Scope of this document is to present the features and the application of the Telit ME70-169

radio modules (ME70-169).

1.2. ME70-169 Product Description

The ME70-169 module is a multi-channel radio board, delivering up to 1W in the 169 MHz

ISM band (unlicensed frequency band). The module is provided with a UART interface for

serial communication and –configuration and one RF output pin.

It is delivered with preloaded protocol stack:

•ME70-169: “Wireless M-Bus Part 4 Mode N” Protocol stack.

ME70-169 is fully compatible with low power version ME50-169.

ME70-169 is pin-to-pin compatible with LE, NE and ME modules working at different

frequencies. ME70-169 is also pin-to-pin compatible with Telit ZE Family (ZigBee PRO

stack).

2. Regulatory Conformance Information

The module radio transmitter operations must be compliant with some regulatory

requirements in terms of frequency bands and emitted power, as detailed below.

2.1. 169 MHz band Requirements

The “ERC recommendation 70-03 Annex 2” describes the 169 MHz license free band for

meter reading, in terms of bandwidth, maximum power, duty cycle and channel spacing. It

gives the following limitations:

ERC recommendation 70-03

Band Frequency band

(MHz) Maximum

radiated power

(mW)

Channel spacing

(kHz) Duty cycle

(%)

2b 169.4 – 169.475 500 Max 50 khz 10

These bands are free to use but the module and the user must respect some limitations. Most

of these restrictions are integrated in the conception of the module, except the duty cycle. For

example, the 2b band is limited to a 10% duty cycle. This means that each module is limited

to a total transmit time of 6 minutes per hour. It is the responsibility of the user to respect the

duty cycle.

National Restrictions for non specific SR devices Annex 2 band B:
