RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
FCC / ISED COMPLIANCE STATEMENTS
Disconnect power before installation or maintenance of the product.
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, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device contains license-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and
Economic Development Canada’s license-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference.
2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of

L’émetteur/récepteur exempt de licence contenu dans le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR
d’Innovation, Sciences et Développement économique 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;
2. L’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en
compromettre le fonctionnement.
To satisfy FCC/ISED RF exposure requirements a separation distance of 20 cm or more must be maintained
between the antenna of this device and persons during operation. Operation at closer than 20 cm is not
permitted.
Pour être conforme aux limites d’exposition aux ondes RF des normes FCC/ISED, une distance de séparation
d’au moins 20 cm doit être maintenue entre l’antenne de cet appareil et toute personne pendant son
opération. Mettre en opération cet appareil a une distance plus rapprochée que 20 cm n’est pas permis.

RF Module Integration Instructions
This module is not for sale and is only to be used within host products designed by Current Lighting
Solutions, LLC (the manufacturer of the module).
Applicable FCC Rules
• CFR47 FCC Part 15, Subpart C, 15.207
• CFR47 FCC Part 15, Subpart C, 15.209
• CFR47 FCC Part 15, Subpart C, 15.212
• CFR47 FCC Part 15, Subpart C, 15.247
• CFR 47 FCC Part 2, 2.1091
Operational Use Conditions
The input voltage to the module should be nominally 3.3VDC and the ambient temperature of the module
should not exceed 85C.
No trace antennas are used in this module. If the RF module’s on-board chip antenna is not used in the host
product, then the host product’s antenna should only be installed when the host product is manufactured.
(The antenna is not field replaceable.) The antenna must be installed to provide a separation distance of at
least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna
or transmitter, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter evaluation procedures.
RF Exposure
This module has been granted modular approval for fixed facility and mobile applications that maintain a
distance of 20 cm from a person’s body.
To comply with FCC / IC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to RF
radiation, the maximum antenna gain including cable loss in a mobile-only or fixed application exposure
condition must not exceed 2.5 dBi.
Qualified Antennas
The radio transmitter with FCC ID: 2AS3F-A1028250 and IC: 25008-A1028250 has been approved by
Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with
the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this list that have a gain greater
than the maximum gain indicated for any type listed are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
This module has been tested and certified with the on-board chip antenna and with an external antenna
connected to the RF pad (P30). External antennas permitted to be used with this module must meet the
following requirements:
• The antenna must be one of
the following types: chip antenna, connectorized coaxial PCB or
connectorized coaxial patch antenna
• The antenna must have a maximum gain of: 2.5 dBi
• The antenna impedance must be 50Ω.
• The antenna must use a unique antenna connection such as a miniaturized coaxial connector (such as a
U.FL or IPEX connector) or a component footprint within a printed circuit board layout.

Additional Testing
The final host / module combination needs to be evaluated against the FCC Part 15 Subpart B criteria for
unintentional radiators in order to be properly authorized for operation as a Part 15 digital device.
The host integrator installing this module into their product must ensure that the final composite product
complies with the FCC requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the FCC rules, including the
transmitter operation and should refer to guidance in KDB 996369.
Additional Information
This module may be used in host products without additional FCC / IC (Industry Canada) certification if the
host products meet the following conditions. Otherwise, additional FCC / IC approvals must be obtained.
• The host product with the module installed must be evaluated for simultaneous transmission
requirements.
• The users manual for the host product must clearly indicate the operating requirements and conditions
that must be observed to ensure compliance with current FCC / IC RF exposure guidelines.
• A label must be affixed to the outside of the host product with the following statements:
This device contains FCCID: 2AS3F-A1028250

interference in a residential
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
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.
— Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
— Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
— Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
