programming parameters. Professional installation adjustment is required for setting module
power and antenna gain to meet EIRP compliance for high gain antenna(s).
Final antenna installation and operating configurations of this transmitter including antenna gain
and cable loss must not exceed the EIRP of the configuration used for calculating MPE. Grantee
(Digi) must coordinate with OEM integrators to ensure the end-users and installers of products
operating with the modem are provided with operating instructions to satisfy RF exposure
requirements.
The FCC grant is valid only when the device is sold to OEM integrators. Integrators are instructed
to ensure the end-user has no manual instructions to remove, adjust or install the device.
FCC-approved Antennas
WARNING: This device has been tested with Reverse Polarity SMA connectors with the
antennas listed in the tables of this section. When integrated into OEM products, fixed
antennas require installation preventing end-users from replacing them with non-
approved antennas. Antennas not listed in the tables must be tested to comply with FCC
Section 15.203 (unique antenna connectors) and Section 15.247 (emissions).
Fixed Base Station and Mobile Applications
Digi RF modules are pre-FCC approved for use in fixed base station and mobile applications. When
the antenna is mounted at least 20cm (8") from nearby persons, the application is considered a
mobile application.
Portable Applications and SAR Testing
If the module will be used at distances closer than 20cm to all persons, the device may be
required to undergo SAR testing. Co-location with other transmitting antennas closer than 20cm
should be avoided.
RF Exposure
This statement must be included as a CAUTION statement in OEM product manuals.
WARNING: This equipment is approved only for mobile and base station transmitting
devices. Antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation
distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
IC (Industry Canada) Certification
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio
exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) l'appareil ne
doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage
radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement
Labeling Requirements
Labeling requirements for Industry Canada are similar to those of the FCC. A clearly visible label
on the outside of the final product enclosure must display one of the following text:
Contains IC: 1846A-XB900HP
The integrator is responsible for its product to comply with IC ICES-003 & FCC Part 15, Sub. B-
Unintentional Radiators. ICES-003 is the same as FCC Part 15 Sub. B and Industry Canada accepts
FCC test report or CISPR 22 test report for compliance with ICES-003.
