 Technical Information Manual 

36 

Product Manuals 

The user manual for the end product must include the following information in a prominent location: 

Comply with FCC’s RF radiation exposure requirements, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be 
installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained between the radiator (antenna) 
& user’s/nearby people’s body at all times and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with 
any other antenna or transmitter 

 

US Requirements 

The finished product manual must contain the following statement: 

WARNING: The Federal Communications Commission warns that changes or modifications of the radio 
module  within  this  device  not  expressly  approved  by  CAEN  RFID,  could  void  the  user’s  authority  to 
operate the equipment. 

In  the  case  where  an  OEM  seeks  class  B  (residential)  limits  for  the  host  product,  the  finished  product 
manual must contain the following statement: 

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 instructions, 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: 

 

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. 

In the case where an OEM seeks the lesser category of a Class A digital device for  their finished product, 
the following statement must be included in the manual of the finished product: 

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, 
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against 
harmful  interference  when  the  equipment  is  operated  in  a  commercial  environment.  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.  Operation  of  this 
equipment  in  a  residential  area  is  likely  to  cause  harmful  interference  in  which  case  the  user  will  be 
required to correct the interference at his expense. 

 

Antenna Requirements 

The  Hadron

mini 

R1271C  is  compatible  with  many  varieties  of  antennas,  but  for  purposes  of  CAEN  RFID’s 

modular certification with FCC, only one antenna was tested. Hadron

mini 

R1271C users can have their own 

antenna and Hadron

mini 

R1271C systems certified with FCC. 

In order to operate the Hadron

mini 

R1271C under FCC ID: UVECAENRFID031, the OEM must strictly follow 

these antenna guidelines: 

 

The OEM may operate only with the following antenna or antennas of the same type with maximum 
gain as shown: 

 

Laird  Technologies Model S9028PCR, circularly-polarized patch antenna with 6  dBi linear far 
field gain
