Standards Applied to Test: [2.1033(b6)]
ANSI C63.4 - 1992, Appendix I
CFR47 FCC Part 2, Part 15, SubPart C, 15.247

Test Methodology: [2.947(a), 2.1033(b6)]

For the testing, the placement of the EUT and the support equipment was selected to represent a
configuration which would operate the equipment within the setup constraints of ANSI C63.4.

Because the unit is only for portable operation and does not utilize the power mains, there was no
line conducted testing performed. The radiated testing, performed at a 3 meter open field test
site, was completed according to the procedures outlined in the standards.

The cables of the EUT were manipulated to produced the highest signal level relative to the limit.
The pictures, in this submittal, show the position of the equipment and cabling that produced the
maximum signal level.

For radiated evaluations the EUT radio module was tested stand alone with the exception of a
support computer to generate the program to exercise the EUT for testing.

In addition to evaluating the fundamentals and their harmonics, a test scan from 30MHz to 2GHz
was performed to record levels of digital and associated emissions. This data included signals
associated with the support computer and I/O cabling.

The EUT module was mounted on a manufacturer supplied test fixture. This fixture and
associated I/O cable were isolated from the EUT RF by applying aluminum foil around the test
fixture and cable. The aluminum foil was bonded to the rear of the support computer.

The EUT was positioned above the test fixture on standoffs outside the area of any shielding.
This arrangement allowed the EUT emitted signals to be measured at their maximum while
suppressing emissions from the engineering prototype test fixture. Signal and power connections
were made via a tall header of pins which mated with the connector of the EUT.

The antenna was connected to the module. Data was collected with the antenna arranged in a
vertical and horizontal position.

The EUT was exercised using a program which allowed the tester to turn the transmitter on and
set the bit rate of modulation.

                                             Exhibit K: Page 8 of 5


Test report #20000282F                      FCC 15.247 for MI-4800B             FCC ID: LDK102039
                                             Tested February 2, 2000


During the measurements of the transmitter, the EUT was continuously transmitting. Tests at
different bit rates of 1Mbit, 2Mbit, 5.5Mbit, and 11Mbit were made to assure that the highest
possible RF profile was being captured.


Radiated

The system was placed upon a 1 x 1.5 meter non-metallic table 80cm from the open field site
ground plane in the prescribed setup per ANSI C63.4, Figure 9(c).

The table sits upon a remote controlled turntable. The receiving antenna, located at the
appropriate standards distance of 3 or 10 meters from the table center, is also remote controlled.

Preliminary tests were done at the 3 meter open field test site. The final tests are done at the
appropriate standards distance of 3 or 10 meters. The "Biconical/Log Periodic" broadband
antenna connected to an EMI Receiver, meeting CISPR 16, is used throughout the testing.

The turntable was rotated 360 degrees and the receiving antenna height varied from 1 to 4 meters
to search out the highest emissions. Both Vertical and Horizontal RF profiles were evaluated.

The principal settings of the EMI Receiver for radiated testing include:
    Bandwidth:              120KHz for frequencies less than 1Ghz.
                            1MHz for frequencies greater than 1GHz.
    Detector Function: scanning and signal search = Peak Mode
                            measurements = Quasi Peak Mode for frequencies less than 1Ghz.
                                            Average mode for frequencies greater than 1GHz.
The cable loss of the coax used in radiated scanning is charted in this report.

The resultant Field Strength (FS) is a summation in decibels (dB) of the Indicated Receiver Level
(RF), the Antenna Correction Factor (AF), and the Cable Loss Factor (CF). If a PreAmplifier
(PA) is used, its gain (dB) is subtracted from the above sum.

Formula 1:                     FS(dBuV/m) = RF(dBuV) + AF(dB/m) +CF(dB) - PA(dB)

To convert the Field Strength dBuV/m term to uV/m, the dBuV/m is first divided by 20. The
Base 10 AntiLog is taken of this quotient. The result is the Field Strength value in uV/m terms.

Formula 2:                     FS(uV/m) = AntiLog[(FS(dBuV/m))/20]
