Bluetooth Interface Board Users Manual Rev.02 / Nov-08-2017 Features The Bluetooth Interface board has the following features:

1) A built-in Bluetooth module 2) Bluetooth 2.1+EDR compatible 3) Power class: Class 2 4) External dimensions: 40 mm 43 mm Manufacturer: Seiko Epson Corporation Model Name: M291A Product Name: Bluetooth Interface board Integration to the end product The Bluetooth Interface Board has to be installed and used in accordance with the technical description/installation instructions provided by the manufacturer. The system may only be implemented in the configuration that was authorized. Note that any changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the users authority to operate this equipment. Labelling The Bluetooth Interface board labelled as below. FCC ID: BKMFBM291A IC: 1052C-M291A The proposed FCC ID/IC labels format are to be placed on the module. If FCC ID/IC are not visible when the module is installed into the system, Contains FCC ID: BKMFBM291A and Contains IC: 1052C-M291A shall be placed on the outside of final host system. Bluetooth Interface Board Users Manual 1 Regulatory Information FCC/IC Caution Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equipment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This device complies with part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canadas licence-exempt RSSs. 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. Le prsent appareil est conforme la partie 15 des rgles de la FCC et aux normes des 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'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. 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 or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Bluetooth Interface Board Users Manual 2

- 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 equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that are deemed to comply without testing of specific absorption rate (SAR). Cet quipement est conforme aux limites dexposition aux rayonnements nonces pour un environnement non contrl et respecte les rgles les radiolectriques (RF) de la FCC lignes directrices d'exposition et dexposition aux frquences radiolectriques (RF) CNR-102 de lIC. Cet quipement met une nergie RF trs faible qui est considre conforme sans valuation du dbit dabsorption spcifique (DAS). Instructions to OEM Integrators If other radio devices are to be integrated with this module, an additional evaluation and FCC/IC submission may be required. Integrators are responsible for such additional evaluation and FCC/IC submission. Bluetooth Interface Board Users Manual 3
