2.0 User Guide Information
Electronic device manufacturers using Artaflex’s Modular Approval are required to place the below
text in their product user’s guide in accompaniment with other regulatory information.
The text may be disbursed according to language or geographic regions if desired, but the exact
text shown below must be maintained.
3.0 United States Regulatory FCC Modular Approval (MA)
The requirements for FCC Modular Approval were released in June 2000 in the FCC’s Public
Notice: FCC Public Notice DA 00-1407, Part 15 Unlicensed Modular Transmitter Approvals.
Design Criteria for Modular Approval
General Conditions:
The following conditions must be strictly adhered to for modular approval:
1. No modification to the module including the circuitry is permitted
2. Design criteria to include antenna, interconnects, and local oscillator
3. Testing of the final device configuration for Digital Emissions Compliance
The AW24MUFL may not be altered or modified in any way by the OEM or other integrator(s).
Additionally, no component(s) may be added which change the radio frequency (RF)
characteristics. These include unintentional or spurious emissions, immunity, ESD characteristics,
or other items commonly associated with RF devices. This includes all components; passive and
active (such as RF filters, RF amplifiers, RF switches, etc). Additionally, no RF components may
be placed between the RF output of the AW24MUFL and the antenna.
3.1 Antenna Regulation
The antenna has been qualified and approved for use under the Modular Approval certification.
The selected antenna is compatible with the RF impedance and frequency range of the
AW24MUFL.
The selected antenna has been specifically tested with the AW24MUFL, and has been certified
through the regulatory agencies in the US, Canada, and European Union for authorized use. Use
of a different antenna that does not meet the same parameters as used in the certification of the
AW24MUFL voids the MA grant for that AW24MUFL.
