Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement 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 interference in a residential 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 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. 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. FCC/IC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. To comply with FCC/IC RF exposure limits for general population/uncontrolled exposure, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter 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. INDUSTRY CANADA STATEMENTS 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. 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 permitted for successful communication. This radio transmitter, 8053B-COMAD400V2, has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device. This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of 8.5 dBi. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 8.5 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

DCLARATIONS DE INDUSTRIE Canada Cet appareil est conforme norme Industrie Canada RSS exempts de licence (s). Son fonctionnement est soumis aux deux conditions suivantes: 1) cet appareil ne doit pas provoquer dinterfrences, et 2) cet appareil doit accepter toute interfrence, y compris les interfrences pouvant provoquer un fonctionnement indsirable de lappareil. Conformment aux normes dIndustrie Canada, ce transmetteur radio ne peut fonctionner quavec une antenne dont le type et le gain maximum sont approuvs par Industrie Canada. Pour rduire les risques dinterfrences radio encourus par dautres utilisateurs, le type et le gain de lantenne doivent tre choisis de faon ce que la puissance rayonne isotrope quivalente (PIRE) ne soit pas suprieure celle ncessaire pour tablir une bonne communication. Ce transmetteur radio, 8053B-COMAD400V2, a t approuv par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d'antenne numrs ci-dessous avec le gain maximal admissible et l'impdance d'antenne requise pour chaque type d'antenne indiqu. Types d'antennes ne figurent pas dans cette liste, ayant un gain suprieur au maximum le gain indiqu pour ce type, sont strictement interdites pour une utilisation avec cet appareil. Ce dispositif a t conu en vue de fonctionner avec les antennes numres ci-dessous, et ayant un gain maximal de 8,5 dBi. Il est formellement interdit dutiliser avec ce dispositif des antennes non comprises dans cette liste ou des antennes ayant un gain suprieur 8,5 dBi.

Schlage Lock Company Responsibilities to comply with FCC and Industry Canada Regulations The COMAD400V2 900 MHz Communications Board Module has been certified for integration into products only by Schlage Lock Company under the following conditions:
1. The antenna(s) must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times. 2. The transmitter module must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However Schlage Lock Company 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.). IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for certain configurations or co-
location with another transmitter), then the FCC and Industry Canada authorizations are no longer considered valid and the FCC ID and IC Certification Number cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, Schlage Lock Company will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product
(including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC and Industry Canada authorization. End Product Labeling The COMAD400V2 900 MHz Communications Board Module is labeled with its own FCC ID and IC Certification Number. If the FCC ID and IC Certification Number are 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. In that case, the final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: XPB-COMAD400V2 Contains Transmitter Module IC: 8053B-COMAD400V2 or Contains FCC ID: XPB-COMAD400V2 Contains IC: 8053B-COMAD400V2 Schlage Lock Company, the OEM integrator of the COMAD400V2 900 MHz Communications Board module must only use the approved antenna(s) listed above, which have been certified with this module. Schlage Lock Company is aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module or change RF related parameters in the user manual of the end product. The user manual for the end product must include the following information in a prominent location:
To comply with FCC and Industry Canada RF radiation exposure limits for general population, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
