Section 3: Equipment under test (EUT) details Section 3. Equipment under test (EUT) details 3.1 Sample information Receipt date February 12, 2014 Nemko sample ID number 1, 2 3.2 EUT information Product name DESS RFID Ignition Module for Spyder Model 246416 Part number 710004142 Serial number Not applicable 3.3 Technical information Operating frequency 125 kHz (fixed) Modulation type Continuous wave Occupied bandwidth (99 %) 663 Hz Emission designator N0N Power requirements 12 VDC from motorcycle battery Antenna information The EUT uses a non-detachable coil antenna to the intentional radiator 3.4 Product description and theory of operation The Digitally Encoded Security System (DESS) is powered by a 12 VDC battery. It is connected to a key switch barrel (antenna) and communicates with an Engine Control Module (ECM). The base station communicates with a key having a transponder at 125 kHz. Depending if the key inserted in the barrel is authenticated or not, it gives a digital signal (via a Dallas protocol) to the ECM. The ECM will then permit the ignition of the engine. The RFID communication is occurring only at key on and shuts down after authentication. 3.5 EUT exercise details The EUT’s software was modified to transmit continuously once powered. 3.6 EUT setup diagram Antenna Cable EUT ECM Battery Figure 3.6-1: Setup diagram Report reference ID: 246416-2R2TRFWL Page 6 of 16

Section 6: Measurement uncertainty Section 6. Measurement uncertainty 6.1 Uncertainty of measurement Nemko Canada Inc. has calculated measurement uncertainty and is documented in EMC/MUC/001 “Uncertainty in EMC measurements.” Measurement uncertainty was calculated using the methods described in CISPR 16-4 Specification for radio disturbance and immunity measuring apparatus and methods – Part 4: Uncertainty in EMC measurements; as well as described in UKAS LAB34: The expression of Uncertainty in EMC Testing. Measurement uncertainty calculations assume a coverage factor of K=2 with 95% certainty. Report reference ID: 246416-2R2TRFWL Page 9 of 16

Section 8 Testing data Test name FCC 15.215(c) Emission Bandwidth and RSS Gen 4.6.1 Occupied bandwidth Specification FCC Part 15 Subpart C and RSS-210, Issue 8 Section 8. Testing data 8.1 FCC 15.215(c) Emission bandwidth and RSS Gen 4.6.1 Occupied bandwidth 8.1.1 Definitions and limits Part 15.215(c) Intentional radiators operating under the alternative provisions to the general emission limits, as contained in §§15.217 through 15.257 and in Subpart E of this part, must be designed to ensure that the 20 dB bandwidth of the emission, or whatever bandwidth may otherwise be specified in the specific rule section under which the equipment operates, is contained within the frequency band designated in the rule section under which the equipment is operated. The requirement to contain the designated bandwidth of the emission within the specified frequency band includes the effects from frequency sweeping, frequency hopping and other modulation techniques that may be employed as well as the frequency stability of the transmitter over expected variations in temperature and supply voltage. If a frequency stability is not specified in the regulations, it is recommended that the fundamental emission be kept within at least the central 80 % of the permitted band in order to minimize the possibility of out-of-band operation. RSS-Gen Clause 4.6.1 Occupied bandwidth When an occupied bandwidth value is not specified in the applicable RSS, the transmitted signal bandwidth to be reported is to be its 99 percent emission bandwidth, as calculated or measured. The transmitter shall be operated at its maximum carrier power measured under normal test conditions. The span of the analyzer shall be set to capture all products of the modulation process, including the emission skirts. The resolution bandwidth shall be set to as close to 1 percent of the selected span as is possible without being below 1 percent. The video bandwidth shall be set to 3 times the resolution bandwidth. Video averaging is not permitted. Where practical, a sampling detector shall be used since a peak or, peak hold, may produce a wider bandwidth than actual. The trace data points are recovered and are directly summed in linear terms. The recovered amplitude data points, beginning at the lowest frequency, are placed in a running sum until 0.5 percent of the total is reached and that frequency recorded. The process is repeated for the highest frequency data points. This frequency is recorded. The span between the two recorded frequencies is the occupied bandwidth. 8.1.2 Test summary Test date: February 12, 2014 Temperature: 25.2 °C Test engineer: Andrey Adelberg Air pressure: 1020 mbar Verdict: Pass Relative humidity: 31.6 % 8.1.3 Observations/special notes Spectrum analyzer settings: Resolution bandwidth: 300 Hz Video bandwidth: ≥3 × RBW Detector mode: Peak Trace mode: Max Hold Report reference ID: 246416-2R2TRFWL Page 11 of 16

Radiated measurements were performed at a distance of 3 m. Fundamental limit calculation: 67.6 – 20 × log10 (F) = 67.6 – 20 × log10 (125) = 67.6 – 41.9 = 25.7 dBµV/m at 300 m. 300 m to 3 m distance correction factor for frequencies below 30 MHz is 40 × log10 (300 / 3) = 80 dB. Fundamental limit at 3 m = Fundamental limit at 300 m + distance correction factor = 25.7 + 80 = 105.7 dBµV/m at 3 m Spectrum analyser settings for radiated measurements below 30 MHz: Resolution bandwidth: 10 kHz Video bandwidth: 30 kHz Detector mode: Peak Trace mode: Max Hold Spectrum analyser settings for radiated measurements within 30 MHz to 1 GHz: Resolution bandwidth: 100 kHz Video bandwidth: 300 kHz Detector mode: Peak Trace mode: Max Hold Report reference ID: 246416-2R2TRFWL Page 13 of 16
