3.5.2 Industry Canada Statement
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.
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.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed in 3.2 Module Integration Considerations – Antenna Systems, and having a maximum gain of 2 dBi. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 2dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.
L'opération est soumise aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) cet appareil ne peut pas provoquer d'interférences et (2) cet appareil doit accepter toute interférence, y compris les interférences qui peuvent causer un mauvais fonctionnement de l'appareil.
Pour réduire le risque d'interférence aux autres utilisateurs, le type d'antenne et son gain doivent être choisis de manière que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (PIRE) ne dépasse pascelle permise pour une communication réussie.
Cet appareil a été conçu pour fonctionner avec l'antenne (s) ci 3.2 Module Integration Considerations – Antenna Systems, et ayant un gain maximum de 2 dBi. Antennes pas inclus dans cette liste ou ayant un gain supérieur à 2dBi sont strictement interdits pour une utilisation avec cet appareil. L'impédance d'antenne requise est de 50 ohms.
3.5.3 Responsibilities to comply with FCC and Industry Canada Regulations
The TiWi Module has been certified for integration into products only by Leica Geosystems AG or Hexagon AB under the following conditions:
1. The antenna(s) must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is
maintained between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times.
2. The transmitter module must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However, the integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for certain configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC and Industry Canada authorizations are no longer considered valid and the FCC ID and IC Certification Number cannot be used on the final product. In

these circumstances, the integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC and Industry Canada authorization.
Le module de TIWI a été certifié pour l'intégration dans des produits uniquement par des intégrateurs Leica Geosystems AG ou Hexagon AB dans les conditions suivantes:
Tant que les deux conditions précitées sont réunies, les tests de transmetteurs supplémentaires ne seront pas tenus. Toutefois, l'intégrateur OEM est toujours responsable de tester leur produit final pour toutes les exigences de conformité supplémentaires requis avec ce module installé (par exemple, les émissions appareil numérique, les exigences de périphériques PC, etc.)
NOTE IMPORTANTE: Dans le cas où ces conditions ne peuvent être satisfaites (pour certaines configurations ou de co-implantation avec un autre émetteur), puis la FCC et Industrie autorisations Canada ne sont plus considérés comme valides et l'ID de la FCC et IC numéro de certification ne peut pas être utilisé sur la produit final. Dans ces circonstances, l'intégrateur OEM sera chargé de réévaluer le produit final (y compris l'émetteur) et l'obtention d'un distincte de la FCC et Industrie Canada l'autorisation.
3.5.4 End Product Labeling
The TIWI Module is labeled with its own FCC ID and IC Certification Number. If the FCC ID and IC Certification Number are 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. In that case, the final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
“Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: RFD-BTWCO”
“Contains Transmitter Module IC: 3177A-BTWCO”
or
“Contains FCC ID: RFD-BTWCO”
