These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 3 of 15 conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. For operation within 5.15 ~ 5.25GHz frequency range, it is restricted to indoor environment. IMPORTANT NOTE: FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Industry Canada Statement Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) this device may not cause interference and 2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 14dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the EIRP is not more than required for successful communication. Because high power radars are allocated as primary users (meaning they have priority) in 5250-5350 MHz, these radars could cause interference and/or damage to license exempt LAN devices.

CAT5 Ethernet cable 192.168.10.2 192.168.10.1 Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 9 of 15 3.1 Instruction to get setup 1) Download the PC_Art.zip file and unzip to your PC's hard drive. a) For example, unzip to d:\art folder 2) Download the vxWorks-wdb file into your FTP server's home directory. Configure the FTP server to accept connections based on the following: a) Username: tl b) Password: testing c) Server IP address: 192.168.10.1 d) Filename: vxWorks-wdb 3) Powerup the WARP module and check to see if it downloads the vxWorks-wdb file from the FTP server. The default IP address on the WARP is 192.168.10.2 4) Create a shortcut on your desktop that points to the art_mb31.bat file found in the folder where PC_Art.zip was unzipped. Clicking on this shortcut should start ART communicating with the 11b/g card. Note that the card defaults to '11g' mode and can be changed by following the instructions on the menu to toggle the mode. 5) Create another shortcut on your desktop that points to the art_mb23.bat file found in the folder where PC_Art.zip was unzipped. Clicking on this shortcut should start ART communicating with the 11a card. Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 10 of 15 3.2 Instruction to ART function After you getting into ART via art_mb23 (11a card), you can see the image as following : Press “c” to ‘Continuous transmit mode’ , then you can see the image as following : Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 11 of 15 All the function that ART can be done has shown on the image. The most basic function and it’s operating parameter are listed as following : 1) Press “P” to increase 5 MHz . Press “L” to decrease 5 MHz . Press “Shift + P” to increase 100 MHz . Press “Shift + L” to decrease 100 MHz . 2) Press “F” to increase output power 0.5 dBm . Press “C” to decrease output power 0.5 dBm . Press “Shift + F” to increase output power 5 dBm .

(Main or Aux) Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 12 of 15 5) About the antenna port parameter (p,n) , “p” is the parameter used to control the Main antenna port and “n” is the parameter used to control the Aux antenna port . The moment when you get into ‘Continuous transmit mode’, the default setting of (p,n) is (0,0) and the output port is the internal Main antenna port. Once you change the “p”, the relationship between (p,n) and antenna port will return to the normal setting . That is when “p(or n)” is 0 and 7, the path is switched to external antenna port, either Main or Aux. When “p(or n)” is 1 to 6, the path is switched to internal antenna port. (When you face to the side with 2 antenna port ,Ethernet port and power supply port of AP7215, the right antenna port is the Main port.) Press “Shift + { ” to increase “p” .(0~7) Press “Shift + } ” to decrease “p” .(0~7) Press “ { ” to increase “n” .(0~7) Press “ } ” to decrease “n” .(0~7) After you getting into ART via art_mb22 (11b/g card), all the function and it’s operating parameter are the same with 11a card, besides the switch of antenna and the change beween 11b or 11g mode.(11b/g card can only output the power from internal antenna port.) The change between 11b or 11g mode , please press “o”. Three variation will make a cycle, that is 11g, 11g OFDM and 11b mode. 3.3 Compliance test failure In case of compliance test failure (not meet required EIRP or emission mask, etc), it is possible to correct the radio parameters in real-time during regulatory lab testing. In this case, Foxconn technical person will be on-site to assist in such a case to tuned the required radio parameters and record the profile that passes the test. The corrected profile will be recorded for subsequent version control issuance of the radio firmware. 3.4 Regulatory testing priorities In the spirit of getting quickly the confidence level that the product is aimed at passing all regulatory rules, the followings shall be tested first: ‧ Test Access Link (2.4GHz) on edge channels (i.e CH1 and CH11 for FCC, CH1 and CH13 for ETSI) ‧ Concentrate initial testing on all edge channels in 5GHz band (FCC: U-NII, ISM, ETSI: 5500-5700MHz) Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 13 of 15 4 Appendix –A: PC Static IP Configuration To setup PC running Windows 2000 or up with static IP address configuration (192.168.10.1), the following steps are required: ‧ Right Click on Start, ‧ Point to “Settings”, “Network and Dial-up Connections”, and Right Click and select “Open” ‧ Double Click on the appropriate LAN connection, “Local Area Connection” ‧ Select “Properties” ‧ Double click on “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)” ‧ Select “Use the following IP address” and Enter o 192.168.10.1 for the IP address o 255.255.255.0 for the Subnet mask ‧ Select “OK “and close down the windows ‧ Select “Use the following IP address” and Enter o 192.168.10.1 for the IP address o 255.255.255.0 for the Subnet mask ‧ Select “OK “and close down the windows Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 14 of 15 ‧ ‧ ‧ ‧ ‧ Go to Network and Dial-up Connections window Right click on the Local Area Connection, Select Disable Right click on the Local Area Connection, Select Enable Version: 0.0 Foxconn Confidential Page 15 of 15 5 Appendix-B: ISO Country Codes The list below provides the target list of countries for product certification for phase 1 and phase 2 regulatory testing.
