to comply with these guidelines.
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.
Instructions concerning human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields:
To comply with FCC Section 1.307 (b) (1) for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic fields, implement the following instruction:
A distance of at least 20cm. between the equipment and all persons should be maintained
during the operation of the equipment. The minimum distance will be determined after testing
has been completed.
This document is confidential and proprietary. No part of this document may be reproduced,
stored, or transmitted in any form or by any means without prior written permission from
Precyse technologies Inc.
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."

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 18dBm output power,
duty cycle (9.6%) with power amplifier enabled.
Normal duty cycle, assuming worst case, one event per second is less than 0.5% (5mSec
transmit time per 1 second).

Theory of operation
The SAT method of communication is synchronized event based reporting. Event could be GPS
location, motion start and stop, PBC found and which one. Once it’s connected to car battery the
SAT spends most of its time in low power sleep mode. 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.
