Introduction
The following equipment is discussed in this equipment manual;

Model DA120A Nielsen Audio PPM 360 Meter
Also referred to as the PPM G2 (Personal People Meter Generation 2)

Meter Accessory item:
Class 2 Power Supply Unit
This power supply can be directly connected to the Meter, or connected to the Cradle.
When the power supply is connected to the Cradle, the meter is placed into the Cradle in
order to recharge the Meter.

Meter Accessory item:
Adapter

Alternate equipment item:
Model HP110
Nielsen Audio PPM 360 Collector
The Models DA120A PPM 360™ Meter is a device that is worn or carried on a person, usually
by means of a belt clip. The PPM 360 Meter collects audio that is watermarked (also known
as “encoding”) with data information using Nielsen Audio’s patented Critical Band Encoding
Technology, and using cellular technology, forwards this information back to Nielsen Audio
data collection servers. The DA120A also determines if the person wearing the PPM 360
Meter, known as a “panelist”, is in his/her home or out of the home using an In-Home
Beacon. The Model DA120A use a headphone adapter accessory when the panelist is wearing
headphones to collect this data from MP3 or other audio devices that use headphones.
Charging of the Nielsen Audio Models DA120A PPM 360 Meter is performed by a Class 2
power unit with USB type connector, or alternatively by use of a cradle system which
interconnects between this same power unit and the meter. The cradle system uses the
same Class 2 power unit with USB type connector; however, the cradle is a nest where the
power from the class 2 power unit USB type connector is transferred to a set of spring pins
which contact with two charge contacts on the side of the Models DA120A meter when the
meter is placed in the cradle nest, thereby charging the meter. The cradle charging system is
also an accessory of the Models DA120A.
Figure 1 below illustrates the interactions of the Models DA120A device with the outside world
as well as with other components of the system overall. Note: The PPM 360 Collector is not
shown.

DA120A Main Functions
1. Data Embedded in Audio Data Acquisition: Audio collected and data decoded by the DSP
(Digital Signal Processor).
2. Motion data collected to determine panelist compliance and duplicate (multiple PPM)
carry.
3. Machine-to-Machine Data Transfer Function: Use only when a mobile phone SIM card is
installed, Machine-to-Machine Data Transfer function will collect the data set to the specified
server.
4. Bluetooth function with In-Home Beacon: The In-Home Beacon function has only a
search feature. It can only search for the In-Home Beacon Device ID and Bluetooth address.
The In-Home Beacon function does not support Bluetooth connectivity, data transmission or
other functions. In addition, meter Bluetooth cannot be searched.
5. The purpose of the alternate equipment PPM 360 Collector is to replace the meter
Machine-to-Machine Data Transfer cellular technology with an alternate data transfer
method, in areas where cellular technology is not available. The PPM 360 Collector is not
normally provided to a panelist. As of the time when this User Manual is written, the only
country where the PPM 360 Collector is provided is Canada. However, if the PPM 360
Collector is provided to a panelist, the specific PPM 360 Meter provided to the panelist is
specially configured by software to enable communication with the specific PPM 360
Collector provided to the panelist. In this case, Bluetooth connectivity, Bluetooth data
transmission and other Bluetooth functions are enabled between the PPM 360 Meter and the
specific PPM 360 Collector, and only between these two devices.

Proper Care and Handling

Please pay attention to all warning and caution labels.

For cleaning, use only a dry cloth—do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

Do not push objects of any kind into an opening.

Do not use attachments unless recommended by Nielsen Audio, Inc.

Once the beacons are plugged in, please do not move them unless recommended by
Nielsen

To prevent pinching of the power cord, do not walk on, bend sharply or push items
against the power cord.

Contact Nielsen to service your meter, charger, power cord, beacons, headphone
adapter or lanyard (“equipment”) under the following conditions:
1050-1762 Revision A

FCC Compliance Statement
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.
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 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.
• Contact Nielsen Audio, Inc. for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Nielsen Audio, Inc. could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.

Radio Frequency Exposure Information (SAR)
This equipment meets the U.S. government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. The
exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the specific
absorption rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg). Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the
device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device
while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base-station antenna, the lower the
power output.
The highest measured SAR value for this device when worn on the body as described in this
user guide is 1.139 W/kg. For SAR test,Body worn mode test distance is 5mm. Additional SAR
information for this device can be retrieved by accessing the FCC Equipment Authorization search
page at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ and entering the following; FCC ID: IGKDA120A depending
on the specific device model. The FCC ID for each device model is shown on the device equipment label.
For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with the belt-clip accessory provided by Nielsen Audio, Inc. Use of
other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
