which was carried out at the laboratory’s MacKelvie Street premises in a 2.4 m x 2.4 m x 2.4
m screened room

Testing was carried out using a representative AC power supply system that was powered at
120 Vac 60 Hz which supplied 12 Vdc to a Gallagher Controller 6000 device which in turn
powered the Card Reader at 12 Vdc.

The device operates on 125 kHz and 13.560 MHz.

Testing was carried out with both transmitters operating with their standard antennas attached
and when the 13.560 MHz antenna was removed and replaced with a dummy load.

The device is deemed to comply providing it complies when the test is carried out with the
dummy load attached and the overall emission signature for the product remains similar with
no additional emissions being detected.

This is the case with this device.

The device was placed on top of the emissions table, which is 1 m x 1.5 m, 80 cm above the
screened room floor which acts as the horizontal ground plane.

In addition the device was positioned 40 cm 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 80 cm from the artificial mains network.

The Class B limits have been applied.

The supplied plot is combined plot showing the worst case quasi peak and average results of
both the phase and neutral lines to the representative AC power supply.

Quasi peak and average detectors have been used with resolution bandwidths of 9 kHz.

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
- AC Mains port             (0.15-30 MHz)  2.8 dB

Section 15.209: Radiated emission limits, general requirements

Radiated emissions testing was carried out over the frequency range of 100 kHz to 1000 MHz
as the highest frequency in use has been stated to be les than 108 MHz (27.120 MHz).

Testing was carried out at the laboratory’s open area test site - located at Driving Creek, Orere
Point, Auckland, New Zealand.

An enclosure containing absorber material, Panashield HYB-NF-12, has been placed between
the turntable and the measurement antenna for when measurements are made above 1 GHz.

This material has no absorbing affect below 1 GHz with site verification measurements
confirming this.

Testing was carried out using a representative AC power supply system that was powered at
120 Vac 60 Hz which supplied 12 Vdc to a Controller 6000 device which in turn powered the
Card Reader also at 12 Vdc.

The Controller 6000 and representative AC power supply were placed 5 metres directly
behind the device under test (in the coffin).

Testing was carried out with the device being placed in the centre of the test table standing
vertically upright using a test jig.

The device was transmitting continuously on 125 kHz and 13.560 MHz.

Correct operation was confirmed periodically by placing a suitable card in front of the device
which would give an audible beep.

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, where appropriate, with an
automated antenna tower.

Below 30 MHz a magnetic loop is used with the centre of the loop being 1 metre above the
ground with measurements being made using a quasi peak detector.

Above 30 MHz the emission is measured in both vertical and horizontal antenna polarisations,
where appropriate, using a quasi peak detector.

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

Level (dBV/m) = Receiver Reading (dBV) + Antenna Factor (dB/m) + Coax Loss (dB)

Result: Complies

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
      - Free radiation tests       (30 – 1000 MHz)  4.1 dB
      - Free radiation tests       (100 kHz – 30 MHz)  4.8 dB

Section 15.209: 125 kHz Fundamental emission:

Measurements were made using a magnetic loop antenna and a receiver with an average
detector and a peak detector both using a 9 kHz bandwidth

  Frequency   Level    Limit  Margin Detector Distance
    (kHz)   (dBuV/m) (dBuV/m)  (dB)           (metres)
   125.000     50.0     84.7   29.7  Average     10
   125.000     55.0    104.7   36.6   Peak       10

Measurements were made at a distance of 10 metres with the limit being determined by using
the extrapolation factor of 40 dB per decade limit as detailed in section 15.31 f (2).

The 300 metre limit between 125 – 490 kHz has been scaled by a factor of 40 dB per decade,
as per section 15.31 (f) (2).

The average limit at 300 m at 125.0 kHz is 19.2 uV/m or 25.7 dBuV/m and 45.7 dBuV/m in
peak.

= 25.7 dBuV/m + -40 dB/decade * (log (10) - log (300))
= 25.7 dBuV/m + -40 dB/decade * (1.000 - 2.477)
= 25.7 dBuV/m + -40 dB/decade * - 1.477
= 25.7 dBuV/m + 59.08
= 84.7 dBuV/m

This gives a limit at 10 m at 134.2 kHz of 84.7 dBuV/m and 104.7 dBuV/m in peak

Testing was also carried out to determine whether a variation in the supply voltage would
cause a significant change in the peak field strength.

As a worst case indication the 12 Vdc supply to the card reader was varied by +/- 15%
between 10.2 Vdc and 13.8 Vdc.

          13.8                              55.0

Magnetic loop measurements were made a distance of 10 metres with the measurement
antenna being further adjusted to give the highest field strength.

The 300 metre limit between 125 – 490 kHz has been scaled by a factor of 40 dB per decade,
as per section 15.31 (f) (2).

= Limit (dBuV/m) + -40 dB/decade * (log (10) - log (300))
= Limit (dBuV/m) + -40 dB/decade * (1.000 - 2.477)
= Limit (dBuV/m) + -40 dB/decade * - 1.477
= Limit (dBuV/m) + 59.08

The limit between 110 – 490 kHz was increased by 20 dB when the peak detector was used.

The 30 metre limit between 490 – 1705 kHz has been scaled by a factor of 40 dB per decade,
as per section 15.31 (f) (2).

= Limit (dBuV/m) + -40 dB/decade * (log (10) - log (30))
= Limit (dBuV/m) + -40 dB/decade * (1.000 - 1.477)
= Limit (dBuV/m) + -40 dB/decade * - 0.477
= Limit (dBuV/m) + 19.08

The spurious emissions observed do not exceed the level of the fundament emission.

Result: Complies.
Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
- Free radiation tests      (100 kHz – 30 MHz)  4.8 dB

Magnetic loop measurements were attempted at a distance of 10 metres.

A receiver with a quasi peak detector with a 9 kHz bandwidth was used between 490 kHz –
30.0 MHz.

The 30 metre limit between 1.705 MHz – 30 MHz has been scaled by a factor of 40 dB per
decade, as per section 15.31 (f) (2).

The limit at 27.122 MHz when measured at 30 metres is 30 uV/m or 29.54 dBuV/m.

Therefore when scaled the limit at 10 metres will be 48.6 dBuV/m as detailed below.

= 29.54 dBuV/m + -40 dB/decade * (log (10) - log (30))
= 29.54 dBuV/m + -40 dB/decade * (1.000 - 1.477)
= 29.54 dBuV/m + -40 dB/decade * - 0.477
= 29.54 dBuV/m + 19.08
= 48.6 dBuV/m

The spurious emission observed does not exceed the level of the fundament emission

Result: Complies.
Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
- Free radiation tests      (100 kHz – 30 MHz)  4.8 dB

Section 15.225: Fundamental emission:

Measurements were made using a magnetic loop antenna and a receiver with a quasi peak
detector using a 9 kHz bandwidth

Measurements were made at a distance of 10 metres with the limit being determined by using
the extrapolation factor of 40 dB per decade limit, as detailed in section 15.31 f (2).

The limit at 30 m at 13.560 MHz is 15,848 uV/m or 84.0 dBuV/m.

Applying the extrapolation factor of 40 dB/ per decade, the limit is 103.1 dBuV/m.

= 84.0 dBuV/m + -40 dB/decade * (log (10) - log (30))
= 84.0 dBuV/m + 19.08
= 103.1 dBuV/m

As a worst case testing was also carried out when the device was transmitting continuously
when the 12.0 Vdc supply to the device was varied by +/- 15%.
