Sensor RF module 2AA (US) User Manual
1. Installation and use of the module
The Sensor RF module 2AA (US) shall be used only in internal Disruptive Technologies
products and is mounted inside the products during manufacturing according to a
manufacturing flow developed and maintained by Disruptive Technologies engineers. A simple
installation guide is given for reference only.
2. General description
The Sensor RF module 2AA (US), with part number 102540, is designed to support the
proprietary Disruptive Technologies RF protocol, Secure Data Shot (SDS). The module shall be
used in products for establishing an RF link with SDS enabled gateways.
The Sensor RF module 2AA (US) contains one radio IC and an internal PCB antenna together
with a digital interface that is meant to be used for connecting various digital sensing elements
or modules. Details can be found in the “Block Diagram” section in this document.
Additionally, the module supports power management circuitry to allow the device to be
powered from batteries and be isolated from the variation in battery voltage. The typical power
supply is two AA batteries.
3. Compliance Statement
The FCC and Industry Canada statements as printed below apply to the Sensor RF module
2AA (US).
The FCC and Industry Canada statements must be included in the user manual of any host
product incorporating the module and both must be printed on the host product exterior if it is
