHz
Spurious Emissions 50 mV/meter
Harmonic Emissions 500 uV/meter
Spreading Method Direct Sequence 11 bit code
Center Band Carrier 2.450 GHz Receive:
Sensitivity -93 dBm
Selectivity 25 MHz The M-2910 BlueJay Wireless Data Transceiver must be used with a cable extension when the M-2910 is mounted inside a metal enclosure. Antennas must be oriented in the same plane and located in view of the corresponding BlueJay transceiver. Beckwith Electric cable extensions are available in 18", 6' and 13'
lengths (See Accessories). NOTE: For maximum range, all antennae must be oriented in the same plane.

Maximum power draw is 1.75 W
(350 mA). Power Requirements:
Operating Voltage +5 V dc 10%
Transmit Current 350 mA (1.75 W)
Receive Current 350 mA (1.75 W)
Idle Current 200 mA (1.00 W)
Sleep Current 30 mA (0.15 W) Configuration The M-2910 is configurable using parameters set into the M-2600A/M-2667A, using SlimCom: The following parameters can be set:
Wireless Source (unit) Address (1250)
Wireless Destination (Transmit) Address (1255)
Wireless Multicast (Receive) Address (251254)
Peer-to-Peer Unit Addresses (1250) Configuring the M-2910 To configure the M-2910, the unit must be installed on an M-2600A/M-2667A control, and the control connected to a PC running SlimCom, using a RS-232 cable. The unit may be configured through the SlimCom menus 4
