Block Diagram:
Specific operational conditions:
Applicable FCC rules: CFR 47 Part 15, Subpart C (15.247)
Applicable ISED rules: RSS-247
Limited module considerations: The module is limited to OEM installation ONLY.
The OEM integrator is responsible for ensuring that the end-user has no manual
instruction to remove or install the module.
The final host product must be submitted to SteamIQ for confirmation that the
host+module complies with the regulations of the USA (FCC) and Canada (ISED).
Antennas:
The Lora module is for use with external antennas ONLY.
The antenna is Monopole Antenna and the maximum gain is 1.04 dB.
Trace antenna design: not applicable
This module has been approved by FCC to operate with the antenna types with
the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this
list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are
strictly prohibited for use with this device. Specifically, if an antenna
other than the model documented in the filing is used, a Class 2 Permissive
Change must be filed with the FCC.
Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer
The modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts
listed on the grant, and 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 additional Part 15 Subpart B
compliance testing is required for the final host product with the modular
transmitter installed.
FCC Regulatory Statements for this module
FCC Statements
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.
Note: This product 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 product generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product 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:
- Reorient or relocate the 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.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
RF Exposure considerations:
This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance 20cm
between the radiator and your body.
Label considerations:
When the FCC ID is not visible when after installation 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 be
used as wording: “Contains transmitter module FCC ID: 2AVL60001101” or
“Contains FCC ID: 2AVL60001101”.
ISED Regulatory Statements for this module
ISED (Canada) Statements
This device contains license-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply
with Innovation, Science, and Economic
Development Canada’s license-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
- This device may not cause interference.
- This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Under ISED Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using
an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter
by ISED Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the
antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for
successful communication.
When the Industry Canada certification 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 be used with the wording ”Contains transmitter
module IC: 26726-0001101” or “Contains IC: 267260001101”.
