           EXHIBIT 10: Modular Approval Requirements
Modular Approval is being requested for this device. There are eight
requirements that the device must meet for full modular approval. The following
paragraphs detail these requirements and the manner in which the device meets
them.

The module meets all of the technical specifications applicable to the frequency
band of operation.

The module has its own RF shielding.

       The top (component side) is fully enclosed by a tin plated shield which is
       soldered to the rf ground plane continuously on all 4 sides.

       The bottom (solder side) is a fully poured copper gound layer. No traces are
       on this layer. There are vias between the ground layer and shield.

All modulation and data input(s) are buffered.

       U2 contains isolators for the digital serial interface pin. The isolators are
       separately powered and are tolerant of being drive above the VDD of the
       device. The clock domain of this circuit is also independent. RESET is
       internally protected by U2 so that the device always powers into an idle
       state.

The module has its own power supply regulation and local reference oscillator.

       The module contains its own power supply regulation and the rf reference
       oscillator is contained within the module. Power supply regulation is
       provided via six internal, separately decoupled LDOs inside U1 and a
       single LDO inside U2. The module does not need to be powered by a
       regulated power source. The voltage range is 2.7 to 3.6Vdc. U1 also
       contains a complete VCO driven by an internal reference oscillator. The
       reference oscillator uses X1, a 12MHz reference crystal completely contain
       on the module.


The modular transmitter must comply with the antenna requirements of Section
15.203 and 15.204(c). The certification submission contains a detailed description
of the configuration of all antennas that will be used with the module.

       The module connects to its antenna via a micro-coax connector). This
       connector must be internally connected to the antenna without the
       possibility of user access.


       The antenna is a 2dBi folded dipole.                 Inpaq    Antenna    part#
       DAMA00BM11500200 was provided for testing.

       The antenna connector is not user accessible. Only folded dipole antennas
       with 2dBi gain or less can be used with this module.

For Industry Canada, the module meets certification labeling requirements. Host
devices that contain separately certified modules do not need to be re-certified,
provided that they meet the following conditions:
   • The host device, as a stand alone unit without any separately certified
       modules, complies with all applicable Radio Standards Specifications.
   • The host device and all the separately certified modules it contains jointly
       meet the safety requirements of RSS-102, if applicable.
   • The host device complies with the certification labeling requirements of
       each of the modules it contains.

       The module is appropriately labeled with a permanently adhered white
       label on the solder side of the module.


For the FCC, the modular transmitter must be tested in a stand-alone configuration,
i.e., the module must not be inside another device during testing. This is intended
to demonstrate that the module is capable of complying with Part 15 emission limits
regardless of the device into which it is eventually installed. Unless the transmitter
module will be battery powered, it must comply with the AC line conducted
requirements found in Section 15.207.

       Test data contained in this application is for the device tested as a stand-
       alone battery powered device.          Radiated spurious emissions data
       demonstrating compliance with the requirements of Part 15 of the FCC
       rules for intentional radiators has been provided. AC conducted tests were
       performed on the module using an external DC supply (Refer to Test
       configuration photo document).

For the FCC, the modular transmitter must be labeled with its own FCC ID
number, and, if the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside
another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed
must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can
use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID:
BRWDXMTX10” or “Contains FCC ID: BRWDXMTX10.”

       The module is appropriately labeled. The label is mounted on solder side of
       the module. Information to the integrator of this system regarding the
       labeling requirements for the host system are contained in the instructions
       provided with the module (X1OEMTX User guide).


The modular transmitter must comply with any applicable RF exposure

       The module transmits at a maximum of 6.5mW EIRP this is less than the
       24.5mW SAR limit. Please refer to the MPE calculation.
