Owner's Manual

NOTICE

The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which integrates this module. The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as shown in User manual.

UNLICENSED RADIATOR / LICENSE-EXEMPT RADIATOR

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.

You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

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

LIST OF APPLICABLE FCC RULES

This module has been tested and found to comply with the following requirements for Modular Approval.

• 47 CFR Part 15 Subpart C Intentional Radiators

SUMMARIZE THE SPECIFIC OPERATIONAL USE CONDITIONS

The host device’s end-user manual must include all applicable regulatory notices and

RF EXPOSURE CONSIDERATIONS

1. This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
2. For portable operation, this device has been tested and meets RF exposure guidelines. When used with an accessory that contains metal may not ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.
   • a. For the host product integrated with this modular transmitter as a stand-alone configuration, the maximum conducted power from the original grant shall be retained in order to meet SAR exemption requirements.
   • b. For configuration with multiple transmitters in the same host, routine evaluation or SAR testing for the simultaneous transmission of the co-located transmitters according to KDB 447498 is required. The potable host product shall be evaluated for ensuring to continue compliance FCC rule part 2.1093 & part 1.1310 by. The additional guidance for the portable host products is provided in KDB Publication 996369 D02 and D04.
   • c. For the host product is not installed according to this guide, the module certification will be invalid, and a new grant certification will be required for the host product.

ANTENNAS
This radio transmitter has been approved by Federal Communications Commission and 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.

LABEL AND COMPLIANCE INFORMATION (2.8)

The host device integrating this module must be labeled with the following regulatory identifiers to ensure compliance with regulations, these labels must be clearly visible on the exterior of the host device’s enclosure as required by applicable regulatory guidelines.

Contains FCC ID: SH6AN54LV
Contains IC: 8017A-AN54LV

INFORMATION ON TEST MODES AND ADDITIONAL TESTING REQUIREMENTS

The module can be configured to continuously transmit on a specific frequency with a fixed modulation pattern. This allows evaluation of radiated emissions and spurious emissions in a controlled condition.

These test modes are intended for compliance testing only and must not be enabled during normal operation of the final product.

For more detailed information, please contact the grantee for assistance with test modes needed for module/host compliance test requirements.

ADDITIONAL TESTING, PART 15 SUBPART B DISCLAIMER

The modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts (i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant, and that the host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification.

The final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed.

NOTE EMI CONSIDERATIONS

Note that a host manufacture is recommended to use KDB996369 D04 Module Integration Guide recommending as “best practice” RF design engineering testing and evaluation in case non-linear interactions generate additional non-compliant limits due to module placement to host components or properties. For standalone mode, reference the guidance in KDB996369 D04 Module Integration Guide and for simultaneous mode; see KDB996369 D02 Module Q&A Question 12, which permits the host manufacturer to confirm compliance.

HOW TO MAKE CHANGES

You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Only Grantees are permitted to make permissive changes, if the module will be used differently than granted conditions, please contact us to ensure modifications will not affect compliance.
