NOTE: a. Any changes or modification not approved by CAEN RFID could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. b. The Muon A528B Module, which is rated at 500 mW output, is approved for operation with the CAENRFID antenna Mod. WANTENNAX010 (Linear polarized 3dbi gain PIFA antenna for portable and desktop systems - 915 MHz). Use of other than the approved antenna with this unit may result in harmful interference with other users, and cause the unit to fail to meet regulatory requirements. The maximum allowed antenna gain to be used with A528B module is 3dBi. c. This transmitter module is authorized to be used in other devices only by OEM integrators under the following conditions: 1.The RFID Module antenna shall have a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons 2.The transmitter module must not be co-located with any other antenna or transmitter d. In case that the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be necessary. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing the end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). In the event that these conditions can not be met (for certain configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In such case the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. e. If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, the OEM integrator shall apply a label in a visible area on his product with the following statement: Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: UVECAENRFID016 or Contains FCC ID: UVECAENRFID016 f. The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module or change RF related parameters in the user manual of the end product.
