4.1. DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY 47 CFR § 2.1077 COMPLIANCE INFORMATION
We, Industrea Mining Technology Pty Ltd, T/A Digital Mining Technology, at 3 Co-Wyn Close, Fountaindale, NSW, 2258, Australia declare under our sole responsibility the products:

Trade Name: Digital Mining Technology
Model Number: ASMB0935
Product Name Mini RF UWB Module DW3000
FCC ID: YIY-ASMB0935
Responsible Party: Digital Mining
2901 East Lake Road Erie, PA, 16531 814-875-2234

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.

4.2. MODULE STATEMENT, LABELLING & USER INSTRUCTIONS
The ASMB0935 has single module approval and comply with FCC Part 15 and Canada Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada(ISED) RSS-210 and RSS-Gen. Single-modular transmitter approval is defined as a complete RF transmission subassembly, designed to be incorporated into another device, that must demonstrate compliance with FCC/IC rules and policies independent of any host. A transmitter with a modular grant can be installed in different end-use products (referred to as a host, host product, or host device) by the grantee or other equipment manufacturer, then the host product may not require additional testing or equipment authorization for the transmitter function provided by that module.
The user must comply with all of the instructions provided by the Grantee, which indicate installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance. The host product itself is required to comply with all other applicable FCC/IC equipment authorizations regulations, requirements and equipment functions that are not associated with the transmitter module portion. For example, compliance must be demonstrated: to regulations for other transmitter components within a host product; to requirements for unintentional radiators(Part 15 Subpart B, ICES-003), such as digital devices, computer peripherals, radio receivers, etc.; and to additional authorization requirements for the non-transmitter functions on the transmitter module (i.e., Suppliers Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) or certification) as appropriate.

LABELING AND USER INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS:
The ASMB0935 module has been labelled with its own FCC/IC ID number, and if the FCC/IC ID number is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the finished product into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wordings as follows:
Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: YIY-ASMB0935 or Contains FCC ID: YIY-ASMB0935
Contains Transmitter Module IC: 8903A-ASMB0935 or Contains IC: 8903A-ASMB0935

PROHIBITION:

  • Operation on board an aircraft or a satellite is prohibited.
  • Module shall not be employed for the operation of toys.
  • Except for operation onboard a ship or a terrestrial transportation vehicle, the use of a fixed outdoor infrastructure is prohibited. A fixed infrastructure includes antennas mounted on outdoor structures, e.g., antennas mounted on the outside of a building or on a telephone pole.

4.3. FCC INTERFERENCE STATEMENT FOR CLASS B DEVICES 

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.

A shielded type Ethernet cord is required to meet FCC Class B emission limits and prevent interference to the nearby radio and television reception.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operate in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
The antenna is considered an integral system component. Use of any antenna other than those specified in the installation manual or supplied with the product may void the product’s compliance.
4.4. FCC RADIATION EXPOSURE STATEMENT

wabtech DW3000 Mini RF UWB Module - icon2 To comply with FCC RF exposure limits for general population / uncontrolled exposure, the antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
wabtech DW3000 Mini RF UWB Module - icon2 To comply with FCC RF exposure limits for general population / uncontrolled exposure, the antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
4.5. INDUSTRY CANADA COMPLIANT
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment
4.5.1. CONCERNING RADIO TRANSMITTERS
This device complies with Industry Canada’s licence-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

  1. This device may not cause interference; and
  2.  This device must accept any interference, including that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

4.5.2. INDUSTRY CANADA – RADIATION EXPOSURE STATEMENT
wabtech DW3000 Mini RF UWB Module - icon2 To comply with Industry Canada RF exposure limits for general population / uncontrolled exposure, the antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
4.6. AUSTRALIAN RADIO COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT – RADIATION EXPOSURE STATEMENT
The equipment complies with the Radiocommunications Equipment (General) Rules 2021 + Amendment Rules 2023 (No. 1), Electromagnetic Radiation – Human Exposure Standard RPS-1 for General Public Exposure, Non-Aware User, for a Compliance Level 2 Radiocommunications Equipment, when the minimum safety distance is adhered to, and shall bear the RCM.
