FCC Compliance Information
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.
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:
-- 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.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
IMPORTANT: This device operates with a modular transmitter FCC ID: PII-
VSUB075. In order to comply with the FCC RF exposure requirements, this product
must be installed and operated in such a way that a minimum separation distance of 20
cm (approximately 8 inches) is maintained from the antenna to any persons. Operations
that do not meet these requirements must be avoided.
FCC Compliance Warning:
Changes or modifications to this product not expressly approved by Vantage
Controls could void the user’s authority to operate this product.
**All information on this page “FCC Compliance Information” shall be
supplied to the end user of any product the VSUB075 is incorporated into.
Introduction
The VSUB075 is an RF transceiver module. It interfaces with other
equipment using standard serial asynchronous communications protocol at a rate
between 9600 and 57600 baud. The transmitter has a peak output power of 140
milliwatts. It is designed to be incorporated into control devices developed by
Vantage Controls. The module operates under FCC approval in the 902-928
MHz ISM frequency band.
Integrating the VSUB075 Into Products
IMPORTANT: The VSUB075 radio has been certified by the FCC as a module
for integration into products without further certification being necessary (as per
FCC section 2.1091.) The following requirements must be satisfied in order to
comply with FCC regulations:
1) The system integrator must ensure that the external label provided with
this device is placed on the outside of the final product.
2) In order to comply with the FCC RF exposure requirements, the
VSUB075 may be used only with the antenna it was certified with (Vantage
Controls part number: VDA-0059), and a minimum separation distance of 20 cm
must be maintained from the antenna to any near by persons.
3) The VSUB075 radio requires a 8-12V DC 200mA supply.
