Theory of Operation

The E.U.T. is comprised of three main modules:

1. Radio Receiver PCB
2. Logic / Control PCB
3. Keypad PCB

The receiver antenna is a 2 inch loaded vertical whip with a protective coating.




                                                                                   Page 8 of 28

EQUIPMENT: RFRM Receiver
FCC ID: OHYRFRM

Justification

The E.U.T. was configured for testing as per typical installation. Position and bundling of cables
were investigated to establish maximum amplitude of emissions.

The following combinations were investigated to establish worst case configuration:

(1) Positioned as per installation instructions.



Exercise Program

The E.U.T. exercise program used during radiated and conducted testing was designed to
exercise the various system components in a manner similar to typical use.

Exercise Mode:

(1) Font end of receiver cohered using a CW signal generator feeding a dipole antenna.

Test Results:                 Complies. The worst-case emission level is 35.0 dBµV/m @ 3m
                              at 315.78 MHz. This is 11.0 dB below the specification limit.


Measurement Data:             See attached table.


For super-regenerative receivers the receiver is cohered using a signal generator and dipole
antenna.

Handheld equipment and equipment not designed to be mounted in any fixed orientation, the
E.U.T. is tested in three orthogonal axis to obtain worst case results.

Section 7.             Sample Calculations

Conducted Emissions:

If the Quasi-Peak to Average ratio is greater than 6 dB, then the emission is classified as
broadband and its Quasi-Peak level is reduced by 13 dB for comparison to the limit.

i.e.   Quasi-Peak level = 40 dBµV
       Average level = 34 dBµV
       Corrected level = 40 - 13 = 27 dBµV



Radiated Emissions

Emissions are measured at a distance of 3 meters and corrected for antenna factor and cable loss.

i.e.   Received Signal = 25 dBµV @ 100 MHz
       Antenna Factor & Cable Loss = 9.8 dB
       Field Intensity = 25 + 9.8 = 34.8 dBµV/m @ 3 m
