2.2
Recommended Application Connections
Figure 1 shows the minimum circuit connections required for the ProFLEX01 module,
when programming/debugging with the MSP-FET430UIF USB debugging interface. The
LEDs and USER buttons are needed for Ping Pong Range Test built into the LSR
firmware. The LED’s are also used during normal operation, and flash to indicate module
status (UART activity, RF activity, and heartbeat).
The reset (nRESET) pin (14) is active low. On the ProFLEX01 module it is pulled high
with a 47kΩ resistor. To reset the module, pull the pin low to ground for at least 2μS.
This is necessary to ensure a proper reset of the module.
In order to wake the module from sleep mode, an additional input signal (WAKEUP) with
interrupt capability on the ProFLEX01 module needs to be used. For simplicity it is
recommended that this be connected to the Host UART RX signal. This connection is
shown in Figure 1 To wake the ProFLEX01 module out of sleep simply send a dummy
byte to the module. See Section Error! Reference source not found. for further
information on wakeup from sleep options.

Antenna Options and PCB Footprint
3.1
Footprint Overview
The footprint design on the carrier board will depend on the carrier board requirements,
desire for compatibility with other ModFLEX series modules, and the desired antenna.

U.FL Connector
3.2.1 Module Footprint
If using the U.FL connector with an external antenna, you do not need to hang the
module off the end of the carrier board or have a cut out in the carrier board. However if
concerned with compatibility with other LSR ModFLEX modules see section 3.4 for more
information.

3.2.2 Removal of U.FL connector
Care should be taken when mating or un-mating the U.FL plug from its receptacle as
they are designed (by the manufacturer Hirose) for a maximum of 30 cycles (in practice
probably anything more than five cycles is too much). The outer shell of the mating plug
can bend or deform easily and not make good electrical contact, thus degrading RF
performance - sometimes significantly.
Figure 4 U.FL connector
A special tool exists to safely remove the U.FL cable. LSR recommends the Hirose
Electronics tool, part number U.FL-LP(V)-N-2. See picture below for what the tool looks
like and how to use it.

Carrier Board Alignment Holes
The ModFLEX modules have two 0.032” diameter non-plated holes in the PCB that can
be used to align the module to the carrier board. When designing the carrier board it is
recommended to include two matching alignment holes with copper pads surrounding
the holes on the bottom side of the board. The purpose of the copper pads allows for
soldering alignment pins when the carrier board is used as an alignment fixture, which is
described in the following sections.

3.3.1 Constructing an alignment fixture
Any carrier board can be made into an alignment fixture. When using the carrier board
as an alignment fixture the alignment pins can be soldered to the bare carrier board to
prevent them from falling out. Then by adding standoffs to the bare carrier board you
have created an alignment fixture.
Figure 8 Alignment fixture overview
Step 1: Make an alignment fixture by soldering two Mill-Max 3120-2 series pins or
equivalent into the PCB being used for the alignment fixture. For spacing, use 1/8”
standoffs between this board and the target carrier board.
Figure 9 Constructing an alignment fixture
Step 2: Carefully place the target carrier board through the pins on the alignment fixture.

Compatibility
Not all ModFLEX modules have the same antenna options. To use the modules
interchangeably on a carrier board, the designs outlined below must be employed.
Option 1: The carrier board should be designed so the module overhangs the edge of
the board 0.23” as pictured below.
Figure 12
Option 2: Design an opening in the carrier board. A minimum opening is shown below.

Agency Statements
4.1
Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
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.
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.
FCC CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate this equipment.

4.2
Industry Canada Statements
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.
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 permitted for successful communication.
This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a
maximum gain of 2.0 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than
2.0 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is
50 ohms.

4.3
OEM Responsibilities to comply with FCC and Industry Canada
Regulations
The ProFLEX01 Module has been certified for integration into products only by OEM
integrators under the following conditions:
1. The antenna(s) must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm
is maintained between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times.
2. The transmitter module must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be
required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for
any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example,
digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met
(for certain configurations or co-location with another transmitter),
then the FCC and Industry Canada authorizations are no longer
considered valid and the FCC ID and IC Certification Number cannot
be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM
integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product
(including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC and
Industry Canada authorization.

End Product Labeling
The ProFLEX01 Module is labeled with its own FCC ID and IC Certification Number. If
the FCC ID and IC Certification Number are 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. In that case, the final end
product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
“Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: TFB-PROFLEX1”
“Contains Transmitter Module IC: 5969A-PROFLEX1”
or
“Contains FCC ID: TFB-PROFLEX1”
“Contains IC: 5969A-PROFLEX1”
The OEM of the ProFLEX01 Module must only use the approved antenna(s) listed
above, which have been certified with this module.
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.
The user manual for the end product must include the following information in a
prominent location:
To comply with FCC and Industry Canada RF radiation exposure limits for
general population, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be
installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained
between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times and must not
be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
