1.3   Test Methodology

      Both AC mains line-conducted and radiated emission measurements were
      performed according to the procedures in ANSI C63.4 (2003). All measurements
      were performed in Open Area Test Sites. Preliminary scans were performed in
      the Open Area Test Sites only to determine worst case modes. All Radiated
      tests were performed at an antenna to EUT distance of 3 meters, unless stated
      otherwise in the “Justification Section” of this Application.


1.4   Test Facility

      The open area test site and conducted measurement facility used to collect the
      emission data is located at Garment Centre, 576 Castle Peak Road, Kowloon,
      Hong Kong. This test facility and site measurement data have been fully placed
      on file with the FCC.

2.0   System Test Configuration

2.1   Justification

      The system was configured for testing in a typical fashion (as a customer would
      normally use it), and in the confines as outlined in ANSI C63.4 (2003).

      The EUT was powered from 120Vac/60Hz.

      For maximizing emissions, the EUT was rotated through 360°, the antenna
      height was varied from 1 meter to 4 meters above the ground plane, and the
      antenna polarization was changed. This step by step procedure for maximizing
      emissions led to the data reported in Exhibit 3.0.

      The unit was placed in the center of the turntable.

      The equipment under test (EUT) was configured for testing in a typical fashion
      (as a customer would normally use it). The EUT was placed on turntable, which
      enabled the engineer to maximize emissions through its placement in the three
      orthogonal axes. For simplicity of testing, the unit was wired to transmit
      continuously.

      The frequency range from 9kHz to 3.2GHz was searched for spurious emissions
      from the device. Only those emissions reported were detected. All other
      emissions were at least 20 dB below the applicable limits.


2.2   EUT Exercising Software

      There was no special software to exercise the device. Once the button is
      depressed, the unit transmits the typical signal. For simplicity of testing, the unit
      was wired to transmit continuously.


2.3   Special Accessories

      There are no special accessories necessary for compliance of this product.

                        INTERTEK TESTING SERVICES

3.1   Field Strength Calculation

      The field strength is calculated by adding the reading on the Spectrum Analyzer
      to the factors associated with preamplifiers (if any), antennas, cables, pulse
      desensitization and average factors (when specified limit is in average and
      measurements are made with peak detectors). A sample calculation is included
      below.

      FS = RA + AF + CF - AG + PD + AV

      where FS = Field Strength in dBµV/m
                  RA = Receiver Amplitude (including preamplifier) in dBµV
                  CF = Cable Attenuation Factor in dB
                  AF = Antenna Factor in dB
                  AG = Amplifier Gain in dB
                  PD = Pulse Desensitization in dB
                  AV = Average Factor in -dB

      In the radiated emission table which follows, the reading shown on the data
      table may reflect the preamplifier gain. An example of the calculations, where
      the reading does not reflect the preamplifier gain, follows:

      FS = RA + AF + CF - AG + PD + AV


      Assume a receiver reading of 62.0 dBµV is obtained. The antenna factor of 7.4 dB
      and cable factor of 1.6 dB is added. The amplifier gain of 29 dB is subtracted.
      The pulse desensitization factor of the spectrum analyzer was 0 dB, and the
      resultant average factor was -10 dB. The net field strength for comparison to
      the appropriate emission limit is 32 dBµV/m. This value in dBµV/m was converted
      to its corresponding level in µV/m.

      RA = 62.0 dBµV
      AF = 7.4 dB
      CF = 1.6 dB
      AG = 29.0 dB
      PD = 0 dB

      AV = -10 dB

      FS = 62 + 7.4 + 1.6 - 29 + 0 + (-10) = 32 dBµV/m

      Level in µV/m = Common Antilogarithm [(32 dBµV/m)/20] = 39.8 µV/m

8.2   Discussion of Pulse Desensitization

      The determination of pulse desensitivity was made in accordance with Hewlett
      Packard Application Note 150-2, Spectrum Analysis ... Pulsed RF.

      The effective period (Teff) was approximately 0.24 ms for a digital "1" bit, as
      shown in the plots of Exhibit 8.3. With a resolution bandwidth (3 dB) of 100 kHz,
      the pulse desensitivity factor was 0 dB.

8.3   Calculation of Average Factor

      Averaging factor in dB = 20 log (duty cycle)

      The specification for output field strengths in accordance with the FCC rules
      specify measurements with an average detector. During testing, a spectrum
      analyzer incorporating a peak detector was used. Therefore, a reduction factor
      can be applied to the resultant peak signal level and compared to the limit for
      measurement instrumentation incorporating an average detector.

      The time period over which the duty cycle is measured is 100 milliseconds, or
      the repetition cycle, whichever is a shorter time frame. The worst case (highest
      percentage on) duty cycle is used for the calculation. The duty cycle is measured
      by placing the spectrum analyzer in zero scan (receiver mode) and linear mode
      at maximum bandwidth (3 MHz at 3 dB down) and viewing the resulting time domain
      signal output from the analyzer on a Tektronix oscilloscope. The oscilloscope is
      used because of its superior time base and triggering facilities.


      The duty cycle is simply the on-time divided by the period:

      The duration of one cycle = 99.0 ms
      Effective period of the cycle = (1x1.43+7x0.504+20x0.24) ms = 9.758 ms

      DC = 9.758 ms / 99.0 ms = 0.099

      Therefore, the averaging factor is found by 20 log10 0.099 = -20.1 dB

8.4   Emissions Test Procedures

      The following is a description of the test procedure used by Intertek Testing Services
      in the measurements of transmitters operating under Part 15, Subpart C rules.

      The test set-up and procedures described below are designed to meet the
      requirements of ANSI C63.4 - 2003.

      The transmitting equipment under test (EUT) is placed on a wooden turntable
      which is four feet in diameter and approximately one meter in height above the
      ground plane. During the radiated emissions test, the turntable is rotated and
      any cables leaving the EUT are manipulated to find the configuration resulting in
      maximum emissions. The EUT is adjusted through all three orthogonal axes to
      obtain maximum emission levels. The antenna height and polarization are
      varied during the testing to search for maximum signal levels. The height of the
      antenna is varied from one to four meters.

      Detector function for radiated emissions is in peak mode. Average readings,
      when required, are taken by measuring the duty cycle of the equipment under
      test and subtracting the corresponding amount in dB from the measured peak
      readings. A detailed description for the calculation of the average factor can be
      found in Exhibit 8.3.

      The frequency range scanned is from the lowest radio frequency signal
      generated in the device which is greater than 9 kHz to the tenth harmonic of the
      highest fundamental frequency or 40 GHz, whichever is lower. For line
      conducted emissions, the range scanned is 150 kHz to 30 MHz.

                                                                                         28


                         INTERTEK TESTING SERVICES

8.4   Emissions Test Procedures (cont'd)


      The EUT is warmed up for 15 minutes prior to the test.

      AC power to the unit is varied from 85% to 115% nominal and variation in the
      fundamental emission field strength is recorded. If battery powered, a new, fully
      charged battery is used.

      Conducted measurements are made as described in ANSI C63.4 - 2003.

      The IF bandwidth used for measurement of radiated signal strength was 100 kHz
      or greater when frequency is below 1000 MHz. Where pulsed transmissions of
      short enough pulse duration warrant, a greater bandwidth is selected according
      to the recommendations of Hewlett Packard Application Note 150-2. A
      discussion of whether pulse desensitivity is applicable to this unit is included in
      this report (See Exhibit 8.2). Above 1000 MHz, a resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz
      is used.

      Transmitter measurements are normally conducted at a measurement distance
      of three meters. However, to assure low enough noise floor in the forbidden
      bands and above 1 GHz, signals are acquired at a distance of one meter or
      less. All measurements are extrapolated to three meters using inverse scaling,
      unless otherwise reported. Measurements taken at a closer distance are so
      marked.
