NORTEK 2GIG-XCVR5e Transceiver Module
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Model 2GIG-XCVR5e Transceiver Module is designed to be used with the 2GIG security system control panel. The transceiver is a dual frequency device. It receives 345 MHz signals from the system sensors, and receives and transmits 900 MHz signals to and from the Image Sensor 3. To use a Image Sensor 3 with the 2GIG GC2e security system control panel, the 2GIG-XCVR5e Transceiver Module must be installed into the control panel. The control panel must also be running firmware Version 1.23 or greater to function with the transceiver and Image Sensor. Check the current version number of the firmware using the control panel’s toolbox feature. If the control panel needs a firmware update, contact 2GIG for details on obtaining a compatible control panel or to receive an over-the-air update through the control panel’s cell radio (if the panel is cell radio equipped).

Fcc Rules
Radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need in portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be observed. • For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
- A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
- Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.
- Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.
- A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
This device complies with FCC Part 15 and Canada Rules and Regulations. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause harmful interference and
- this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
RF Exposure Considerations
This modular complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. RF Exposure This device is only authorized for use in a mobile application. At least 20 cm of separation distance between the module and the user’s body must be maintained at all times. A label must be affixed to the outside of final commercial product with the following statements: This device contains FCC ID: EF400207 This device contains IC ID: 1078A-00207 Consistent with §2.909(a), the following text must be included within the user’s manual or operator instruction guide for the final commercial product. This modular complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This device is only authorized for use in a mobile application. At least 20 cm of separation distance between the module and the user’s body must be maintained at all times. The final host/module combination may also need to be evaluated against the FCC Part 15B criteria for unintentional radiators in order to be properly authorized for operation as a Part 15 digital device. The FCC Part 15 Statement shall be included in the user manual of final commercial product if applicable. CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment
