        edge
  Test:                                  FCC Part 15.225 (a), (b), (c), (d)
  Test Specifications:                   Class A
  Test Result:                           Complies                         Date:     1/30/2019- 1/31/2019


         3.1.1          Test Description
Radiated emissions measurements were made from 30MHz to 1GHz at a distance of 3m
(Radiated Emissions) and 1m (Band width, Output Power and Band edges) inside a semi-
anechoic chamber. The EUT was rotated 360°, the antenna height varied from 1-4 meters
and both the vertical and horizontal antenna polarizations examined. The results were
compared against the limits. Measurements were made by first using a spectrum analyzer
to acquire the signal spectrum; individual frequencies were then measured using a CISPR
16.1 compliant receiver with the following bandwidth setting:
       30MHz – 1GHz:120kHz IF bandwidth, 60kHz steps
       10 – 30MHz, 9kHz RBW, 5 kHz steps

         3.1.2          Test Results
No radiated emissions measurements were found in excess of the limits. Test result data
can be seen below.

         3.1.3          Test Environment
Testing was performed at the NCEE Labs Lincoln facility in the 10m semi-anechoic
chamber. Laboratory environmental conditions varied slightly throughout the test:
       Relative humidity of 30 ± 5%
       Temperature of 23 ±2o C

         3.1.4          Test Setup
See Section 2.3 for further details.

    3.2 Frequency Error
  Test:                                  FCC Part 15.225 (e)
  Test Result:                           Complies                          Date:      1/31/2019

         3.2.1          Test Description
Radiated power was measured on a spectrum analyzer with resolution bandwidth and video
    bandwidth set to 3 kHz and 10 kHz respectively. The center frequency was found by
measuring the frequency of the signal 10dB below the peak on the high and low end of the
 signal. The frequency half way in between these frequencies was recorded as the center
       frequency. The temperature was varied from -20°C to -50°C. Limit: 100 PPM



         3.2.2          Test Results
No results were found to be in excess of the limits. A plot of the results can be seen below.

         3.2.3          Test Environment
Testing was performed at the NCEE Labs Lincoln facility on the 10-meter chamber ground
plane. Laboratory environmental conditions varied slightly throughout the test:
       Relative humidity of 30 ± 5%
       Temperature of 23 ±2o C

         3.2.4          Test Setup
See Section 2.3 for further details.

    3.3 Conducted Emissions
  Test Method:                           ANSI C63.10-2013, Section(s) 6.2
  Test Result:                           Complies                  Date:              1/30/2019

         3.3.1          Test Description
Conducted emissions measurements were made from 150kHz to 30MHz via a 50µH Line
Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN). The results were compared against the limits.
Measurements were made on both the line and neutral conductors by first using a spectrum
analyzer to acquire the signal spectrum; individual frequencies were then measured using a
CISPR 16.1 compliant receiver with the following bandwidth setting:
       150kHz – 30MHz: 9kHz IF bandwidth, 5kHz steps

         3.3.2          Test Results
No results were found to be in excess of the limits. A plot of the results can be seen below.

         3.3.3          Test Environment
Testing was performed at the NCEE Labs Lincoln facility. Laboratory environmental
conditions varied slightly throughout the test:
        Relative humidity of 30 ± 5%
        Temperature of 23 ±2o C

         3.3.4          Test Setup
See Section 2.3 for further details.

               Annex B: Sample Field Strength Calculation
Radiated Emissions

The field strength is calculated in decibels (dB) 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:


         FS = R + AF – (-CF + AG)


where FS = Field Strength

         R = Receiver Amplitude Receiver reading in dBµV

         AF = Antenna Factor

         CF = Cable Attenuation Factor

         AG = Preamplifier Amplifier Gain

Assume a receiver reading of 55.00 dBV is obtained. The Antenna Factor of 12.00 and a
Cable Factor of 1.10 is added. The Amplifier Gain of 20 dB is subtracted, giving a field
strength of 48.10 dBV/m.

FS = 55.00 + 12.00 – (-1.10 + 20.00) = 48.1 dBV/m

The 48.1 dBV/m value can be mathematically converted to its corresponding level in V/m.

Level in V/m = Common Antilogarithm [(48.1 dBV/m)/20]= 254.1 V/m


Conducted Emissions

Receiver readings are compared directly to the conducted emissions limits in decibels (dB)
by adding the cable loss and LISN insertion loss to the receiver reading. The basic
equations with a sample calculation is as follows;


         FS = R + IL – (-CF)


where V = Conducted Emissions Voltage Measurement

         R = Receiver reading in dBµV

         Prepared for: Garmin



         IL = LISN Insertion Loss

         CF = Cable Attenuation Factor

Assume a receiver reading of 52.00 dBV is obtained. The LISN insertion loss of 0.80 dB
and a Cable Factor of 1.10 is added. The Amplifier Gain of 20 dB is subtracted, giving a
field strength of 48.1 dBV/m.

V = 52.00 + 0.80 – (-1.10) = 53.90 dBV/m

The 53.90 dBV/m value can be mathematically converted to its corresponding level in
V/m.

Level in V/m = Common Antilogarithm [(48.1 dBV/m)/20]= 495.45 V/m

*Note: NCEE Labs uses the Rohde and Schwarz ES-K1 software package. In this software,
all cable losses are listed as negative. This is why cable loss is subtracting in the preceding
equations.

Margin is calculated by taking the limit and subtracting the Field
