RF Module User Manual

Follow the instructions below when integrating the module into the final product in order to
make sure the final product complies with FCC requirements.

1. Use the module with the approved antennae only: use either a wire antenna or Antenna
Factor’s p/n ANT-916-CW-RH, or Antenna Factor’s p/n ANT-900-MHW-RPS.

2. The power output at the RF connector should not exceed 250mW for the approved 0dB
gain antennae and it should not exceed 125mW for the 3db antenna – the antennae
listed above.

3. The voltage supply to the power amplifier should not exceed 3.6V +/- 0.2V.

4. Supply voltage to the VCC and VBAT pins should not exceed 3.6V +/- 0.2V.

5. All I/O pins are CMOS type. Current source/sink is 20mA max.

6. Connectors descriptions:

a. J1 – used for antenna connection.
b. J4 – used for mechanically supporting the module to the board with which it

interfaces.

c. J2 – used for in circuit programming of the microprocessor using Microchip’s ICD2 or

equivalent.

d. J1 – used for interfacing the module to the outside circuitry. For further pin

functionality, refer to the schematic drawing and the data sheet of the
microprocessor.

RF Module User Manual

Responsibility to the FCC Rules and Regulations

WARNING! This module is to be installed only in Heat Timer Corporation’s end products by Heat Timer Trained
Personnel, and shall not be offered to 3rd party OEM integrators or the general public.

The RF Module has been certified per FCC Part 15 rules for integration into products without further testing or
certification.

The RF Module is labeled with its own FCC ID Number. 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:

“Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: QPI-RFMODULE01”

or

“Contains FCC ID: QPI-RFMODULE01”

The RF Module must only use the approved antenna, which has been certified with this module.

The final product configuration must be tested to comply with Unintentional Radiator Limits before declaring FCC
compliance per Part 15 of the FCC rules.

Industry Canada Statement

The term "IC" before the certification / registration number only signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications
were met.

Section 5.5 of RSS-210

This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain
of [3] dB. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations
of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is [ 50] ohms."

Section 5.11 of RSS-210

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication.

The module is to be installed only in Heat Timer Corporation’s end products by Heat Timer Trained Personnel, and will not
be provided to 3rd party OEM integrators.

To comply with FCC’s RF exposure limits for general population/uncontrolled exposure, the antenna(s) used for this
transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons.

The antenna used for this module must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
