The FCC Wants You to Know
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:
a) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
b) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
c) Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
d) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
FCC Warning
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could
void the user authority to operate the equipment under FCC
Rules.

System test configuration
SAT
The unit tested was configured with all hardware options present. Since the unit, under its
normal operation, does not transmit data periodically, for emissions measurements, the SAT
was programmed with special test software to transmit packets continuously at 22.8dBm
output power, duty cycle (67.7%) with power amplifier enabled for FCC test requirement
only.
Normal operation duty cycle, assuming worst case, one event per second is less than
0.5% (5mSec transmit time per 1 second).
Installation diagram
The SA91/004023 should be connected to car battery using cable described in figure 3
(optional: through 1A fuse) and mounted on external part of the vehicle e.g. hood or grille.
This equipment has been approved for mobile applications where the equipment
should be used at distances greater than 20cm from the human body (with the
exception of hands, wrists, feet and ankles). Operation at distances less than 20 cm
is strictly prohibited.

Theory of operation
The SAT method of communication is synchronized event based reporting, the SAT spends
most of its time in low power sleep mode. Event could be GPS location, motion start and stop,
PBC found and which one. When an event happens, the SAT sends a report to the base
station. In order to avoid packet collisions and associated detection methods, the system uses
a synchronous protocol, that is, An SAT can transmit data only after receiving a
synchronization signal from the base station.

Unit definitions:
Base station, referred to as PBS: A radio device that transmits data to and from the tag (SAT)
to a personal computer (PC), also provides synchronization signal. The unit is powered by a
DC power supply.
Beacon, referred to as PBC: A radio device that defines a location. Location detection can be
realized through one or more PBCs. The unit is powered by a DC power supply.
Tag (SAT): A radio device that is used to track and monitor assets. It communicates with the
PBS and can detect the PBC signals.
