Sensonix DX80 Appendix to manual

DX80 User’s Guide OEM Module

Appendix A: Agency Certifications

FCC Certification

The DX80 Module complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and regulations. Compliance with labeling requirements, FCC
notices and antenna regulations is required.

Labeling Requirements

Compliance requires the following be stated on the device and within its operation manual:

FCC ID: TGUDX80 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.

Label Warning WARNING The Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) must ensure that FCC labeling requirements are
met. This includes a clearly visible label on the outside of the final product enclosure that displays the contents shown in
the figure below.

Contains FCC ID: TGUDX80
The enclosed 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.

FCC Notices

Adherence to the following is required:
IMPORTANT: The DX80 Modules have been certified by the FCC for use with other products without any further
certification (as per FCC section 2.1091). Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
IMPORTANT: OEMs must test their final product to comply with unintentional radiators (FCC section 15.107 and 15.109)
before declaring compliance of their final product to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
IMPORTANT: The DX80 Modules have been certified for fixed base station and mobile applications. If modules will be
used for portable applications, the device must undergo SAR testing.

NOTE:

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 receiving module.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiving module is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Antenna Warning WARNING: This device has been tested with Reverse Polarity SMA connectors with the antennas
listed in Table 1 Appendix A. When integrated into OEM products, fixed antennas require installation preventing end-users
from replacing them with non-approved antennas. Antennas not listed in the tables must be tested to comply with FCC
Section 15.203 (unique antenna connectors) and Section 15.247 (emissions). A warning statement must appear iin the
final product User Manual warning users to maintain the specified minimum separation distance from the antenna element
to nearby persons.

FCC-Approved Antennas

Fixed Base Station and Mobile Applications

DX80 Modules are pre-FCC approved for use in fixed base station and mobile applications. When the antenna is mounted
at least 20 cm (8”) from nearby persons, the application is considered a mobile application.

Portable Applications and SAR Testing

When the antenna is mounted closer than 20 cm to nearby persons, then the application is considered “portable” and
requires an additional test be performed on the final product. This test is called the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing
and measures the emissions from the module and how they affect the person.

RF Exposure

(This statement must be included as a CAUTION statement in OEM product manuals.)

WARNING: This equipment is approved only for mobile and base station transmitting devices. Antenna(s) used for this
transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co­located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

To fulfill FCC Certification requirements:

1. Integrator must ensure required text [Figure 1] is clearly placed on the outside of the final product.

2. DX80 Module may be used only with Approved Antennas that have been tested with this module.
