ATHENA GTX 471-0008-01 Wireless Vital Signs Monitor

Product Information

The product is the Athena-GTX, Inc. Model 471-0008-01. It is a Wi-Fi RF Module with the FCC ID 2AVRK-XBS6BTH. The module is designed for a specific singular modular use configuration.
This addendum provides updated information and replaces the FCC publication 996369 related information found in the Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module User Guide Rev W, unless otherwise stated.
The module conforms to FCC Part 15.247 rules and operates on a frequency of 2.4 GHz.

Product Usage Instructions

Ensure that the Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module (Model 471-0008-01) is properly integrated with the Host Device.
Before using the module, refer to the FCC-approved antennas (2.4 GHz) listed in section 2.7 of this addendum.
The Wi-Fi module will communicate (TX/RX) using a frequency of 2.4 GHz at the nominal power setting of 16 dBM.
Take note of the duty cycle limitations when using the module to ensure compliance with FCC regulations.
For additional information and detailed instructions on using the Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module, refer to the Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module User Guide Rev W or a later version.

Athena-GTX, Inc. addendum

Model 471-0008-01, FCC ID: 2AVRK-XBS6BTH, is configured in a specific singular modular use configuration, this addendum is created to support changes.
Information in this addendum is designed to replace FCC publication 996369 related information
Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module User Guide Rev W, except where specifically stated.
Reference Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module User Guide Rev W or greater for additional user guide information.

In publication 996369 section D03, the FCC requires information concerning a module to be presented by OEM manufacturers. This section assists in answering or fulfilling these requirements.

General

No requirements are associated with this section.

List of applicable FCC rules

This module conforms to FCC Part 15.247.

Summarize the specific operational use conditions

For the Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module, see FCC-approved antennas (2.4 GHz) identified in section 2.7 of this addendum.
Once integrated with the Host Device, the Wi-Fi module will communicate (TX/RX) using 2.4 GHz at the nominal power setting (16 dBM), duty cycle <1% while simultaneously co-located with two (2) additional BLE modules that communicate (TX/RX) with accessory devices also utilizing a duty cycle <1%. Modules will be in portable use, <20 cm proximity to the user’s body.
Users are not permitted to modify the antenna or alter pre-defined Host or Module configuration settings, outside of connecting and disconnecting other devices.
BLE modules authorized to be used in co-location with Model 471-0008-01 Wi-Fi Module identified above are two (2) BLE radios FCC IDs: 2AVRK-BMD301.

Limited module procedures

Not applicable.

Trace antenna designs

Not applicable.

RF exposure considerations

See conditions in Section 2.3 above that allow for use <20cm proximity to the user’s body and simultaneous transmission with additional BLE radios.

Antennas

Only the P/N: A24-QI monopole (Integrated Whip) antenna is approved to be used for this module.

Label and compliance information

A physical label stating “Contains FCC ID: 2AVRK- XBS6BTH”, shall be used on the outside of the enclosure of the host product.

Information on test modes and additional testing requirements

Devices shall be reviewed under configured max operational settings (standard use) for SAR and spurious Radiated Emissions. Unintentional Radiators are also required for review, however, due to setting requirements (RF modules disabled), only Athena GTX
Inc. is permitted to configure a test unit for this mode.
When testing for all, except for Unintentional Radiators, Wi-Fi must be tested after a connection with a partnering device is established and information is transmitted.
Additionally, BLE shall be co-located, as such, it needs to be paired with a compatible device to allow RF traffic.
Antenna power, duty cycle, and transmission rate cannot be altered from approved settings, see RF Exposure report for technical information.

Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer

Not applicable, see this section in the original Digi XBee Wi-Fi RF Module User Guide Rev W or greater.
