The DWETH111 can receive UWB pulses from objects of interest and transmit time-sync data in real time. The DWETH111 is positioned around an area in which tracking and data collection are desired. The DWETH111s are small and easily movable allowing for quick setup and tear-down before and after use. This makes the Ciholas DWETH111s an ideal solution for fast and accurate real-time tracking. Ciholas DWETH111 2ALIR-DWETH111 3 Regulatory Information FCC Notice (For US Customers):
FCC ID: 2ALIR-DWETH111 Model: DWETH111 This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference. 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician to help. Changes and modifications not expressly approved by Ciholas, Inc. can void your authority to operate this equipment under Federal Communications Commissions rules. Ciholas DWETH111 2ALIR-DWETH111 4 Usage Instructions Overview The DWETH111 receives real-time UWB beacons from tags attached to an object of interest. These beacons are used to calculate the real-time location. The DWETH111 is capable of receiving real-time data from UWB tags or interfacing with other DWETH111s placed around the tracking area in order to calculate real-time position and collect sensor data. The DWETH111 is a standard Ethernet device and is powered via Power over Ethernet. Placement The DWETH111 devices should be distributed throughout the desired tracking area. To achieve a higher precision of position tracking within an area a higher density of DWETH111s can be used. Example Mounting:
