2.8
Please notice that if the FCC identification number is 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. This exterior label can use wording such as “Contains FCC ID:
2AC23-WKCT15”; any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be
used.
2.9
Testing of the host product with all the transmitters installed – referred to
as the composite investigation test- is recommended, to verify that the host
product meets all the applicable FCC rules. The radio spectrum is to be
investigated with all the transmitters in the final host product functioning
to determine that no emissions exceed the highest limit permitted for any one
individual transmitter as required by Section 2.947(f). The host manufacturer
is responsible to ensure that when their product operates as intended it does
not have any emissions present that are out of compliance that were not
present when the transmitters were tested individually.
If the modular transmitter has been fully tested by the module grantee on the
required number of channels, modulation types, and modes, 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 system does not exceed the spurious
emissions limits or band edge limits (e.g., where a different antenna may be
causing additional emissions).
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.
2.10
Any company of the host device which install this modular should perform the
test of radiated & condicted emission and spurious emission etc. according to
FCC Part 15C: 15.247 and 15.209 & 15.207, part 15 E 15.407,15B class B
requirement, only if the test result comply with FCC part 15C: 15.247 and
15.209 & 15.207, part 15 E 15.407,15B class B requirement.
Then the host can be sold legally.
The host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC
rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of
certification. If the grantee markets their product as being Part 15 Subpart B
compliant (when it also contains unintentional-radiator digital circuity),
then the grantee shall provide a notice stating that the final host product
still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular
transmitter installed.
2.11
The host manufacture is recommended to use D04 Module Integration Guide
recommending as “best practice” RF design engineering testing and evaluation
in case non-linear interactions generate additional non-compliant limits due
to module placement to host components or properties.
2.12
This module is stand-alone modular. If the end product will involve the
Multiple simultaneously transmitting condition or different operational
conditions for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, host manufacturer
have to consult with module manufacturer for the installation method in end
system.
