5.            ATTESTATION

This report describes the tests and measurements performed for the purpose of
determining compliance with the specification with the following conditions:

The client selected the test sample.

The report relates only to the sample tested.

This report does not contain corrections or erasures.

Measurement uncertainties with statistical confidence intervals of 95% are shown below
test results. Both Class A and Class B uncertainties have been accounted for, as well as
influence uncertainties where appropriate.

In addition this equipment has been tested in accordance with the requirements contained
in the appropriate Commission regulations.

To the best of my knowledge, these tests were performed using measurement procedures
that are consistent with industry or Commission standards and demonstrate that the
equipment complies with the appropriate standards.

I further certify that the necessary measurements were made by EMC Technologies NZ
Ltd, 47 MacKelvie Street, Grey Lynn, Auckland, New Zealand.

6.         TRANSMITTER TEST RESULTS

Section 15.203 – Antenna requirement

The device has an integral antenna that is attached permanently.

Section 15.205 – Restricted bands of operation

Refer to measurements made with reference to Section 15.247 (c).

Section 15.207 – Conducted emissions

Normally this device operates using internal batteries.

However the device can be operated while sitting in a charger base (Cradle Guad 2 P/N
53500-00).

Testing was carried out with the device was operating while attached to the charger base
when powered at 110 Vac while in standby mode and when transmitting continuously in
WLAN and Bluetooth modes and with the GPS Receiver operating.

Conducted emissions testing was carried out over the frequency range of 150 kHz to 30
MHz.

Testing was carried out in the laboratory’s MacKelvie Street screened room.

The device was placed on top of the test table, which is 1m x 1.5m, 80cm above the screened
room floor which acts as the horizontal ground plane. In addition the device was positioned
40cm away from the screened room wall which acts as the vertical ground plane. The artificial
mains network was bonded to the screened room floor. At all times the device was kept more
than 80cm from the artificial mains network.

Quasi-Peak and Average measurements were made with a receiver bandwidth of 9 kHz.

The supplied plot shows combined graphs of measurements made on both the phase and
neutral AC voltage supply lines.

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
 - Mains terminal tests            (0.15 - 30 MHz) ± 2.2 dB

Result: Comp lies

Section 15.209 – Radiated emissions

In accordance with section 15.247(c) attenuation below the general limits specified in Section
15.209(a) is not required except for those emissions that fall within the restricted bands
defined in Section 15.205(a).

Section 15.247 (a) (1) – Frequency hopping systems channel bandwidth.

The frequency hopping system tested was a Bluetooth device.

79 channels were observed in operation between 2402 MHz and 2480 MHz which equates to
a channel spacing of 1 MHz.




The 20 dB bandwidth has been determined at 2402 MHz, 2440 MHz and 2480 MHz using a
spectrum analyser with a resolution bandwidth of 30 kHz that gave a worst case bandwidth of
863 kHz.

Testing was carried out using the test option where by a continuous stream of packet was sent
using a PRBS9 data sequence.

This approximates the calculated channel spacing of 1 MHz.

                                                           Channel spacing when hopping




Section 15.247 (a) (1) (iii) – Channel occupancy

As detailed previously 79 channels are used between 2402 – 2480 MHz.

The average time of occupancy on any channe l shall not exceed 0.4 seconds within a period of
0.4 seconds multiplied by the number of hopping channels utilised.

400 mS x 79 channels = 31.5 seconds.

The Bluetooth specification states that each channel is occupied for 625 uS during which time
any data is transmitted and received.

The device was operated using test software supplied by the client.

When tuned to 2441 MHz with a 0 Hz span the transmitter was observed to operate 20 times
in 2 seconds.

Therefore in a 31.5 second period the transmitter would operate 315 times.

It can be seen that the transmitter operates for approximately 500 uS of the 625 uS.

As per the Bluetooth specification, in any observation period the transmitter will operate on
one channel for up to 625 uS and then hop to the next channel to receive for up to 625 uS and
then hop to the next channel to transmit for a further 625 uS etc.

In any 31.5 second period the transmitter will transmit 315 times and the receiver will receive
315 times on the channel where observations are made.

The channel will therefore have been occupied a total of 630 times.

In a period of 31.5 seconds each channel was occupied on average for a period of:

630 times x 625 uS = 0.39375 seconds or 393.75 mS.

The specification limit is 0.4 seconds or 400 mS in a 31.5 second observation period.

Result: Complies

Section 15.247 (b) (1) & (3) – Peak output power

As this device has no external antenna port, with the antenna being located internally;
radiated measurements were made to determine the peak output power.

The device was placed on the test table, being 80 cm above the ground plane, with the
computer screen display facing the test antenna located 3 metre away.

The device was rotated in order to determine the highest power output indication.

Measurements of the Bluetooth device were made with the spectrum analyser operating
in peak hold mode with a resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz when transmitting continuously .

Testing was carried out on channel 1 (2412 MHz) in the following modes:
-      802.11a at 1, 5.5 and 11 Mbps
-      802.11g at 6, 12, 24 and 54 Mbps

Measurements were made on a low, middle and high frequency channel


Measurements of the Bluetooth device were made with the spectrum analyser operating
in peak hold mode with a resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz when transmitting continuously

Testing was carried when transmitting continuously on 2402 MHz, 2440 MHz and 2480
MHz in Bluetooth mode.

The device was placed on the test table, being 0.8 m above the ground plane, with the
front display facing the test antenna.

Measurements were made using a resolution bandwidth of 100 kHz where an emission
fell outside of a restricted band.

When an emission fell within a restricted band, above 1 GHz, a peak detector and an
average detector with a resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz were utilised in accordance with
section 15.209.

Below 1 GHz a quasi peak detector with a resolution bandwidth of 120 kHz was utilised.

All measurements were initially made over a distance of 3 metres.

Above 1 GHz pre-testing was carried out at a distance of 10 cm as the emission levels
from the device were very low.

In the unrestricted bands measurements were made to determine if the field strength of
the emissions observed were more than 20 dB down on the highest in band emission
level.

When an emission is located, it is positively identified and its maximum level is found by
rotating the automated turntable, and by varying the antenna height with an automated
antenna tower. The emission is measured in both vertical and horizontal antenna
polarisations.

The emission level is determined in field strength by taking the following into
consideration:

Level (dBµV/m) = Receiver Reading (dBµV) + Antenna Factor (dB) + Coax Loss (dB) –
Amplifier Gain (dB)

Emissions with a margin greater than 20 dB of the limit have not been reported.

When the device was powered at 110 Vac the following devices were connected:
-     external GPS antenna to that GPS antenna port
-     laptop computer to the Ethernet port
-     USB device attached to the USB port

The device could also be powered using an external 12 Vdc source using what is known as a
serial clip.

When using the serial clip the following devices were connected:
-     external GPS antenna to that GPS antenna port
-     laptop computer to the serial port
-     12 Vdc in car power supply adaptor

The standard limits have been applied to the other emissions below 1000 MHz as these
emissions are always present and are not determined by whether the transmitter is on or not.

Result: Complies

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
      - Free radiation tests       (30 – 18,000 MHz) ± 4.1 dB

Band edge measurements

The Bluetooth device is required to operate in the band 2400 MHz to 2483.5 MHz.


Initially relative measurements were made in the laboratory using a 100 kHz resolution
bandwidth with the –20 dB limit being applied at both band edges.

Blue tooth mode between 2402 – 2480 MHz with a 20 dB mask applied.
