The modular approval allows the end user to integrate the module into a nished product without obtaining subsequent and separate FCC approvals for intentional radiation, provided no changes or modications are made to the module circuitry. Changes or modications could void the users authority to operate the equipment. The end user must comply with all of the instructions provided by the Grantee, FORT Robotics, which indicate installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance. The nished product is required to comply with all applicable FCC equipment authorizations, regulations, requirements and equipment functions not associated with the transmitter module portion. For example, compliance must be demonstrated to regulations for other transmitter components within the host product; to requirements for unintentional radiators (Part 15 Subpart B Unintentional Radiators), such as digital devices, computer peripherals, radio receivers, etc.; and to additional authorization requirements for the non-transmitter functions on the transmitter module (i.e., Verication, or Declaration of Conformity) (e.g., transmitter modules may also contain digital logic functions) as appropriate. Modication to this product will void the users authority to operate this equipment. The OEM is still responsible for verifying end product compliance with FCC Part 15, subpart B limits for unintentional radiators through an accredited test facility. 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. 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. 267-515-5880 fortrobotics.com FCC ID Labeling The FORT ISM Radio is assigned the FCC ID number: 2A8I8-100235 If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the nished product into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use the following or similar wording:
Contains FCC ID: 2A8I8-100235 In addition to marking the product with the appropriate FCC ID, the end product user manual may also require specic information based on the digital device classication. Refer to the FCC Rules, Title 47, Subchapter A, Part 15, Subpart B, Chapter 15.105 for specic wording of the notices. FCC RF Exposure Requirements All transmitters regulated by FCC must comply with RF exposure requirements. KDB 447498 General RF Exposure Guidance provides direction in determining whether proposed or existing transmitting facilities, operations, or devices comply with limits for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) elds adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). This module is approved for installation into mobile and/or portable host platforms and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter guidelines. End users must be provided with transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF Exposure compliance. This module may be used for mobile or portable applications. In order to meet RF exposure requirements, a 20cm separation distance is required for mobile applications and a 3cm separation distance from extremity to antenna is required for portable applications. The end product manufacturer or integrator shall be responsible for nal RF safety conformity. IC Statement The FORT ISM Radio module is certied for use in Canada under Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) Radio Standards Specication (RSS) RSS-247 and RSSGen. 267-515-5880 fortrobotics.com IC ID Labeling The FORT ISM Radio is assigned the IC ID number: 29381-100235 The host device shall be properly labeled to identify the module within the host device. The Industry Canada certication label of a module shall be clearly visible at all times when installed in the host device, otherwise the host device must be labeled to display the Industry Canada certication number of the module, preceded by the words Contains transmitter module, or the word Contains, or similar wording expressing the same meaning, as follows:
Contains transmitter module IC: 29381-100235 User Manual Notice for License-Exempt Radio Apparatus: User manuals for license-exempt radio apparatus shall contain the following or equivalent notice in a conspicuous location in the user manual or alternatively on the device or both:
This device complies with Industry Canada license 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 prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. Transmitter Antenna: User manuals for transmitters shall display the following notice in a conspicuous location: 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. Conformment la rglementation d'Industrie Canada, le prsent metteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou infrieur) approuv pour l'metteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de rduire les risques de brouillage radiolectrique l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonne quivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dpasse pas l'intensit ncessaire l'tablissement d'une communication satisfaisante. 267-515-5880 fortrobotics.com IC RF Exposure Requirements All transmitters regulated by IC must comply with RF exposure requirements listed in RSS-102 - Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure Compliance of Radio Communication Apparatus (All Frequency Bands). This module is approved for installation into mobile and/or portable host platforms and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with Industry Canada's multi-transmitter guidelines. End users must be provided with transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF Exposure compliance. 267-515-5880 fortrobotics.com
