User’s Manual AW900mT Continued from Page 2 SUs that have not yet received a network key boot up in “key exchange mode” and wait to receive a key. SUs that have received a network key will boot up for 5 seconds in “key exchange mode” and will look to see if a new AP is present. If a new AP is present, then the SU exchanges keys with the AP, otherwise the SU begins normal operation after the 5 seconds.
AW900mT User’s Manual LED display Initial setup 1) Select the module that will operate as the access point (AP) and set DIP switch 1 ON to enable AP operation. 2) Plug in the access point. n — The LINK QUALITY LEDs will blink sequentially showing that the module is hunting for a subscriber unit (SU) to share keys — with. 3) Plug in a subscriber unit. n — The LINK QUALITY LEDs will blink sequentially showing the module is hunting for an AP to supply a network key.
User’s Manual AW900mT To add NEW subscriber units to the access point 1) Disconnect the AP from the network and disconnect power from the AP. 2) Connect an Ethernet cable from the AP to the SU (key exchange will not work through a switch or hub — crossover cables are not required). 3) Plug in the NEW SU, then plug in the AP. The units will automatically exchange keys over the Ethernet cable. 4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all SUs are successfully programmed.

User’s Manual AW900mT Appendix A — Agency certifications FCC Certification The AW900mT OEM RF Module complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules and regulations. Compliance with labeling requirements, FCC notices and antenna regulations is required. Labeling Requirements In order to inherit AvaLAN’s FCC Certification, compliance requires the following be stated on the device: Figure 1.
FCC-Approved Antennas (900 MHz) Fixed base station and mobile applications AvaLAN Modules are pre-FCC approved for use in fixed base station and mobile applications. When the antenna is mounted at least 20 cm (8”) from nearby persons, the application is considered a mobile application. Portable applications and SAR testing When the antenna is mounted closer than 20 cm to nearby persons, then the application is considered “portable” and requires an additional test be performed on the final product.
