Notice applicable to Evaluation Boards not FCC-Approved
This kit is designed to allow:
(1)Product developers to evaluate electronic components, circuitry, or software associated with the kit to determine whether to
incorporate such items in a finished product and
(2)Software developers to write software applications for use with the end product.
This kit is not a finished product and when assembled may not be resold or otherwise marketed unless all required FCC
equipment authorizations are first obtained. Operation is subject to the condition that this product not cause harmful interference
to licensed radio stations and that this product accept harmful interference. Unless the assembled kit is designed to operate
under part 15, part 18 or part 95 of 47 CFR, Chapter I (“FCC Rules”), the operator of the kit must operate under the authority of
an FCC license holder or must secure an experimental authorization under part 5 of this chapter.
