Technical description
- Carrier frequency: 125kHz ± 1%
- Modulation: ASK
- Supply voltage: 12 V
- Operating Temperature: -40℃ to 85℃
- Type of battery: car battery
- Range: < 6.0 m

LF Output
The LF output scenario used for Homologation is in accordance to the max. possible output power regarding telegram length and duty cycle at one antenna. The transmission period is 500ms and shall simulate the Start Authentication under worst case conditions. 6 antennas are deployed in the product, and they are emitted sequentially.
2 of short antennas send Manchester Code(modulated wave) step by step(antenna current: 500mA and 672mA), then all of antennas send CW(continuous unmodulated waves) step by step(one of antenna current 500mA and others 672mA).
| Transmission period: 500ms | ||
| Telegram | Duration | Code |
| Start Authentication (WUP) | 35ms | Manchester (modulated wave) |
| RSSI | 3ms | CW (continuous unmodulated
waves) |
FCC Compliance Statement
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause harmful interference, and
- This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
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 from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution
Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
