FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement (USA)

The FCC regards RFID equipment as low-power transmitting devices and, therefore, does not require users of RFID devices to obtain a license to operate them.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

  • Reorientation or relocation of receiving antenna
  • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
  • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

Any changes or modifications to the equipment that are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority granted under FCC Rules to operate this equipment. This equipment complies with the FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and all persons during normal operation. The following sentence has to be displayed on the outside of the device in which the transmitter module is installed: “Contains FCC ID: 2ACXQ- CL4NXPLUS-MR-1”
ISO/IEC 18000 – 3 Mode 2 (Air Interface at 13.56 MHz) Compliance
MR-1 module fully comply with the ISO/IEC18000 Part 3 Mode 2(Information technology – Radio frequency identification for item management. Part 3: Parameters for air interface communications at 13.56MHz) published in August, 2004.

Overview

The MR-1 is the smallest and simplest of Magellan’s reader modules. It is intended for Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) applications where it is typically embedded in an RFID enabled product.
Examples include printers, hand held readers, data capture terminals, low cost desktop readers, identification and access controls.
