Gridstream RF, Series 5, I210+c Integration Manual Introduction Gridstream RF, Series 5, I210+c is the model name for the Landisgyr+Gyr communication module designed for the Aclara I-210+c meter. The module will be referred to as I210+c module in this document for short. The I210+c module contains two radios, a Zigbee radio and a Sub-GHz radio. The Zigbee radio on the I210+c module is certified for modular approval. The Sub-GHz radio is the S5-MCMO module.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Compliance Notice This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. 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 maycause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
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.
