of document RSS-102. (Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure Compliance of Radio Communication Apparatus (All 
Frequency Bands)) 
Note for OEM: 
This transmitter module is authorized to be used in other devices only by OEM, 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

this RF module in the user manual of the end product. 
Information 
Device Information 
The non-contact sensor is a very low power Radio Frequency (RF) emitter.  The sensor has a maximum range of 
1.5m and is designed to measure the breathing and body movement of an adult within range.  If there are 2 
persons in the bed, the sensor is will measure the parameters of the nearer person. 
Device Placement 
The product should be placed on a bedside table on the same side of the bed as the user.  The height of the 
bedside table should ensure that there is a clear line of sight between the sensor and your upper chest when you 
are lying on the bed.  This is typically a table top height of level with the mattress to around 6” (15cm) above the 
mattress.  Do not place the product so that it has to “look” through the mattress at you: the springs in the mattress 
are likely to disrupt the RF beam.  The product should be placed on the bedside table such that it is within easy 
arm’s reach of your normal sleeping position.
