TEST AND MEASUREMENTS

2.1 Configuration of Tested EUT

The sample was tested per ANSI C63.4, Methods of Measurement from Low-Voltage
Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 30 MHz -1 GHz (1992). Conducted
and radiated emissions data were taken with the test receiver or spectrum analyzer's
resolution bandwidth adjusted to 100 Hz (9 kHz – 150 kHz), 9kHz (150 kHz - 30 MHz), and
120 kHz (30 MHz - 1 GHz) respectively. All measurements are peak unless stated
otherwise. The video filter associated with the spectrum analyzer was off throughout the
evaluation process. Interconnecting cables were manipulated as necessary to maximize
emissions. A block diagram of the tested system is shown in Figure 1. Test configuration
photographs for spurious and fundamental emissions are shown in Figure 2.

The EUT was set up with a 300' length of wire connected to it, to simulate a typical
installation. The wire was not buried, as it would be in a typical installation (approximately 2
-3 inches). Measurements were taken at all three antenna polarities along one of the long
edges (111‘) of the rectangle at a distance of 1 and 3 meters to characterize the
emissions. The worse case emissions were then tested at 10 meters. Results were
corrected to 300 meters by the following 40 log (300/10) = 59.1 dB.

The sample used for testing was received by U.S. Technologies on September 20, 2005 in
good condition.

2.2 Test Facility

Testing was performed at US Tech's measurement facility at 3505 Francis Circle,
Alpharetta, GA. This site has been fully described and submitted to the FCC, and
accepted in their letter marked 31040/SIT. Additionally this site has also been fully
described and submitted to Industry Canada (IC), and has been approved under file
number IC2982. The test facility also consists of a Lindgren Modular Shielded Room lined
with both ferrite tile and Absorbers. Power input to the room is run through steel conduit
beneath the ground plane and is filtered by screen room filters located at the shielded
enclosure power.

Conducted and digital device testing was performed at US Tech's measurement facility as
described to the FCC and acknowledged in their letter marked 31040/SIT/USTECH.

Additional radiated testing was performed at a vacant area that would allow measurements
to be made 10 meters away from the EUT with the 300' length of wire connected to it.


2.3 Test Equipment

Table 2 describes test equipment used to evaluate this product.


2.4 Modifications

The following modifications were made by US Technologies to bring the EUT into
compliance with FCC Part 15, Class B Rules and Regulations, Conducted Emissions
requirements:

1. A .047 uF cap was installed between 15 VAC hot and ground (Pins 1 and 3), on CN1.
2. A .047 uF cap was installed between 15 VAC neutral and ground (Pins 2 and 4), on
   CN1.

2.5 Field Strength of Fundamental Emission (47 CFR 15.209)

Measurements were made using a peak detector. Field strength of the peak fundamental
emission is shown in Table 3.

For purposes of this test, the EUT was set to a maximum duty cycle, maximum TX power,
and 10.65 kHz transmit frequency.

The unit has a 303.0 MHz built- in receiver that maximizes fence emissions when activated.
For this test, the unit was jumpered to configure a continuous transmit at maximum power.


2.6 Duty Cycle Correction During 100 msec:

Although the Transmitter has a Duty Cycle associated with the output of the transmitter,
Duty Cycle correction was not applied.
