Setting Up Units Using the Remote Control Feature (WAVECOM®" Sr. only) WAVECOM® Sr. not only allows you to send crisp audio/video from one area to Using absolutely no wires, WAVECOM" Sr. and WAVECOM Jr. can another, it also gives you the ability to control the source using your existing remote send audio or video signals from virtually any sound or picture source to control device (feature not available with WAVECOM" Jr.). The infrared (IR) any TV, video monitor or powered speakers using the same connectors signal emitted by your remote control is convertered to a radio frequency (RF) signal at the WAVECOM" Sr. receiver and then sends it back to the WAVECOM" as your other electronics. Sr. transmitter, where the RF signal is converted back to the original IR signal and used to control the audio/video source (see below). To enjoy wireless video and audio, just connect the transmitter (Mode!

13 May 1998 FCC ID: MFEWAVECOMRA438—01 APPENDIX C Information Supplied to Applicant

13 May 1998 FCC ID: MFEWAVECOMRA438—01 INFORMATION PERTAINING TO EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURED AFTER COMPLIANCE TESTING Manufactures should be aware that the FCC requires all products manufactured and shipped be compliant with its Rules. The testing of an early production unit is sufficient to meet the basic requirements either for Verification or Certification. However, seemingly small changes to the product design can make a significant difference in the product‘s EMI characteristics. Such changes include the changing of logic, the addition of options, the changing of power supplies, interboard cable routing or other changes normally falling under the category of value engineering. Thus, it is prudent that manufacturers have an established Quality Assurance program to spot check their products on a periodic basis, either based upon time of qualities produced. Obviously, a change in the engineering design should be sufficient justification for a repeated test. The Quality Assurance test need not be formal Verification or Certification such as is required during the initial production of the product. However, it should be sufficient in scope to assure that the EMI characteristics of the product have not changed to the degree that the product exceeds the FCC Limits. If a new model of a product is produced, it must undergo full Verification or Certification testing and, in case of Certification, be filed with the FCC. It is expected that the FCC will place greater emphasis and resources in spot checking commercially available products. If a product is found not to be compliant with the Limits specified in Part 15, Subpart J, the manufacturer will be subject to the appropriate penalties imposed by the Commission. The initial Certification or Verification is sufficient to justify initial production. The additional quality assurance testing performed is the manufacturer‘s responsibility to assure continued compliance.
