4 Interfaces
4.1 Tactile switches
The BOX860 has two tactile switches. The switches are mounted on two 350mm wires, signal and ground,
and creates a short to ground when pressed.
The switches are to be placed so that the end user can access them easily, for example in the paws of a
stuffed toy animal.
The PLAY switch is to be placed in the right paw of the toy.
The REC switch is to be placed in the left paw of the toy.
4.2 LED
The BOX860 has a single red LED. It is mounted on 350mm long wires to allow it to be placed at a visible
location on the toy.
4.3 Speaker
The BOX860 has a 2” speaker mounted inside the main enclosure.
4.4 Microphone
The microphone is mounted on the PCB.

6 APPLICATION INFORMATION
6.1 Power Supply
BOX860 should be powered by 4.5V by three alkaline AA/LR& size batteries. The 1.5V batteries are inserted
in series in the Battery Box to generate the 4.5V.
6.2 Power on/off
The BOX860 is turned on by sliding the switch in the Battery BOX to its “ON” position and turned off by
sliding the switch into its “OFF” position.
6.3 Configuration
When the BOX860 has no configuration it starts in Access Point mode with the SSID:TOY-xx-yy-zz where xxyy-zz are the last six digits of the MAC address. A Smart Phone with the corresponding APP can then
associate to the BOX860 and configure it to the network to use and “pair” itself with the BOX860.
6.4 Record
After configuration messages to the APP can be recorded by pressing the REC switch. When the REC switch
is pressed once the LED starts blinking and the message is recorded until the REC switch is pressed again or
the max message length is reached. Once the message is recorded it is sent to the server for forwarding to
the APP. In local mode the message is delivered to the APP directly.
6.5 Playback
When the BOX860 receives a message the LED will start to blink. To listen to the message the PLAY switch is
pressed. After a message has been recorded it can be listen to by pressing the PLAY switch.
6.6 Environmental statement
The BOX860 is designed and manufactured to comply with the RoHS and Green directives.
6.7 Markings on the BOX860
The label is imprinted with the FCC ID and serial number. See example below:

7.1 Regulatory
Table 7.3: Regulatory standards
7.1.1 FCC (United States of America)
This equipment complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and regulations.
To fulfill FCC Certification requirements, an OEM manufacturer must comply with the following regulations:
The modular transmitter is labeled with its own FCC ID number, and, if the FCC ID is not visible when the
module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed
must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the
following:

Confidential
Data Sheet 1451- Data Sheet BOX860
Example of label required for OEM product containing BOX860
NOTE: Only the built in antenna is approved for used with BOX860.
IMPORTANT: This equipment 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 (FCC 15.19).
IMPORTANT: This device is approved as a portable device with respect to RF exposure compliance and
when the BOX860 is installed in its final casing the BOX860 has to be placed so that the distance between
the antenna and any body part of the end user is always greater than 27mm.
IMPORTANT: Modifications not expressly approved by this company could void the user's authority to
operate this equipment (FCC section 15.21).
IMPORTANT: The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
IMPORTANT: The finished product is required to comply with all applicable FCC equipment authorizations
regulations, requirements and equipment functions not associated with the transmitter module portion.
Compliance for unintentional radiators (Part 15 Subpart B “Unintentional Radiators”), such as digital
devices, computer peripherals, radio receivers, etc. has to be demonstrated.
7.1.2 IC (Canada)
Equipment is subject to certification under the applicable RSSs, shall be permanently labeled on each item,
or as an inseparable combination. The label must contain the following information for full compliance:
IMPORTANT: This equipment for which a certificate has been issued is not considered certified if it is not
properly labeled. The information on the Canadian label can be combined with the manufacturer's other
labeling requirements
IMPORTANT: 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.
IMPORTANT: The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
IMPORTANT: 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 permitted for
successful communication.
Rev. A Dec-2015 Data Sheet 1451-BOX860 page 16 (18)
Confidential
Data Sheet 1451- Data Sheet BOX860
IMPORTANT: The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such
that it does not emit RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population. Consult Safety
Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada's website www.hc-sc.gc.ca/rpb.
7.1.3 ETSI (Europe)
The BOX860P module has been certified for use in European union countries according to ETSI EN 300 328
(Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum matters for equipment operating in the 2,4 GHz ISM
band using spread spectrum modulation techniques). This standard is harmonized within the European
Union and covering essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE-directive.
If the BOX860P module are incorporated into a product, the manufacturer must ensure compliance of the
final end-user product to the European harmonized EMC and low voltage/safety standards. A declaration of
conformity must be issued for the product including compliance references to these standards. Underlying
the declaration of conformity a technical construction file (TCF), including all relevant test reports and
technical documentation, must be issued and kept on file as described in Annex II of the R&TTE-directive.
Furthermore, the manufacturer must maintain a copy of the BOX860P module documentation and ensure
the final product does not exceed the specified power ratings, antenna specifications, and/or installation
requirements as specified in the user manual. If any of these specifications are exceeded in the final
product, a complete re-test must be made in order to comply with all relevant standards as basis for CEmarking. A submission to notified body must be used only if deviations from standards have been found or
if non-harmonized standards have been used.
