2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The IP-Bridge is a communication module whose purpose is to forward and/or repeat wireless messages
between control devices (referred to as endpoints). IP-Bridge can transmit and receive wireless messages
on two 400 MHz on-board radios. It can also transmit and receive IP packets over an Ethernet port. The
Ethernet port is intended to connect the IP-Bridge to a 2.4/5.8 GHz router which uses Wi-Fi to
communicate with other router-connected IP-Bridges. The IP-Bridge's main function is to push
messages received on the 400 MHz radio(s) to the Wi-Fi network via the Ethernet port, and push
messages received from the Wi-Fi network to the 400 MHz radios. In this way it functions as a 'bridge'
between the 400 MHz and 2.4/5.8 GHz wireless networks.
In addition to communicating with an off-board router, IP-Bridge can also power the connected router
with a 12VDC regulated supply on connector X3. IP-Bridge is powered with +12VDC on connector X2.
IP-Bridge can also connect to an off-board Hetronic GNSS board. IP-Bridge powers and communicates
with the GNSS board over connector GPS. IP-Bridge's two 400 MHz on-board radios are designated
RF1 and RF2, and communicate wirelessly via connector ANT1 and ANT2, respectively. RF1 and RF2
are functionally equivalent to the Hetronic CSM-400UE radio module. IP-Bridge also powers and
controls optional external amplifiers for both RF1 and RF2 over connectors RF1SW and RF2SW. The
external amplifier choices are restricted to Hetronic PA-1 or Hetronic HPA-1. Finally, IP-Bridge has a
number of external LED indicators to display operation, Ethernet activity, 400 MHz RF activity, and
error states. The external LED indicators are driven via connector X1. IP-Bridge has a USB connector
for H-Link configuration and calibration.
There are no user-configurable options. All configuration is done by Hetronic at production time.

6. COMPLIANCE STATEMENTS
6.1.
FCC Interference Statement (Part 15.105 (b))
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.
6.2.
FCC Part 15 Clause 15.21
“Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment”
6.3.
FCC Part 15.19(a)
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.
6.4.
ISED RSS-Gen Notice:
(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.
1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage; 2) l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage
radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.“
