Sep. 2012 The CT300 radio facilitates a IEEE 802.15.4 based radio communication. It uses a proprietary wireless communication stack to implement a star or cluster network with multiple nodes communicating simultaneously. The radio module provides three basic functions:
- Transparent communication between network node and network coordinator
- Writing parameters to the radio module for configuration to determine its mode of operation such as the configuration of a node or coordinator
- Reading parameters from the radio module All communication to the radio module is established through a UART communication interface. 2 of 8 26.

It is preferred that the screws and stand offs are made of a non conductive and non-ferromagnetic material such as plastic or ceramics. Alternatively the module can be directly soldered on to a carrier board utilizing the radio module using connector J2 and J6. 4 of 8 User Manual For CT300 26.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation. If using a permanently affixed label, the modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC identification number, and, if the FCC identification number is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID:
XYZMODEL1 or Contains FCC ID: XYZMODEL1. Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization. Installers must be provided with antenna installation instructions and transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. 7.2 Industry Canada Certification This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
