Step 3- Observing typical RSSI Values
a. With the Rx Dongle in Rx Bypass Mode, observe the RSSI of the dongle in Tx Bypass and Tx
High Power modes.
a. At a distance of 1m a passed unit will have an RSSI of -47 dBm +/- 3 dBm for a unit
when dongle is in Tx Bypass and an RSSI of -25 dBm +/- 3 dBm when the dongle is in
Tx High Power.
b. Now you are able to successfully send and receive wirelessly via ZigBee.
Regulatory Notices
NOTE: 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 when the equipment is operated in a residential environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, 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 or more of the following measures:
a. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
b. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
c. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
d. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Operation of this device 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 this device.
L’opѐration est soumise aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) cet appareil ne peut pas provoquer
d’interfѐrences et (2) cet apparial doit accepter toute interfѐrence, y compris les interfѐrences qui peuvent
causer un mauvis fonctionment de l’appareil.
Warning: changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate this equipment
The antennas used with this module must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from
all persons, and must not be co-located or transmit simultaneously with any other antenna or transmitter,
except in accordance with FCC multi transmitter product procedures.
The ISM2531-USB-F ZigBee Dongle has been designed to operate with the following antenna and gain.
Use with other antenna types or with these antenna types at higher gains is strictly prohibited.

The radio transmitter has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed above
with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated.
Antenna types not included in this list having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type,
are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
Cet ѐmetteur de radio a ѐtѐ approuvѐ par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d’antennes
ѐnumѐrѐes ci-dessus avec le gain maximal admissible et impѐdance d’antenna requise pour chaque type
d’antenne indiquѐ. Types d’antennes ne figurant pas dans cette liste, ayant un gain supѐrieur au gain
maximum indiquѐ pour ce type, sont strictement interdites pour l’utilisation avec cet appareil.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and
maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio
interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
Sous la rѐglementation d’Industrie Canada, ce transmetteur radio ne peut fonctionner en utilisant une
antenne d’un type et un maximum (ou moins) gain approuvѐes pour l’ѐmetteur par Industrie Canada. Pour
rѐduire le risqué d’interference aux autres utilisateures, le type d’antenne et son gain doivent être choisis de
maniѐre que la puissance isotrpe rayonnѐe ѐquivalente (PIRE) ne dѐpasse pas ce qui est nѐcessaire pour
une communication rѐussie.
