Butlr Technologies B-WM-01 Wireless Module

Product Description

Butlr wireless module offers a small space envelope and ultra-low power consumption wireless transmission functionality.
The module comes with 2 orderable models: an onboard ceramic antenna and an external antenna with an SMA connector. The onboard antenna model is small in size and can be used for IOT sensing in the large distribution network. The external antenna model offers flexible connection to a wide range of 2.4GHz antennas, enabling the product in long-range transmission scenarios.
The design of the wireless module is simple. The module comes with a shield for signal isolation and protection. The footprint of the module is designed to be stamp-hole (mouse bit) type, so it’s easy to do both SMT and through- hole soldering.

Pin definition

The module has 45 pins in total (including power and ground supplies). Detailed pin definition is shown in following picture

RF exposure considerations

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. If the device built into a host as a portable usage, the additional RF exposure evaluation may be required as specified by§2.1093. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator& your body.
Antennas

  • The module  of B-WM-01-A has one chip antenna and the antenna gain is 1.0dBi.
  • The module of B-WM-01-B has one dipole antenna and the antenna gain is 2.0dBi.
  • The module of B-WM-01-C has one chip antenna and the antenna gain is 1.7dBi.

Label and compliance information
When the module is installed in the host device, the FCC ID label must be visible through a window on the final device or it must be visible when an access panel, door or cover is easily re‐moved. If not, a second label must be placed on the outside of the final device that contains the following text:
“Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID:2AZPC-B-WM-01” or “Contains FCC ID:2AZPC-B-WM-01”. The FCC ID can be used only when all FCC ID compliance requirements are met.

Information on test modes and additional testing requirements

  1. 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).
  2. 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. It is important to note that host product manufacturers should not assume that because the modular transmitter is certified that they do not have any responsibility for final product compliance. c) If the investigation indicates a compliance concern the host product manufacturer is obligated to mitigate the issue. Host products using a modular transmitter are subject to all the applicable individual technical rules as well as to the general conditions of operation in Sections 15.5, 15.15, and 15.29 to not cause interference. The operator of the host product will be obligated to stop operating the device until the interference has been corrected.

Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer
The final host/module combination need to be evaluated against the FCC Part 15B criteria for unintentional radiators in order to be properly authorized for operation as a Part15 digital device. The host integrator installing this module into their product must ensure that the final composite product complies with the FCC requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the FCC rules, including the transmitter operation and should refer to the guidance in KDB 996369. For host products with certified modular transmitters, the frequency range of investigation of the composite system is specified by rule in Sections 15.33(a)(1) through (a)(3), or the range applicable to the digital device, as shown in Section 15.33(b)(1), whichever is the higher frequency range of investigation. When testing the host product, all the transmitters must be operating. The transmitters can be enabled by using publicly available drivers and turned on, so the transmitters are active. In certain conditions, it might be appropriate to use a technology-specific call box (test set) where accessory devices or drivers are not available. When testing for emissions from the unintentional radiator, the transmitter shall be placed in the receive mode or idle mode, if possible. If receive mode only is not possible then, the radio shall be passive (preferred) and/or active scanning. In these cases, this would need to enable activity on the communication BUS (i.e., PCIe, SDIO, USB) to ensure the unintentional radiator circuitry is enabled. Testing laboratories may need to add attenuation or filters depending on the signal strength of any active beacons (if applicable) from the enabled radio(s). See ANSI C63.4, ANSI C63.10 and ANSI C63.26 for further general testing details.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions

  1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
  2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
    Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
