2.9 Information on test modes and additional testing requirements
Additional guidance for testing host products is given in KDB Publication 996369 D04 Module
Integration Guide. Test modes should take into consideration different operational conditions for a
stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, as well as for multiple simultaneously transmitting modules
or other transmitters in a host product.
The grantee should provide information on how to configure test modes for host product evaluation for
different operational conditions for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, versus with multiple,
simultaneously transmitting modules or other transmitters in a host.
Grantees can increase the utility of their modular transmitters by providing special means, modes, or
instructions that simulates or characterizes a connection by enabling a transmitter. This can greatly
simplify a host manufacturer’s determination that a module as installed in a host complies with FCC
requirements.
2.10 Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer
The grantee should include a statement that the modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the
specific rule parts (i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant, and that the host product
manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered
by the modular transmitter grant of certification. If the grantee markets their product as being Part 15
Subpart B compliant (when it also contains unintentional-radiator digital circuity), then the grantee shall
provide a notice stating that the final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing
with the modular transmitter installed.
