Regulatory Information

Human Exposure Compliance Statement

Pursuant to 47 CFR § 24.52 of the FCC Rules and Regulations, personal communications services (PCS) equipment is subject to the radio frequency radiation exposure requirements specified in § 1.1307(b), § 2.1091 and § 2.1093, as appropriate.

TechnoCom Corp. certifies that it has determined that the LMU-4000 complies with the RF hazard requirements applicable to broadband PCS equipment operating under the authority of 47 CFR Part 24, Subpart E of the FCC Rules and Regulations. This determination is dependent upon installation, operation and use of the equipment in accordance with all instructions provided.

The LMU-4000 is designed for and intended to be used in fixed and mobile applications. "Fixed" means that the device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved to another location. "Mobile" means that the device is designed to be used in other than fixed locations and generally in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 cm is normally maintained between the transmitter's antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons. The LMU-4000is not designed for or intended to be used in portable applications (within 20 cm of the body of the user) and such uses are strictly prohibited.

To ensure that the LMU-4000 complies with current FCC regulations limiting both maximum RF output power and human exposure to radio frequency radiation, a separation distance of at least 20 cm must be maintained between the unit's antenna and the body of the user and any nearby persons at all times and in all applications and uses. Additionally, in mobile applications, maximum antenna gain must not exceed 3 dBi.

About TechnoCom

TechnoCom is a privately held company, founded in 1995 and a leading-edge provider of solutions to enable wireless location services and assure their ongoing performance. We offer location support, mobile resource management and advanced telematics solutions combined with related professional services to wireless operators, service providers, system integrators and government agencies. These solutions enable customers to manage their wireless location infrastructures and services, reduce operating and capital costs, deliver superior levels of service, increase productivity and rapidly deploy new revenue-generating services. In both 2003 and 2004, TechnoCom was named by Deloitte & Touche as one of the “Technology Fast 50” in the Los Angeles area, giving recognition to the fact we are an able competitor in the high technology sector — despite the challenges of a rapidly evolving industry and marketplace.

About the TechnoCom Location Messaging Unit-4000™ (LMU-4000™)

The TechnoCom Location and Messaging Unit-4000™ (LMU-4000™) is a mobile device that resides primarily in commercial or government vehicles. The LMU-4000 is a single box enclosure incorporating a processor, a GPS receiver, a wireless data modem, and a vehicle-rated power supply. The LMU-4000 also supports inputs and outputs to monitor and react to the vehicular environment and/or driver actions.

The LMU-4000 collects, stores and transmits vehicular and location data over a designated wireless network including iDEN™, CDMA2000 1x, GPRS, 900 MHz wireless, and others via IP/UDP. Vehicular and location data are transmitted to a customized software application that has been designed to receive, acknowledge, process, store, and respond to this data.

Unit location and vehicular information is sent at pre-determined intervals, on demand, or when pre-programmed vehicular conditions are met. Transmission of data are sent immediately when in wireless network coverage and stored for later transmission when out of the wireless coverage area. SMS messaging can be used as an alternative or redundant communication backup.

The LMU-4000 is designed to support a variety of custom fleet applications starting with basic automatic vehicle location and including applications requiring more sophisticated features such as geo-fencing, speed and mileage monitoring, third party security monitoring, dynamic reporting routines, and an array of exception alerts.

LMU-4000s are sold exclusively to authorized systems integrators, software firms, and service providers who have developed their offering around the capabilities of the LMU-4000. Customers are trained by TechnoCom to integrate the mobile device with their system and to assist in support and maintenance of the devices.

Installations of LMU-4000s are performed by TechnoCom customers or contracted installers. Typical installations include hook-up to power, ignition, and ground. LMU-4000s and the corresponding wiring are almost always hidden from view and general access. Placement of the units is usually under dashboards, in trunks or in compartments.

LMU-4000 Hardware Installation Guide 1.0

Section 1 — System Overview

Overview

The entire purpose behind a fleet management system is to be able to remotely contact a vehicle, determine its location or status, and do something meaningful with that information. This could include displaying the vehicle location on a map, performing an address look-up, providing real-time driving directions, updating the vehicles ETA, monitoring vehicle and driver status or dispatching the vehicle to its next pick up.

These functions, of course, are completely dependant on the capabilities of the vehicle management application. The role of the TechnoCom LMU-4000 is to deliver the location information when and where it is needed.

A typical fleet management system based on a TechnoCom device includes the following components:

 Backend mapping and reporting software which typically includes mapping and

fleet reporting functions

 LMU Manager™

 An LM Direct™ communications server

 A wireless data network

 An LMU-4000

 Mobile Data Terminal (MDT)

 In-vehicle laptop (LMU Status™)

LMU-4000

Backend Software

Backend software is a customer provided software application. Regardless of its purpose one of its primary functions is to parse and present data obtained from the LM Direct server. This allows the application to do any of the following:

 Display location data base on reports received from the LMU-4000 in a variety of

formats.

 Present historic information received from the LMU-4000 typically in a

report/chart style format

 Request location updates from one or more LMU-4000s

 Update and change the configuration of one or more LMU-4000s

LMU Manager

LMU Manager is the primary support and configuration tool in the TechnoCom system. It allows access to almost every feature available to the LMU-4000. Unlike the backend software, it has the option of talking directly to an LMU-4000 or making a request forwarded by the LM Direct server.

LMU-4000 Hardware Installation Guide 1.0

For further details on using LMU Manager, please refer to the LMU Manager Users Guide.

LM Direct Server

LM Direct is a message interface specification detailing the various messages and their contents the LMU-4000 is capable of sending and receiving. This interface allows System Integrators to communicate directly with LMU-4000’s.

Sample code is available to system integrators upon request to aid in the development of an LM Direct Server.

Wireless Data Network

The Wireless Data Network provides the information bridge between the LM Direct server and the LMU-4000s. Wireless data networks can take a variety of forms, such as cellular networks, satellite systems or local area networks. At this point in time, the networks available to the LMU-4000 are:

 iDEN™

 GPRS

 CDMA2000 1x

LMU-4000

The LMU-4000 is responsible for delivering the location and status information when and where it is needed. Data requests can come from any of the following sources:

 PEG™ script within the LMU-4000

 A location or status request from the LM Direct server

 A location or status request from LMU Manager

 A request made from a host device such as a laptop, PDA or MDT

Host Device – Laptop/PDA or MDT

In some cases, it is necessary to run an application in the vehicle while it is being tracked by the backend software. Such examples could include instant messaging between vehicles or a central office, in-vehicle mapping or driving directions, email or database access. In most of these cases you will be using the LMU-4000 as a wireless modem as well as a vehicle-location device.
