The transceiver consists of a fully integrated frequency synthesizer, a power amplifier, receiver chain with demodulator, a crystal oscillator and a modulator. It provides extensive hardware support for packet handling, data buffering, burst transmissions, clear channel assessment, link quality indication, and wake-
on-radio. The main operating parameters and 64-byte transmit/receive FIFOs of the module can be controlled via an SPI interface. Current consumption is very low in receive mode 15.7mA, 1.2kBaud and 200nA sleep mode. Fast start time, 240 s from sleep to Rx or Tx mode. The PN17TR module is designed and made for WiLAS series products not for sale on public or other manufacture host products. Unit 4, 2 Southridge St. Eastern Creek NSW, Australia Page 1 PN17TR 915MHz Transceiver Module 3 Transceiver State Diagram Inventis Technology Pty Ltd After initial setup of registers for desired behavior, the normal operation flow diagram is shown as follows. In applications of infrequent data transmissions the transceiver would be in sleep mode to save power (400nA). From there it would be woken up and enter idle mode. As part of the wake up process the crystal oscillator is started (~240S) and the digital microcontroller interface is powered up. Before transmit or receive the frequency synthesizer needs to be started (FS Wakeup) and having been powered off (or idle for a while) the control loop of the VCO/PLL needs to be calibrated (calibrate). A data frame is loaded into the transmit FIFO and the TX mode is entered. The transceiver will transmit the data and enter idle mode after completion. When transmit is complete RX mode is entered to wait for the acknowledge frame. Once a frame is received the transceiver will again enter idle mode. If no acknowledge frame is received within a given timeout the data frame would be transmitted. After the last data has successfully been transmitted the transceiver would again be put in sleep mode.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This device 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 device does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the device off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the device 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. WARNING: To assure continued compliance, any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. Limited single Modular approval, FCC FCC ID: 2ACT2-PN17TR IMPORTANT NOTE:
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from all persons and must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 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. In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or collocation with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for reevaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users. As long as a condition above is met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). Unit 4, 2 Southridge St. Eastern Creek NSW, Australia Page 20 PN17TR 915MHz Transceiver Module Inventis Technology Pty Ltd 8.2 Labeling instructions When integrating the PN17TR 915MHz Transceiver Module into the final product, ensure that the FCC and IC labeling requirements specified below are satisfied. Based on the Public Notice from FCC, the product into which the ST transmitter module is installed must display a label referring to the enclosed module. The label should use wording like the following:
Contains FCC ID: 2ACT2-PN17TR Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may also be used. Unit 4, 2 Southridge St. Eastern Creek NSW, Australia Page 21
