Industry Canada Statements
RSS-GEN 7.1.2 – Transmitter Antenna / Antenne de L'émetteur
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the
transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou
inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il
faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à
l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
This radio transmitter 7955A-MRF450 has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible
gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain
indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
Le présent émetteur radio 7955A-MRF450 a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d'antenne énumérés ci-dessous et ayant un
gain admissible maximal et l'impédance requise pour chaque type d'antenne. Les types d'antenne non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est supérieur au
gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour l'exploitation de l'émetteur.

RSS-GEN 7.1.3 – Notice / Délai
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux
conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si
le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.

1.0 Introduction
The MRF450 radio module is an RF modem. The module consists of a Silicon Labs RF
transceiver coupled with a 32-bit Atmel ARM processor. The module is intended to be
integrated into Cervis product, providing RF connectivity while hiding the complexity of RF
communications and link management.
The radio is designed to operate in the 450 – 470 MHz band with a maximum output power of
less than 15 dBm. The radio can operate on any center frequency in the band with a resolution
of 1 kHz. The center frequency is fixed for the duration of operation. The radio utilizes 2(G)FSK
modulation in a 12.5 kHz channel bandwidth.
1.1 Features
FCC Part 90.217 Certified 12 kbps Data Rate
12.5 kHz Selectable Channel SPI or UART Communications
450–470MHz Operation Simple Packet-Based Protocol
Up to 14dBm Output Power Status LEDs

2.0 Installation
When integrating this module into a host, the user must provide all text in the “FCC Statements”
and “Industry Canada Statements” into the host device’s user manual (see Forward Material).
The text must not be modified in any way and presented in a conspicuous manner that the end
user can be reasonably expected to access.
The module is provided with an RF adapter cable and antenna. The RF adapter cable converts
MCX to RP-TNC plug. The connector on the antenna is an RP-TNC jack. Please see section
entitled “FCC Statements” for notice concerning these special accessories.
Install the RF adapter cable by plugging the MCX plug into the MCX jack on the module (RFE2).
Affix the RP-TNC end of the adapter cable to the housing of the host device utilizing the keyed
housing and locking nut. Finally, install the antenna onto the RP-TNC end of the adapter.
3.0 Tune-up Procedure
This module does not require any special tune-up procedure by the user. This module utilizes
advanced system-on-chip (SOC) technology. The SOC is tuned by the foundry at time of
manufacture and is not subject to change or adjustment. The module contains no adjustable
components.
Proper RF operation of the module is verified during the manufacturing process using suitable
equipment and methods. The manufacturer has performed a tuning process according to the
SOC design guidelines.
