MOD190 TRANSCEIVER 2DESCRIPTION The MOD190 is a frequency hopping spread spectrum transceiver module designed to be compatible with US (FCC Part 15.247) and Canadian (RSS-247) regulations for license free use in the 900 MHz ISM band. The MOD190 is designed for mobile applications in accordance to Part 2.1091(b). The MOD190 transceiver is only integrated into Kar-Tech remote control products by Kar-Tech, at Kar-Tech. There are no user serviceable parts on the MOD190 transceiver. The MOD190 is not designed for multiple antenna applications and should not be used to transmit simultaneously with any other transmitter. OPERATION The MOD190 is a radio transceiver module for the 900 MHz ISM bands. The transceiver microcontroller includes a CPU, GPI/O, a fully integrated frequency synthesizer, a power amplifier, a modulator and a receiver unit. The MOD190 microcontroller serial port is connected to the host via protection circuits. The data is sent through a serial port to RF processor and then to RF circuit to the antenna and the data received from antenna is sent to the serial port and to the host. The microcontroller is responsible for the control of the entire communication. The MOD190 transceiver contains a DC regulator which generates a constant 1.8 VDC for the digital circuitry. The RF section runs on the 3.3V supply.
MOD190 TRANSCEIVER 3 The MOD190 hops on 50 channel frequencies that are selected in a pseudo random order. An example of the order is: {48, 25, 17, 20, 41, 37, 36, 10, 15, 44, 30, 6, 42, 33, 5, 8, 28, 1, 23, 49, 16, 3, 19, 29, 21, 43, 31, 9, 18, 27, 22, 45, 13, 2, 32, 11, 14, 46, 12, 24, 4, 7, 38, 47, 35, 40, 50, 34, 39, 26} where Channel 1 is 902.5 MHZ and Channel 50 is 927.00 MHZ. The dwell time of the hopping is 350ms. Each channel is used equally on average. The receivers are matched to the transmitters to use the same hopping channel sequence and they hop channels in synchronization with the transmitter’s signals.
MOD190 TRANSCEIVER 4INSTALLATION 1) Solder the MOD190 transceiver directly to the host’s compatible connector. 2) Print and attach the label as shown below: 3) Place a label on the outside of the host enclosure in a visible area. On the label, include the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: P4U-MOD190” and “Contains Transmitter Module IC: 4534A-MOD190” 4) Connect the appropriate antenna. Either a ¼ wavelength wire, or a RPSMA ¼ wavelength antenna.
MOD190 TRANSCEIVER 5Application Requirements: A) Power the MOD190 Transceiver with 3.3VDC nominal voltage, with peak current draw of 750mA. B) Do not remove the shield on the MOD190. C) If you use something other than the ¼ wave antenna or the wire antenna, the unit needs separate approval. D) The antenna should be mounted at least 20cm from all persons, and must not transmit simultaneously with any other antenna or transmitter, except in accordance with FCC multi transmitter product procedures. E) The MOD190 is to be installed only in mobile applications. See Part 2.1091 for definitions of mobile and fixed applications. F) Do not operate the MOD190 without an antenna. G) Documentations: In the host’s User Manual include the following: a. That there are no user serviceable parts in the radio modules. They should not remove or install radio modules. b. The “Instructions To The User” section. c. The “Industry Canada Statement”. d. Include in the manual, “This device is granted for use in Mobile only configurations in which the antennas used for this
MOD190 TRANSCEIVER 6transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20cm from all person and not be co-located with any other transmitters except in accordance with FCC and Industry Canada multi-transmitter product procedures.” BEFORE APPLYING POWER!  Check power and ground for proper polarity.  Read the rest of this manual. TROUBLESHOOTING There are no user serviceable parts in the MOD190 Transceiver. Contact your KAR-TECH representative for further instructions or servicing.

MOD190 TRANSCEIVER 10INSTRUCTION TO THE USER 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. 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 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 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: --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.
