ICES-003 Class B NoticeAvis NMB-003, Class B This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. ATTENTION ATTENTION ATTENTION Note: 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 Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different form that to which the receiver is connected Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help ATTENTION This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).

The following application is submitted on behalf of our client, Sensus Metering System, for evaluation of their model CL200 for a original certification under FCC Part 24D, 90, and 101C. The product is a device that is used for installing endpoints and for walk-by reading of Sensus FlexNet Smartpoints through wireless links. Smartpoints are RF devices which are installed in conjunction with water, gas, and electric meters. Typically the Command Link II (CL2) is used by the Utility or third party professional installation personnel. The Touchcouple inductive interface is for future consideration and will be turn off for this application. I have reviewed the application and supporting documentation and have found them to comply with FCC requirements. I recommend this application for certification.
