Instruction of NARF Module
1. General Information
The individual RF module named as NARF, FCC ID: 2AGBW NARF and IC: 20812 NARF, is supplied by 15 24V DC. The transmitter has its own RF shielding. The operation temperature range is 40°C 85°C. This module using only one kind of antennas with maximum gain is 2 dBi. Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The picture of module is showed below asPicture 1. The assembly in the end product is showed below as Picture 2.
Note: This RF module is assembled in Signify products only.

2.Information on Test Modes and Additional Testing Requirements
a.The modular transmitter has been fully tested by the module grantee on the required number of channels, modulation types, and modes, and it’s complied with FCC part 15.247. It should not be necessary for the host installer to re test all the available transmitter modes or settings. It is recommended that the host product manufacturer, installing the modular transmitter, perform some investigative measurements to confirm that the resulting composite systemdoesnotexceedthespuriousemissionslimitsorbandedgelimits(e.g.,wherea different antenna may be causing additionalemissions).
b.The testing should check for emissions that may occur due to the intermixing of emissions with the other transmitters, digital circuitry, or due to physical properties of the host product (enclosure). This investigation is especially important when integrating multiple modular transmitters where the certification is based on testing each of them in a stand alone configuration. It is important to note that host product manufacturers shouldnotassumethatbecausethemodulartransmitteriscertifiedthattheydonot have any responsibility for final product compliance.
c.If the investigation indicates a compliance concern the host product manufacturer is obligatedtomitigatetheissue.Hostproductsusingamodulartransmitteraresubjectto all the applicable individual technical rules as well as to the general conditions of operation in Sections 15.5, 15.15, and 15.29 to not cause interference. The operator of the host product will be obligated to stop operating the device until the interference has beencorrected.
