8.1. Storage Conditions

The calculated shelf life in a sealed bag is 12 months if stored between 0°C and 70˚C at less than 90%  relative humidity (RH).

After the bag is opened, devices that are subjected to solder reflow or other high temperature  processes must be handled in the following manner:  

• Mounted within 168 hours in factory conditions, i.e., <30°C at 60% RH.

• Storage humidity needs to be maintained at <10%RH.

• Baking is necessary if the customer exposes the component to air for over 168 hrs. o Baking conditions: 125℃ for 8hrs.

LS10 – Data Sheet FCC regulatory conformance

FCC ID: 2ADBM-LS10

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.

(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

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 from that to which the receiver is connected.

-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

NOTE: Unauthorized changes will result in loss of device operating privileges.

RF Exposure

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an

uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

LS10 – Data Sheet IC regulatory conformance  

IC: 20276-LS10  

This device complies with CAN ICES-003 (B)/NMB-003(B).This device contains licence-exempt  transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s  licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  

(1) This device may not cause interference.

(2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

RF Exposure

This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an

uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

LS10 – Data Sheet ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER (OEM) NOTES  

OEM must certify the final end product to comply with unintentional radiators (FCC Sections 07  and 15.109) before declaring compliance of the final product to Part 15 of the FCC rules and  regulations. Integration into devices that are directly or indirectly connected to AC lines must  add with Class II Permissive Change.

The OEM must comply with the FCC labeling requirements. If the module’s label is not visible when  installed, then an additional permanent label must be applied on the outside of the finished product  which states: “Contains transmitter module FCC ID: 2ADBM-LS10”. Additionally, the following  statement should be included on the label and in the final product’s user manual: “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 interferences, and

(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.”

The module is limited to installation in mobile or fixed applications. Separate approval is required for  all other operating configurations, including portable configuration with respect to Part 2.1093 and  different antenna configurations.  

A module or modules can only be used without additional authorizations if they have been tested and  granted under the same intended end-use operational conditions, including  simultaneous transmission operations. When they have not been tested and granted in this  manner, additional testing and/or FCC application filing may be required. The most straightforward  approach to address additional testing conditions is to have the grantee responsible for the  certification of at least one of the modules submit a permissive change application. When having a  module grantee file a permissive change is not practical or feasible, the following guidance provides  some additional options for host manufacturers. Integrations using modules where additional  testing and/or FCC application filing(s) may be required are: (A) a module used in devices  requiring additional RF exposure compliance information (e.g., MPE evaluation or SAR testing); (B)  limited and/or split modules not meeting all of the module requirements; and (C)  simultaneous transmissions for independent collocated transmitters not previously granted  together.

This Module is full modular approval, it is limited to OEM installation ONLY.

Integration into devices that are directly or indirectly connected to AC lines must add with Class  II Permissive Change. (OEM) Integrator has to assure compliance of the entire end product include  the integrated Module. Additional measurements (15B) and/or equipment authorizations  (e.g. Verification) may need to be addressed depending on co-location or simultaneous  transmission issues if applicable. (OEM) Integrator is reminded to assure that these installation  instructions will not be made available to the end user

LS10 – Data Sheet  IC labeling requirement for the final end product:

The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following “Contains IC: 20276-LS10”

The Host Marketing Name (HMN) must be indicated at any location on the exterior of the host  product or product packaging or product literature, which shall be available with the host product or  online.

Unauthorized modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

This radio transmitter [ lC: 20276-LS10] has been approved by Innovation, Science and Economic  Development Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below, with the maximum permissible  gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this list that have a gain greater than the maximum gain  indicated for any type listed are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
