FCC and Industry Canada Compliance
The radio module is manufactured directly onto the meter main circuit board, and the module is inserted into the electronic housing of the meter at
manufacture. It has no user serviceable parts. For the most current REXUniversal meter compliance information, see PG42-1060.
User Information (Part 15.105): This equipment has been tes ted and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver
• connect the equipment into an ou tlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected
• consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
If you experience trouble with this equipment, please use the Return Material Authorization (RMA) feature available at the Online Customer Services
at www.elstersolutions.com. Do not attempt to repair this equipment yourself unless you are replacing the entire module.
Compliance Statement (FCC Part 15.19 and Industry Canada): This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Industry Canada
licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Énoncé de Conformité: Cet appareil est conforme à la Partie 15 des règles de la FCC et aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils
radio exempts de licence. L'utilisation de cet appareil est soumise aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) Cet appareil ne doit pas provoquer
d'interférences nocives et (2) cet appareil doit accepter toutes les interférences reçues notamment celles pouvant provoquer un fonctionnement
intempestif de l'appareil.
Antenna Compliance: 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 sor te que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité
nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
REX2 meter: This radio transmitter 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.
REX2 meter: Le présent émetteur radio 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 d e l'émetteur.
• PCTEL (MAXRAD) MFB9150 unity gain Fiberglass omnidirectional: 2.15 dBi
• PCTEL (MAXRAD) MFB9153 3dB Fiberglass omnidirectional: 5.15 dBi
• Antenex TRA9023P(NP) (white body) or Antenex TRAB9023P(NP) (black body): 3 dBi
REXUniversal: This radio transmitter has been approved by Industr y 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.
REXUniversal: Le présent émetteur radio a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d'antenne énumérés ci-dessous et ayant

supérieur au gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour l'exploitation d e l'émetteur.
• On Board Printed 900 MHz Slot Antenna: 4.1 dBi
• On Board Printed 2.4 GHz PIFA Antenna: 3.8 dBi
Warning (Part 15.21): Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Elster could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
RF Radiation Safety Guidelines: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
equipment should be installed and operated to provide a separation distance of at least 28 cm from all persons.
Directives de Sécurité de Radiofréquence: Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d'exposition aux radiations définies par la Commission Fédéral
des Communications (FCC) pour un environnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé à une distance d'au moins 28 cm de
séparation de toutes personnes
Collocation Statement: This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Déclaration de Co-localisation: Cet émetteur ne doit pas être co-localisé ou opérant en conjonction avec aucune autre antenne ou transmetteur.
