Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

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. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A 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 radiofrequency 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 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 this equipment.This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with anyother antenna or transmitter.

Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 22cm between the radiator & your body.

Professional installation instruction

1. Installation personal

This product is designed for specific application and needs to be installed by a qualified personal who has RF and related rule knowledge. The general user shall not attempt to install or change thesetting.

2. Installation location

[鍵入文字]

The product shall be installed at a location where the radiating antenna can be kept

22cm from nearby person in normal operation condition to meet regulatory RF

exposure requirement.

3. External antenna

Use only the antennas which have been approved by the applicant. The non-approved antenna(s) may produce unwanted spurious or excessive RF transmitting power which may lead to the violation of FCC limit and is prohibited.

4. Installation procedure

Please refer to user’s manual for the detail.

5. Warning

Please carefully select the installation position and make sure that the final output power does not exceed the limit set force in relevant rules. The violation of the rule could lead to serious federal penalty.

F740 User Guide

If user wants F740 to receive data from other device through GPIO, please connect 24V power source to PIN19 or PIN20 and connect the device output line to Pin 1~ Pin8.

The development of programming of receiving data from GPIO could reference the document “FAVITE F740 GPIO Programming Guide_DotNet CSharp” for read data from GPIO with application method.

If user wants F740 to transmit data to other device though GPIO, please connect to Pin 9~ Pin 16.

The programming of transmitting data to other device (like light stack) could reference the document “FAVITE F740 GPIO Programming Guide_DotNet CSharp” for write data from GPIO with application method. The device should connect to independent power source.

Antenna Panel

The antenna panel is containing four coax antenna connector ports, which

isTNCconnector, as shown below. These are TNC connectors.

CAUTION: Reader antennas should be positioned so that personnel in the area for prolonged periods may safely remain at least 23 cm (9 in) in an uncontrolled environment from the antenna’s surface. See FCC OET Bulletin 56 “Hazards of radio frequency and electromagnetic fields” and Bulletin 65 “Human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields.”

2.3 Demonstration Software Guide

Please refer to the document “FAVITE API Programming Guide_DotNet CSharp”, “FAVITE SDK Getting Started Guide CSharp”, “FAVITE Saturn Demo API User Guide” and “F740 GPIO Programming Guide_DotNet CSharp”.
