1) Compatibility
2.4GHz Band ONLY
2) FCC Notice to OEM
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.
CAUTION:
Changes or modifications to this unit not
expressly approved by Roost, Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate
this equipment.
Note: 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:
1.
Reorient the Roost Smart Monitor
2. Consult getroost.com/support for help
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with the FCC radiation exposure limit set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20cm between
radiator and your body.
OEM Warning
:
The modular transmitter must be equipped with either a permanently affixed label or must
be capable of electronically displaying its FCC identification number – FCC ID: 2AE5A-RSW200. If the FCC
identification number is 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. This
exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: 2AE5A-
RSW200.” Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either
provide such a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization,
or, must provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter
case, a copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization.
3) ISEDC Notice
This device complies with Innovation, Science, and Economic Development Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference.
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
Cet appareil est conforme à Industrie Canada une licence standard RSS exonérés (s). Son fonctionnement est soumis aux
deux conditions suivantes:
Cet appareil ne doit pas provoquer d’interférences
Cet appareil doit accepter toute interference recue, y compris les interferences pouvant provoquer un functionnement
indésirable de l’appareil..
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with the IC RSS-102 radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the
radiator and your body.
Enonće d’exposition aux ravonnements:
Cet équipment est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements ioniques
RSS-102 Pour un environnement incontrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé avec un Distance minimale de 20 cm
entre le radiateur votre corps.
OEM Warning
:
The modular transmitter must be equipped with either a permanently affixed label or must
be capable of electronically displaying its ISEDC identification number – IC: 20891-RSW200. If the ISEDC
identification number is 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. This
exterior label can use wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module IC: 20891-RSW200.”
Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used. The Grantee may either provide such
a label, an example of which must be included in the application for equipment authorization, or, must
provide adequate instructions along with the module which explain this requirement. In the latter case, a
copy of these instructions must be included in the application for equipment authorization.
4) Safety Information
WARNING: Do not expose this Roost RSW-200 transmitter module
to excessive heat, direct sunlight, or fire. Do
not
expose to excessive humidity, rain,
moisture or other liquids. Store at room temperature between 40 and 80
degrees F for best results.
WARNING: Keep out of reach of children. Ingestion hazard. Harmful if swallowed.
5) Disposal Information
The Roost RSW-200 Transmitter Module Must be Recycled or Disposed of Properly.
When the Roost RSW-200 Transmitter module is no longer
functional, please dispose of it
properly, following
the
guidelines in accordance with applicable
regulations for your country. In most countries,
electronic printed circuit boards
must be recycled.
6) No Lifesaving Uses of the Services
The
Roost RSW-200 Transmitter module
, Monitor app (including mobile and web applications), the Smart Monitor device,
and the Smart Monitor software may be collectively referred to as the “Services”.
The Roost Smart Monitor APP is not an
alarm. The apps and device software are intended to be
accessed and used for non-critical information
and control of
the smart Monitor hardware. You will not
rely on the Services for any health, lifesaving,
or emergency purposes.
Under no circumstances should you enter into a life-
threatening environment. The Services (on their own or in
combination with third-party
products or services) are not a third-party
monitored emergency notification system
and
are not certified for emergency response.
Roost will not dispatch emergency authorities
to your home in the
event of an emergency

8) HW Integration of the Roost RSW-200 Transmitter Module into OEM product
The RSW-200 Transmitter Module is meant for Internet of Things applications.
The module interface connector requires a land pattern on the motherboard PCB. Two mounting holes are provided
in the PCB for either plastic screws, or plastic weld studs.
As good practice with all radio PCBs,, it is expected the mother board holding the RSW-200 Transmitter Module will
have, at a minimum, a continuous ground plane in the area directly beneath and outlining the RSW-200 Transmitter.
This ground plane can be on the top, bottom, or internal layers and should be connected to the RSW-200 interface
connector ground terminal.
The RSW-200 Transmitter Module is expected to be in an RF inert plastic housing for the OEM end product.
o
The transmitter module was certified without any housing, but any RF losses in the plastic housing material
will reduce emissions (wanted and unwanted), and reduce sensitivity.
o
The product has limited Electrostatic protection, particularly on the antennae input
