3.1       Emission

3.1.1     Radiated Emissions (30 – 1000MHz)

          Test Requirement:                    FCC 47CFR 15.109 Class A
          Test Method:                         ANSI C63.4:2000
          Test Date:                           2003-12-27
          Mode of Operation:                   On mode


Test Method:

The sample was placed 0.8m above the ground plane on the OATS *. Measurements in both
horizontal and vertical polarities were performed. During the test, each emission was
maximized by: having the EUT continuously working, investigated all operating modes, rotated
about all 3 axis (X, Y & Z) and considered typical configuration to obtain worst position,
manipulating interconnecting cables, rotating turntable, varying antenna height from 1m to 4m
in both horizontal and vertical polarizations. The emissions worst-case are shown in Test
Results of the following pages.

*:      OATS [Open Area Test Site] located at HKSTC with a metal ground plane filed with the FCC
        pursuant to section 2.948 of the FCC rules, with Registration Number: 90657.



Test Setup:


                   Distance = 3m                                          Computer

According to FCC 47CFR15.35, the limit on the radio frequency emissions as measured using
instrumentation with a peak detector function, corresponding to 20dB above the maximum permitted
average limit for the frequency being investigated unless a different peak emission limit is otherwise
specified in the rules.

For effective averaging, the bandwidth of the video filter must be smaller than the resolution
bandwidth. The higher the ratio of resolution bandwidth to video bandwidth, the greater the
averaging will be. Below setting for HP8572A EMI Receiver.

instrumentation with a peak detector function, corresponding to 20dB above the maximum permitted
average limit for the frequency being investigated unless a different peak emission limit is otherwise
specified in the rules.

For effective averaging, the bandwidth of the video filter must be smaller than the resolution
bandwidth. The higher the ratio of resolution bandwidth to video bandwidth, the greater the
averaging will be. Below setting for HP8572A EMI Receiver.

Test Method:

The test was performed in accordance with ANSI C63.4:2000, with the following: an initial
measurement was performed in peak and average detection mode on the live line. Any
emissions recorded within 30dB of the relevant limit line were re-measured using quasi-peak
and average detection on the live and neutral lines with the worst case recorded in the table of
results.

3.2     20B Bandwidth of Fundamental Emission

        Test Requirement:                      FCC 47 CFR 15.227
        Test Method:                           ANSI C63.4:2000 (Section 13.1.7)
        Test Date:                             2003-12-27
        Mode of Operation:                     On mode


Test Method:

The bandwidth is measured at an amplitude level reduced from the reference level by a
specified ratio. The reference level is the level of the highest amplitude signal observed from
the transmitter at the fundamental frequency. Once the reference level is established, the
equipment is conditioned with typical modulating signal to produce the worst-case (i.e. the
widest) bandwidth.


Test Setup:

As Test Setup of clause 3.1.1 in this test report.
