Summary
This test report supports an application for certification of a transmitter operating pursuant to 47
CFR 15.247. The product is the M6e RFID Limited Module. It is a frequency hopping
transmitter that operates in the range 902-928MHz. Product was tested with Laird Technologies
antenna PN: S8658WPL-T-01 with a gain of 6dBi along with a required antenna extension cable
consisting of one of the following pairs of part numbers:

12ft Cable
510-0076-01 CABLE ASSY, COAXIAL, RTNC-BLKHD-JACK TO MMCX-PLUG, LMR-100
510-0077-01 Coaxial cable with right angle and straight R-TNC connectors, 12FT.

6ft Cable
510-0076-01 CABLE ASSY, COAXIAL, RTNC-BLKHD-JACK TO MMCX-PLUG, LMR-100
300-0025-01

20ft Cable
510-0076-01 CABLE ASSY, COAXIAL, RTNC-BLKHD-JACK TO MMCX-PLUG, LMR-100
300-0081-01 Cable X-Perts, Inc. LMR195LLPL-RPTM-20
300-0024-01 (alternate 20ft. cable)

25ft Cable
510-0076-01 CABLE ASSY, COAXIAL, RTNC-BLKHD-JACK TO MMCX-PLUG, LMR-100
300-0023-01 25ft cable

One of these extension cables is required with any installation of this module due to the fact that
the output power was measured at the antenna end of the cable, which must be in place to
ensure a power below the limit of 30dBm.

ThingMagic will like to qualify several other circular polarized antennas (as mentioned in the
antenna list exhibits). All of the antennas have equal or lower gain compare to the one which
was tested with the product.

We found that the product met the above requirements without modification. Mike Regan or
John Carrick, each from ThingMagic was present during the testing. The test sample was
received in good condition.

Test Methodology
Radiated emission and AC Line conducted testing was performed according to the procedures
specified in ANSI C63.10 (2009) and C63.4 (2009). Radiated Emissions were maximized by
rotating the device around its axes as well as varying the test antenna’s height and polarity.
The device antenna was maximized separately.

Conducted emission at the antenna port was performed, as required by rule section.


The EUT operating voltage is 5VDC
Low operating channel frequency = 902.75MHz
Mid operating channel frequency = 915.25MHz
High operating channel frequency = 927.25MHz

The following bandwidths were used during radiated spurious and line conducted emissions.
          Frequency                        RBW                              VBW

Time of Occupancy
LIMIT
“…if the 20dB bandwidth of the hopping channel is less than 250kHz…the average time of
occupancy on any frequency shall not be greater than 0.4 seconds within a 20 second period”
[15.247(a)(1)(i)]

MEASUREMENTS / RESULTS

The average time of occupancy was measured for three different tag configurations: 0 tags, 10
tags, and 125 tags. In each case, the average individual dwell time was determined by
averaging the duration of 10 dwells. Also, the average repetition rate was determined by
averaging the rise-to-rise times of randomly captured consecutive dwells.

The average time of occupancy was then calculated with these values.
Example Calculation
Ave Time of Occ = (20s/ave rep rate)*ave ind dwell time
Ave Time of Occ = (20s/8.8s)*173.62ms = 394.6ms

                                                 0 Tags             10 Tags            125 Tags

Conditions Of Testing
[Bureau Veritas Consumer Products Services, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation], and/or its affiliates (collectively, the
"Company") will conduct, at the request of the Submitter (“Client”), the tests specified on the submitted Test Request Form or
equivalent in accordance with, and subject to, the following terms and conditions (collectively, “Conditions”):
1. All orders for tests are subject to acceptance by the Company, and no order will constitute a binding commitment of the
Company unless and until such order is accepted by it, as evidenced by the issuance of a written report (“Test Report”) by the
Company. The Test Report is issued solely by the Company, is intended for the exclusive use of Client and shall not be published,
used for advertising purposes, copied or replicated for distribution to any other person or entity or otherwise publicly disclosed
without the prior written consent of the Company. By submitting a request for services to the Company, Client consents to the
disclosure to accreditation bodies of those records of Client relevant to the accreditation body's assessment of the Company's
competence and compliance with relevant accreditation criteria. The Company shall not be liable for any loss or damage
whatsoever resulting from the failure of the Company to provide its services within any time period for completion estimated by the
Company. If Client anticipates using the Test Report in any legal proceeding, arbitration, dispute resolution forum or other
proceeding, it shall so notify the Company prior to submitting the Test Report in such proceeding. The Company has no obligation
to provide a fact or expert witness at such proceeding unless the Company agrees in advance to do so for a separate and additional
fee.
2. The Test Report will set forth the findings of the Company solely with respect to the test samples identified therein. Unless
specifically and expressly indicated in the Test Report, the results set forth in such Test Report are not intended to be indicative or
representative of the quality or characteristics of the lot from which a test sample is taken, and Client shall not rely upon the Test
Report as being so indicative or representative of the lot or of the tested product in general. The Test Report will reflect the findings
of the Company at the time of testing only, and the Company shall have no obligation to update the Test Report after its issuance.
The Test Report will set forth the results of the tests performed by the Company based upon the written information provided to the
Company. The Test Report will be based solely on the samples and written information submitted to the Company by Client, and the
Company shall not be obligated to conduct any independent investigation or inquiry with respect thereto.
3. The Company may, in its sole discretion, destroy samples which have been furnished to the Company for testing and which have
not been destroyed in the course of testing. The Company may delegate the performance of all or a portion of the services
contemplated hereunder to an affiliate, agent or subcontractor of the Company, and Client consents to such delegation.
4. These Conditions and the Test Report represent the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof and of the Test Report, and no modification, variance or extrapolation with respect thereto shall be permitted without the prior
written consent of the Company.
5. The names, service marks, trademarks and copyrights of the Company and its affiliates, including the names “BUREAU
VERITAS,” “BUREAU VERITAS CONSUMER PRODUCTS SERVICES,” “BVCPS”, “MTL”, “ACTS”, “MTL-ACTS” and CURTIS-
STRAUS (collectively, the “Marks”) are and shall remain the sole property of the Company or its affiliates and shall not be used by
Client except solely to the extent that Client obtains the prior written approval of the Company and then only in the manner
prescribed by the Company. Client shall not contest the validity of the Marks or take any action that might impair the value or
goodwill associated with the Marks or the image or reputation of the Company or its affiliates.
6. Payment in full shall be due 30 days after the date of invoice. Interest shall be due on overdue amounts from the due date until
paid at an interest rate of 1.5% per month or, if less, the maximum rate permitted by law. The Company reserves the right, at any
time and from time to time, to revoke any credit extended to Client. Client shall reimburse the Company for any costs it incurs in
collecting past due amounts, including court costs and fees and expenses of attorneys and collection agencies. The Test Report
may not be used or relied upon by Client if and for so long as Client fails to pay when due any invoice issued by the Company or
any affiliate of it to Client or any affiliate or subsidiary of Client together with interest and penalties, if any, accrued thereon.
7. The Company disclaims any and all responsibility or liability arising out of or in connection with e-mail transmissions of such
information.
8. Client understands and agrees that the Company is neither an insurer nor a guarantor, that the Company does not take the
place of Client or any designer, manufacturer, agent, buyer, distributor or transportation or shipping company, and that the Company
disclaims all liability in such capacities. Client further understands that if it seeks assurance against loss or damage, it should obtain
appropriate insurance.
9. Client agrees that the Company, by providing the services, does not take the place of Client nor any third party, nor does the
Company release them from any of their obligations, nor does the Company otherwise assume, abridge, abrogate or undertake to
discharge any duty of any third party to Client or any duty of Client or any third party to any other third party, and Client will not
release any third party from its obligations and duties with respect to the tested goods.
10. Client shall, on a timely basis, (a) provide adequate instructions to the Company in order to enable the Company to perform
properly its services, (b) provide, or cause Client's suppliers and contractors to provide, the Company with all documents necessary
to enable the Company to perform its services, (c) furnish the Company with all relevant information regarding Client's intended use
and purposes of the tested goods, (d) advise the Company of essential dates and deadlines relevant to the tested goods and (e)
fully exercise all rights and remedies available to Client against third parties in respect of the tested goods.
11. The Company shall undertake due care and ordinary skill in the performance of its services to Client, and the Company shall
accept responsibility only were such skill has not been exercised and, even in such event, only to the extent of the limitation of
liability set forth herein.
12. If Client desires to assert a claim arising from or relating to (i) the performance, purported performance or non-performance of
any services by the Company or (ii) the sale, resale, manufacture, distribution or use of any tested goods, it must submit that claim
to the Company in a writing that sets forth with particularity the basis for such claim within 60 days from discovery of the potential
claim and not more than six months after the date of issuance of the Test Report to Client. Client waives any and all such claims
including, without limitation, claims that the Test Report is inaccurate, incomplete or misleading or that additional or different testing
is required, unless and then only to the extent that Client submits a written claim to the Company within both such time periods.

INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH, RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE TEST
REPORT OR THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE COMPANY HEREUNDER, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOSS OF OR
DAMAGE TO PROPERTY; LOSS OF INCOME, PROFIT OR USE; OR ANY CLAIMS OR DEMANDS MADE AGAINST CLIENT OR
ANY OTHER PERSON BY ANY THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH, RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICES
PROVIDED BY THE COMPANY HEREUNDER.
    (B)NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, AND IN RECOGNITION OF THE
RELATIVE RISKS AND BENEFITS TO CLIENT AND THE COMPANY ASSOCIATED WITH THE TESTING SERVICES
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, THE RISKS HAVE BEEN ALLOCATED SUCH THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
WHATSOEVER SHALL THE LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY TO CLIENT OR ANY THIRD PARTY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM
FOR LOSS, DAMAGE OR EXPENSE, OF WHATSOEVER NATURE OR MAGNITUDE, AND HOWSOEVER ARISING, EXCEED
AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO FIVE (5) TIMES THE AMOUNT OF THE FEES PAID TO THE COMPANY FOR THE SPECIFIC
SERVICES WHICH GAVE RISE TO SUCH CLAIM OR U.S.$10,000, WHICHEVER IS THE LESSER AMOUNT.
16. The Company shall not be liable for any loss or damage resulting from any delay or failure in performance of its obligations
hereunder resulting directly or indirectly from any event of force majeure or any event outside the control of the Company. If any
such event occurs, the Company may immediately cancel or suspend its performance hereunder without incurring any liability
whatsoever to Client.
17. Company’s services, including these Conditions, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the local laws of the
country where the Company performs the tests or, in the case of tests performed in the United States of America, the laws of
Massachusetts without regard to conflicts of laws principles. If any aspect(s) of these Conditions is found to be illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of all remaining aspects of these Conditions shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby. Any proceeding related to the subject matter hereof shall be brought, if at all, in the courts of the country where
the Company performs the tests or, in the case of tests performed in the United States of America, in the courts of Massachusetts.
Client waives the right to interpose any counterclaim or setoffs of any nature in any litigation arising hereunder.
