INTRODUCTION An EMC evaluation to determine compliance of theEco L Transmitter with the requirements of §15.101(a) for Class B Digital Devices was conducted. (All references are to the most current version of Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations in effect). In accordance with §2.1075(a)(3), the following data is presented in support of the Declaration of Conformity of theEco L Transmitter. HBC-Radiomatic should retain a copy of this document which should be kept on file for at least two years after the manufacturing of theEco L Transmitter has been permanently discontinued, as per §2.1075(c). TEST SITE All testing was conducted at MET Laboratories, Inc., 914 West Patapsco Avenue, Baltimore, Maryland 21230- 3432. Radiated Emissions measurements were performed on an open area test site (OATS). In accordance with §2.948(a)(3), a complete site description is contained at MET Laboratories. In accordance with §2.948(d), MET Laboratories has been accredited by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (Lab Code: 100273-0) MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES As required by §15.209(a), radiated Emissions measurements were made in accordance with the general procedures of ANSI C63.4-1992 "Methods of Measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 9kHz to 40 GHz". The measurements were performed over the frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 GHz using broadband antennas as the input transducer to a spectrum analyzer. The measurements were made with the detector set for "quasi-peak" within a bandwidth of 120 kHz. A preliminary RF scan was performed in an RF-shielded enclosure. Final measurements were made on the OATS, as per §15.31(d). As per §15.249 , operation within the bands 902-928 MHz : (a) the field strength of the emissions from intentional radiators operated within these frequency bands shall comply with the following : Fundamental Field Strength of fundamental Field Strength of harmonics Frequency (millivolts/meter) (microvolts/meter) 902 -928 MHz 50 500 (b) Field strength limits are specified at a distance of 3 meters. (c) Emissions radiated outside of the specified frequency bands, except for harmonics, shall be attenuated by at least 50 dB below the level of the fundamental or to the general radiated emissions limits in §15.209, whichever is the lesser attenuation. (d) As shown in §15.35(b), for frequencies above 1000 MHz , the above field strength limits are based on average limits. However, the peak field strength of any emission shall not exceed the maximum permitted average limits specified above by more than 20 dB under any condition of modulation. MODIFICATIONS STATEMENT No modifications were made during testing. December 20, 2000 -7- EMC1308C
