United States Canada Europe Japan Korea Taiwan China A.1.1 UNITED STATES has received The BM62 module Federal Communications Commission (FCC) CFR47 Telecom-

munications, Part 15 Subpart C "Intentional Radiators"

modular approval in accordance with Part 15.212 Mod-

ular Transmitter approval. Modular approval allows the end user to integrate the BM62 module into a finished product without obtaining subsequent and separate FCC approvals for intentional radiation, provided no changes or modifications are made to the module cir-

cuitry. Changes or modifications could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. The end user must comply with all of the instructions provided by the Grantee, which indicate installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance. The finished product is required to comply with all appli-

cable FCC equipment authorizations regulations, requirements and equipment functions not associated with the transmitter module portion. For example, com-

pliance must be demonstrated to regulations for other transmitter components within the host product; to requirements for unintentional radiators (Part 15 Sub-

part 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., Verification, or Declaration of Conformity) (e.g., transmitter modules may also contain digital logic func-

tions) as appropriate. A.1.2 LABELING AND USER INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS The BM62 module has been labeled with its own FCC ID number, and if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the out-

side of the finished product into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording as follows:

Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID:

(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation A user's manual for the finished product should include the following statement:

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio trans-

mitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the trans-

mitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotrop-

ically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. Conformment la rglementation d'Industrie Can-

ada, 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 Can-

ada. 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'tablisse-

ment d'une communication satisfaisante. The above notice may be affixed to the device instead of displayed in the user manual. A.1.3 RF EXPOSURE All transmitters regulated by FCC must comply with RF exposure requirements. KDB 447498 General RF Exposure Guidance provides guidance in determining whether proposed or existing transmitting facilities, operations or devices comply with limits for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) fields adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). From the FCC Grant: Output power listed is conducted. This grant is valid only when the module is sold to OEM integrators and must be installed by the OEM or OEM integrators. This transmitter is restricted for use with the specific antenna(s) tested in this application for Certification and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitters within a host device, except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures.

X Request for Modular Approval Request for Limited Modular Approval Requirements Device Conditions Comply (Y/N) Single Modular Approval Requirements The radio elements must have the radio frequency circuitry must be shielded. Physical/discrete and tuning capacitors may be located external to the shield, but must be on the module assembly. The module shall have buffered modulation/data input(s) (if such inputs are provided) to ensure that the module will comply with the requirements set out in the applicable RSS standard under conditions of excessive data rates or over-modulation. The module shall have its own power supply regulation on the module. This is to ensure that the module will comply with the requirements set out in the applicable standard regardless of the design of the power supplying circuitry in the host device which houses the module. Requirements set out in the applicable standard regardless of the design of the power supplying circuitry in the host device which houses the module. The module shall comply with the provisions for external power amplifiers and antennas detailed in this standard. The Equipment certification submission shall contain a detailed description of the configuration of all antennas that will be used with the module. The module shall be tested for compliance with the applicable standard in a stand-

alone configuration, i.e. the module must not be inside another device during testing. The module has its own RF shielding. Shield Can is employed on the board structure, please see exhibition External Photo, the emission measurement was conducted without further shielding added. All modulation and data input(s) are buffered. The EUT has buffered data inputs, it is integrated on the RF chip Output power is controlled by the RF Chip and de-coupled from supply voltage variations. Frequencies are determined by Crystal The antenna is part of the module The modular transmitter was tested in a stand-alone configuration via a UART Interface. The module shall comply with the Category I equipment labelling requirements. In the exhibition OEM manual, there are Instructions given to the OEM on how to label the end product. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Y Y Y Y Y Y The modular transmitter complies with all specific rules or operating requirements that ordinarily apply to a complete transmitter and the manufacturer will provide adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements. A copy of these instructions is included in this application for equipment authorization:

Address compliance with the Commission's RF exposure limits in Sections 1.1310 and 2.1093. In addition, spread spectrum transmitters operating under Section 15.247 are required to address RF exposure compliance in accordance with Section 15.247(b)(4). 7 8a Instructions in User Manual Please refer the Maximum Permissible Exposure Information. Y Y A limited modular approval may be granted for single or split modular transmitters that do not comply with all of the above requirements, e.g., shielding, minimum signaling amplitude, buffered modulation/data inputs, or power supply regulation, if the manufacturer can demonstrate by alternative means in the application for equipment authorization that the modular transmitter meets all the applicable Part 15 requirements under the operating conditions in which the transmitter will be used. Limited modular approval also may be granted in those instances where compliance with RF exposure rules is demonstrated only for particular product configurations. The applicant for certification must state how control of the end product into which the module will be installed will be maintained such that full compliance of the end product is always ensured.
