A document that can be used as a starting point in understanding the use of Short Range Devices (SRD) in
Europe is the European Radio Communications Committee (ERC) Recommendation 70-03 E, which can be
downloaded from the European Radio Communications Office (ERO) at: http://www.ero.dk/.

1.5 Australia
The Australia radio regulations do not provide a modular approval policy similar to the United States (FCC)
and Canada (IC). However, BM77 module RF transmitter test reports can be used in part to demonstrate
compliance in accordance with ACMA Radio communications “Short Range Devices” Standard 2004 (The
Short Range Devices standard calls up the AS/NZS 4268:2008 industry standard). The BM77 module test
reports can be used as part of the product certification and compliance folder. For more information on
the RF transmitter test reports, contact Microchip Technology Australia sales office.
To meet overall Australian final product compliance, the developer must construct a compliance folder
containing all relevant compliance test reports e.g. RF, EMC, electrical safety and DoC (Declaration of
Conformity) etc. It is the responsibility of the integrator to know what is required in the compliance folder
for ACMA compliance. All test reports are available on the BM78 product web page at
http://www.microchip.com. For more information on Australia compliance, refer to the Australian
Communications and Media Authority web site http://www.acma.gov.au/.

1.6 Japan
The BM78SPPS5MC2 module has received type certification and is labeled with its own technical
conformity mark and certification number as required to conform to the technical standards regulated by
the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) of Japan pursuant to the Radio Act of Japan.
Integration of this module into a final product does not require additional radio certification provided
installation instructions are followed and no modifications of the module are allowed. Additional testing
may be required:
• If the host product is subject to electrical appliance safety (for example, powered from an AC
mains), the host product may require Product Safety Electrical Appliance and Material (PSE)
