The module operates according to the IEEE 802.15.4 specification and can be configured to minimize the possibility of interference with other devices. The module receives RF signals from one or more Crestron INET devices and can transmit these signals over the air or over a cable run for further processing (depending on the application). Functional Summary The transceiver produces a 100 milliwatt signal that can travel up to approximately 150 feet indoors. The range is dependent on the construction of the building, obstructions, and RF interference from other devices. Adding more modules will increase the range of transmission. The location of the module and the orientation of its antenna are also important factors in determining RF performance.

The location of the module and the orientation of the antenna are important factors in the RF performance. The range is dependent on its placement and the building in which it is used. The construction of the building, obstructions, and RF interference from other devices are factors determining the effective range of the unit. To prevent unit-to-unit RF interference, multiple modules operating at the same frequencies should not be installed within 3-5 feet of each other. Physical Description The module, shown below, consists of various components attached to a printed circuit board. A chip antenna port is located at the right edge of the circuit board, while a 38-pin interface is located on the edges of the circuit board. Physical View of CWD1016

Industry Compliance Labeling Requirements If the FCC ID on the CWD1016 is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: EROCWD1016” or “Contains FCC ID: EROCWD1016.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. Compliance Statement (Part 15.19 ) This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two 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. Warning (Part 15.21 ) Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. RF Exposure (OET Bulletin 65 ) To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices, this transmitter should only be used or installed at locations where there is at least 20 cm separation distance between the antenna and all persons. This device must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter within the host device it is installed into. Industry Canada Statement Section 7.1.5 of RSS-GEN 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. OEM Integration : OEM Responsibility to the FCC Rules and Regulations The CWD1016 Module has been certified per FCC Part 15 rules for integration into products without further testing or certification. To fulfill the FCC certification requirements the OEM of the CWD1016 Module must ensure that the information provided on the CWD1016 label is placed on the outside of the final product. The CWD1016 Module is labeled with its own FCC ID Number. If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording such as the following:

The OEM of the CWD1016 Module must test their final product configuration to comply with Unintentional Radiator Limits before declaring FCC compliance per Part 15 of the FCC rules. IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for reevaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. Setup Hardware Hookup Refer to the /I-O Pinout Signals table which shows the connections made to the module. NOTE: To prevent unit-to-unit RF interference, multiple modules operating at the same frequencies should not be installed within three to five feet of each other. Antenna The module is provided with an internal antenna. Mounting The module has an edge connector for surface mounting to a printed circuit board (PCB). End Product Labeling The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID: EROCWD1016 . Documentation The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the users manual of the end product which integrate this module. The users manual for OEM integrators must include the following information in a prominent location
