                                1.0     GENERAL INFORMATION


The following Application for FCC Certification of a Class B transmitter is prepared on behalf of
Microsoft Corporation in accordance with Part 2, and Part 15, Subparts A and C of the Federal
Communications Commissions rules and regulations. The Equipment Under Test (EUT) was the
Microsoft Cordless Wheel Mouse, FCC ID:C3KMS6 Serial Number 4, Tracking Number 372-A. The
test results reported in this document relate only to the item that was tested. The item consists of a
wireless mouse and a wireless receiver hub with two types of interface PS2 and RS 232.

All measurements contained in this application were conducted in accordance with ANSI C63.4 Methods
of Measurement of Radio Noise Emissions, 1992. The instrumentation utilized for the measurements
conform with the ANSI C63.4 standard for EMI and Field Strength Instrumentation. Some accessories
are used to increase sensitivity and prevent overloading of the measuring instruments. These are explained
in the appendix of this report. Calibration checks are performed regularly on the instruments, and all
accessories including the high pass filter, preamplifier and cables.

All radiated and conducted emission measurements were performed manually at Rhein Tech Laboratories,
Inc. The radiated emission measurements required by the rules were performed on the 3/10 meter open
field test ranges maintained by Rhein Tech Laboratories, Inc., 360 Herndon Parkway, Suite 1400,
Herndon, Virginia 20170. Complete description and site attenuation measurement data have been placed
on file with the Federal Communications Commission. The power line conducted emission measurements
were performed in a shielded enclosure also located at the Herndon, Virginia facility. The FCC accepts
Rhein Tech Laboratories as a facility available to do measurement work for others on a contract basis.

1.1     RELATED SUBMITTAL(S)/GRANT(S)/DOC(S)

This is an original submission for Certification. A class B DOC report is on file for the Cordless Wheel
Receiver as a digital interface device. A copy of the cordless wheel receiver class B DoC label is included
in the report. The device operating frequency as a receiver falls below 30 MHz, therefore it is exempted
from FCC technical requirement (15.101 b) but must adhere to the General Conditions of Operations
section 15.5 of the FCC rules and regulations.

1.5     TEST METHODOLOGY

Radiated testing were performed according to the procedures in ANSI C63.4 1992. Radiated testing was
performed at an antenna to EUT distance of one and three meters. The one meter test distance was used
when there were strong ambient signals or extremely low spurious emissions that inhibited measuring at
three meters per FCC 15.31 f (2). The EUT was tested from 9 KHz to the 10th harmonic of channel 1
at 27.045 MHz and channel 2 at 27.145 MHz as well as up to 1000 MHz since the EUT contains a 4
MHz microcontroller. Section 3.1 contains other clocks and oscillators measured. FCC 15.227 average
limit was used to determine the transmitter carrier amplitude. FCC 15.31 f (2) the square of an inverse
linear distance extrapolation factor was used to extrapolate the new limit whenever an EUT to antenna
distance other than the given FCC test distance for frequencies below 30 MHz per FCC 15.209 general
radiation emission limit. Conducted emission testing was not performed on the host computer power line
since the EUT does not have a power supply. The EUT’s DC power is provided by the PS2 port and the
serial port.


1.6     TEST FACILITY

The open area test sites and conducted measurement facility used to collect the radiated data is located on
the rear lot of Rhein Tech Laboratories, Inc., 360 Herndon Parkway, Suite 1400 in Herndon, Virginia.
Our open area test sites 1 and 2 are approved by the Federal Communications Commission to perform AC
line conducted and radiated emissions testing (ANSI C63.4 1992).

3.0     SYSTEM TEST CONFIGURATION

3.1     JUSTIFICATION

The EUT does not have a power supply for AC power; the conducted emissions measurement was
performed on the computer’s AC power line. The EUT was also tested in two orthogonal planes, namely
vertical and horizontal. The following local oscillators, crystals and IF were investigated and measured:
1        Transmitter channel 1 = 27.045 MHz,
2        Transmitter channel 2 = 27.145 MHz,
3        Transmitter channel 1 LO = 9.045 MHz,
4        Transmitter channel 2 LO = 9.145 MHz
5        Transmitter microcontoller oscillator = 4 MHz
6        Receiver channel 1 = 26.59 MHz
7        Receiver channel 2 = 26.69 MHz
8        Receiver microcontroller 7.3728 MHz
9        Receiver IF = 455 KHz
10       PS2 mode
11       Serial mode

3.2     EUT EXERCISE SOFTWARE

The EUT was installed as a PS2 and serial peripheral device using Microsoft Windows device drivers.
The EUT’s firmware was modified so that the carrier was always on. An exercise program was also used
to exercise other peripherals of the system configuration during radiated and conducted testing in a manner
similar to typical use. The software, contained on the hard disk drive, sequentially exercises each system
component as follows:

1) An H prints on the monitor
2) An H prints on the printer
3) An H is sent to the serial ports
4) A file is read from the floppy diskette
5) A file is read from the hard drive and any other hard drive present
6) A file is read from the CD-ROM drive.

Additionally, a looped batch program was initiated to render a continuous flow of data through the USB
ports. No data from the keyboard was transmitted to the PC during testing as it is strictly an input device.
However, it was continuously scanned for data input activity.

Worst case emissions are recorded in the data tables for channel 1 and channel 2 configured as a PS2
interface, and channel 1 and channel 2 configured as a serial interface.

3.3     SPECIAL ACCESSORIES

The interface cable on the EUT is 4 feet long and made out of foil shielded cable with a PS2 connector.
The drain wire terminates on the PS2 connector. The following information is from the cable:
Manufacturer: Pong-DA, Jacket Material: 94V1, Length: 1450 +/- 25 mm, Spiral Shield: default
connection PS/2, Termination: pigtail termination at PS/2 end of cordless wheel mouse receiver cable with
shield wire soldered to one spot on the PS/2 conector shell. Adaptor: converts PS/2 into serial
Manufacturer: Microsoft, Part Number: X05560.

3.4     OCCUPIED BANDWIDTH AND SPURIOUS NOISE

The EUT was set up as per section 1.4 and the transmitter carrier at channel 1 and channel 2 were
measured per ANSI 63.4 occupied bandwidth measurement. The resolution and video bandwidth was set
at 3 KHz and 10 KHz respectively. The sweeptime was set so that the receiver filters were properly
charged. The carrier was on all the time. See the occupied bandwidth plots.

5.1     Field Strength Calculation


The field strength is calculated by adding the Antenna Factor and Cable Factor, and subtracting the
Amplifier Gain (if any) from the measured reading. The basic equation with a sample calculation is as
follows:



                                     FI(dBuV/m) = SAR(dBuV) + SCF(dB/m)
                                             FI = Field Intensity
                                        SAR = Spectrum Analyzer Reading
                                          SCF = Site Correction Factor


The Site Correction Factor (SCF) used in the above equation is determined empirically, and is expressed
in the following equation:

                                  SCF(dB/m) = - PG(dB) + AF(dB/m) + CL(dB)

                                           SCF = Site Correction Factor
                                             PG = Pre-amplifier Gain
                                              AF = Antenna Factor
                                               CL = Cable Loss

The field intensity in microvolts per meter can then be determined according to the following equation:

                                                     FI(uV/m) = 10FI(dBuV/m)/20


For example, assume a signal at a frequency of 125 MHz has a received level measured as 49.3 dBuV.
The total Site Correction Factor (antenna factor plus cable loss minus preamplifier gain) for 125 MHz is
-11.5 dB/m. The actual radiated field strength is calculated as follows:

                                       49.3 dBuV - 11.5 dB = 37.8 dBuV/m

                                         1037.8/20 = 101.89 = 77.6 uV/m

                 APPENDIX D: Conducted and Radiated Test Methodology
                     CONDUCTED EMISSIONS MEASUREMENTS
Note: The conducted emissions measurements are not applicable since the device is battery operated.

The power line conducted emission measurements were performed in a Series 81 type shielded enclosure
manufactured by Rayproof. The EUT was assembled on a wooden table 80 centimeters high. Power was fed to the
EUT through a 50 ohm / 50 microhenry Line Impedance Stabilization Network (EUT LISN). The EUT LISN was
fed power through an A.C. filter box on the outside of the shielded enclosure. The filter box and EUT LISN
housing are bonded to the ground plane of the shielded enclosure. A second LISN, the peripheral LISN, provides
isolation for the EUT test peripherals. This peripheral LISN was also fed A.C. power. A metal power outlet box,
which is bonded to the ground plane and electrically connected to the peripheral LISN, powers the EUT host
peripherals.

The spectrum analyzer was connected to the A.C. line through an isolation transformer. The 50-ohm output of the
EUT LISN was connected to the spectrum analyzer input through a Solar 400 kHz high-pass filter. The filter is
used to prevent overload of the spectrum analyzer from noise below 400 kHz. Conducted emission levels were
measured on each current-carrying line with the spectrum analyzer operating in the CISPR quasi-peak mode (or
peak mode if applicable). The analyzer's 6 dB bandwidth was set to 9 kHz. No video filter less than 10 times the
resolution bandwidth was used. Average measurements are performed in linear mode using a 10 kHz resolution
bandwidth, a 1 Hz video bandwidth, and by increasing the sweep time in order to obtain a calibrated measurement.
The emission spectrum was scanned from 450 kHz to 30 MHz. The highest emission amplitudes relative to the
appropriate limit were measured and have been recorded in this report.

                           RADIATED EMISSIONS MEASUREMENTS

Before final measurements of radiated emissions were made on the open-field three/ten meter range; the EUT was
scanned indoors at one meter distance. This was done in order to determine its emissions spectrum signature. The
physical arrangement of the test system and associated cabling was varied in order to determine the effect on the
EUT's emissions in amplitude, direction and frequency. This process was repeated at one meter distance during
final radiated emissions measurements on the open-field range, at each frequency, in order to insure that maximum
emission amplitudes were attained.

Final radiated emissions measurements were made on the open-field test site at an antenna to EUT distance of 1
meter for emissions between 30 MHz and 1000 MHz. Since the EUT transmits at Channel 1 = 27.045 MHz and
Channel 2 = 27.145 MHz a vertical rod antenna was used to measure the carrier frequency and all other emissions
between 9kHz and 30 MHz per ANSI 63.4. The EUT was placed on a nonconductive turntable 0.8 meters above the
ground plane. The spectrum was examined from 9 kHz to 1000 MHz. All other spurious noise with in and outside
the restricted band was investigated. The square of inverse linear distance was used to extrapolate the new limit
since the limit per FCC 15.209 is given at 30 meters.

At each frequency, the EUT was rotated 360 degrees, and the antenna was raised and lowered from one to four
meters in order to determine the maximum emission levels. Measurements were taken using both horizontal and
vertical antenna polarizations. The spectrum analyzer's 6 dB bandwidth was set to 200 Hz for frequencies between
10 kHz and 150 kHz, 9 kHz for frequencies between 150 kHz and 30 MHz, and 120 kHz for frequencies between 30
MHz and 1000 MHz. No video filter less than 10 times the resolution bandwidth was used. When any clock
exceeds 108 MHz, the EUT was tested between 1 to 2 Gigahertz in peak mode with the resolution bandwidth set at 1
MHz as stated in ANSI C63.4. The highest emission amplitudes relative to the appropriate limit were measured
and recorded in this report.

Note: Rhein Tech Laboratories, Inc. has implemented procedures to minimize errors that occur from test
instruments, calibration, procedures, and test setups. Test instrument and calibration errors are documented from
the manufacturer or calibration lab. Other errors have been defined and calculated within the Rhein Tech quality
manual, section 6.1. Rhein Tech implements the following procedures to minimize errors that may occur: yearly as
well as daily calibration methods, technician training, and emphasis to employees on avoiding error.
