It is recommended that the host product manufacturer installing the modular transmitter perform some investigative measurements to
confirm that the resulting composite system does not exceed the spurious emissions limits or band edge limits (e.g., where a different
antenna may be causing additional emissions). Detailed information regarding test procedure are described in the relevant rule parts
(refer to Chapter “List of applicable rules”).
3.10 ADDITIONAL TESTING, PART 15 SUBPART B DISCLAIMER
TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts (i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant,
and 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. In addition, the final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with
TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M installed.
3.11 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M is available in two different versions: C0 and C1
Version C0 (SMT)
Version C1 (THT)
The version C0 is equipped with solder pads on both sides that enable to integrate (i.e. solder) the module directly onto the PCB or
host device using the SMT technology, whereas the pin connectors on the version C1 are suitable for THT mounting.
For both versions, the components are mounted only on one side of the module to allow an easy integration into the host device.

5INTEGRATOR AND HOST REQUIREMENTS
Authorization requirements
TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M has been certified as a module and does not need further approval, provided that the module:
•is used with antennas as specified in this manual; and
•is used in accordance with the FCC grant conditions and no limitations or usage conditions have been defined by ELATEC.
However, the host manufacturer must ensure that the host device still complies with all applicable regulations after
TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M has been integrated.
In particular, the host integrator installing TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M into their product must ensure that the final composite
product complies with the FCC requirements by a technical assessment or evaluation to the FCC rules, including the transmitter
operation and should refer to guidance in KDB 996369.
Labeling requirements
The FCC and IC identification numbers of TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M can be found in Chapter “Compliance Statements” of
the user manual and on the device packaging. After integration of TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M into the host device, it is
necessary to bring a label on the host device (on a visible and accessible place) stating the FCC and IC identification numbers of the
integrated TWN4 MultiTech Nano LEGIC 42 M:
Contains FCC ID: WP5TWN4F20
Contains IC: 7948A-TWN4F20
In case several modules have been integrated into the host device, the label should state all FCC and IC identification numbers of the
integrated modules.
Example:
“Contains FCC IDs: XXX-XXXXXXX, YYY-YYYYYYY, ZZZ-ZZZZZZZ”
“Contains transmitter modules IC: XXXXX-XXXXXX, YYYYY-YYYYYY, ZZZZZ-ZZZZZZ”
Compliance statements
All statements listed in Chapter “Compliance statements” of this integration manual must be also listed in the user manual of the host
device.
Special accessories
Where special accessories such as shielded cables and/or special connectors are required to comply with the emission limits, the
instruction manual shall include appropriate instructions on the first page of the text describing the installation of the device.
Simultaneous transmission
When the host product supports simultaneous-transmission operations the host manufacturer needs to check if there are additional
RF exposure filing requirements due to the simultaneous transmissions. When additional application filing for RF exposure compliance
demonstration is not required (e. g. the RF module in combination with all simultaneously operating transmitters complies with the RF
exposure simultaneous transmission SAR test exclusion requirements), the host manufacturer may do his own evaluation without any
filing, using reasonable engineering judgment and testing for confirming compliance with out-of-band, restricted band, and spurious
emission requirements in the simultaneous-transmission operating modes. If additional filing is required please contact the person at
ELATEC GmbH responsible for certification of the RF module.
