TEST PROCEDURES

Radiation Interference: ANSI ©63.4—2003 using a spectrum analyzer, a preselector, a
quasi—peak adapter, and an appropriate antenna. The analyzer was calibrated in dB above a
microvolt at the output of the antenna. The resolution bandwidth was 100 kHz with an
appropriate sweep speed and the video bandwidth was 300 kHz up to 1 GHz and 1 MHz with a
video BW of 3 MHz above 1      GHz. When an emission was found, the table was rotated to
produce the maximum signal strength. The antenna was placed in both the horizontal and
vertical planes and the worst case emissions were reported. The spectrum was searched to at
least the tenth (10) harmonic of the fundamental. Emissions were scanned from 30MHz to the
tenth harmonic of the fundamental frequency at three places in the band. All emissions
greater than 20 dB from the limit are not reported.

Formula Of Conversion Factors: The field strength at 3m was established by adding the
meter reading of the spectrum analyzer (which is set to read in units of dBuV) to the antenna
correction factor supplied by the antenna manutacturer. The antenna correction factors are
stated in terms of dB. The gain of the preselector was accounted for in the spectrum analyzer
meter reading.

       Example:
       Freq (MHz)    Meter Reading        + ACF             L = FS
       33            20 dBuV              + 10.36 dB    + 0.5 = 30.86 dBuV/m @ 3m

Power Line Conducted Interference: The procedure used was ANSI C63.4—2003 using a
50uH LISN. Both lines were observed. The bandwidth of the spectrum analyzer was 10kHz
with an appropriate sweep speed. The spectrum was scanned from 0.15 to 30 MHz.

Occupied Bandwidth:       A small sample of the transmitter output was fed into the spectrum
analyzer and the attached plot was printed. The vertical scale is set to —10 dBm per division.

ANSI C63.4—2003 10.1 Measurement Procedures: The EUT was placed on a table 80 cm
high and with dimensions of 1m by 1.5m. The EUT was placed in the center of the table (1.5m
side). The table used for radiated measurements is capable of continuous rotation..

When an emission was found, the table was rotated to produce the maximum signal strength.
At this point, the antenna was raised and lowered from 1m to 4m. The antenna was placed in
both the horizontal and vertical planes. Emissions attenuated more than 20 dB below the
permissible value are not reported.
