4.1.2 RF EXPOSURE
All transmitters regulated by FCC must comply with RF
exposure requirements. KDB 447498 General RF
Exposure Guidance provides guidance in determining
whether proposed or existing transmitting facilities,
operations or devices comply with limits for human
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) fields adopted by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
From the FCC Grant: Modular approval. Output power
listed is conducted. This module may only be installed
by the OEM or an OEM integrator. Only antenna(s)
documented in this filing may be used with this trans-
mitter. The 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 collocated or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter within a host device, except in accordance
with FCC multi-transmitter product procedures. OEM
integrators and End-users and installers must be pro-
vided with antenna installation instructions and trans-
mitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure
compliance.
4.1.3
APPROVED EXTERNAL ANTENNA
TYPES
To maintain modular approval in the United States,
only the antenna types that have been tested shall
be used. It is permissible to use different antenna
manufacturers provided the same antenna type that
has similar in-band and out-of-band radiation
patterns and antenna gain (equal to or less than) is
used.
Modular approval testing of the RN1723 module was
performed with the antenna types listed in Table 3-1.

4.2 Canada
The RN1723 module has been certified for use in
Canada under Industry Canada (IC) Radio Standards
Specification (RSS) RSS-210 and RSSGen. Modular
approval permits the installation of a module in a
host device without the need to recertify the device.
4.2.1
LABELING AND USER
INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS
Labeling Requirements for the Host Device (from
Section 3.2.1, RSS-Gen, Issue 3, December 2010):
The host device shall be properly labeled to identify
the module within the host device.
DS70005224A-page 18
The Industry Canada certification label of a module
shall be clearly visible at all times when installed in
the host device, otherwise the host device must be
labeled to display the Industry Canada certification
number of the module, preceded by the words
“Contains transmitter module”, or the word
“Contains”, or similar wording expressing the same
meaning, as follows:
Contains transmitter module IC: 7693A-RN1723
User Manual Notice for License-Exempt Radio
Apparatus (from Section 7.1.3 RSS-Gen, Issue 3,
December 2010): User manuals for license-exempt
radio apparatus shall contain the following or
equivalent notice in a conspicuous location in the
user manual or alternatively on the device or both:
This device complies with Industry Canada
license-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'Indus-
trie 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.
Transmitter Antenna (from Section 7.1.2 RSS-Gen,
Issue 3, December 2010): User manuals for
transmitters shall display the following notice in a
conspicuous location:
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio
transmitter may only operate using an antenna of
a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for
the transmitter by Industry 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.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie
Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner
avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou
inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie
Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de
brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres
utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son
gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité
nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication
satisfaisante.
The above notice may be affixed to the device instead
of displayed in the user manual.
