Safety Information
1.1 FCC Guidelines
This equipment is for use by developers for evaluation purposes only and must not be incorporated into
any other device or system. This device may not be sold to the general public. Integrators will be
responsible for reevaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC
authorization.
FCC approval of this device only covers the original configuration of this device as supplied. Any
modifications to this product, including changes shown in this manual, may violate the rules of the Federal
Communications Commission and Industry Canada and make operation of the product unlawful.
1.2 FCC Labeling
FCC labels are physically located on the plastic housing.
1.2.1 47 C.F.R. Sec. 15.21
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. 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 receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

1.2.2 47 C.F.R. Sec.15.105(b)
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.
The antenna(s) used for this equipment must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 8
inches (20cm) from all persons.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following three
conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference.
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
3. This device is susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and surge phenomenon.
1.2.3 47 C.F.R. Sec.15.203
An intentional radiator shall be designed to ensure that no antenna other than that furnished by the
responsible party shall be used with the device. The use of a permanently attached antenna or of an
antenna that uses a unique coupling to the intentional radiator shall be considered sufficient to comply with
the provisions of this Section. The manufacturer may design the unit so that a broken antenna can be
replaced by the user, but the use of a standard antenna jack or electrical connector is prohibited. This
requirement does not apply to carrier current devices or to devices operated under the provisions of
Sections 15.211, 15.213, 15.217, 15.219, or 15.221. Further, this requirement does not apply to intentional
radiators that must be professionally installed, such as perimeter protection systems and some field
disturbance sensors, or to other intentional radiators which, in accordance with Section 15.31(d), must be
measured at the installation site. However, the installer shall be responsible for ensuring that the proper
antenna is employed so that the limits in this Part are not exceeded.
1.3 Regulatory Approval For Canada
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003 and RSS 210, Issue 7.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
1.4 Disposal Instructions

1322x USB Dongle Overview
2.1 Introduction
The 1322x USB Dongle is an IEEE 802.15.4 compliant wireless node based on the Freescale MC1322x
device. The heart of the 1322x USB module is Freescale’s MC1322x 99-pin LGA Platform-in-Package
(PiP) solution that can be used for wireless applications ranging from simple proprietary point-to-point
connectivity to complete ZigBee mesh networking. The MC1322x is designed to provide a highly
integrated, total solution, with premier processing capabilities and very low power consumption.
The 1322x USB Dongle provides a platform to evaluate the MC1322x device, develop software and
applications, and demonstrate IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee networking capabilities. The dongle connects
the core device to a personal computer (PC) through a USB port, UART port interface device. The small
form factor illustrates an extremely small footprint, 4-layer printed circuit board (PCB) layout with a chip
antenna. The MC1322x node typically interfaces to the PC through a virtual COM port (VCM).
As initially provided from Freescale, the dongle is loaded with a software application that implements a
wireless “sniffer” to monitor over-the-air IEEE 802.15.4 traffic.

2.2 Available Devices
The MC1322x family is available as two part numbers. These device types differ only in their ROM
contents, all other device hardware, performance, and specifications are identical:
• MC13224V - this is the original version and is the generic part type. It is intended for most IEEE
802.15.4 applications including MAC-based, ZigBee-2007 Profile 1, and ZigBee RF4CE targets.
• MC13226V - this is a more recent version and is intended specifically for ZigBee-2007 Profile 2
(Pro) applications. Only the onboard ROM image has been changed to optimize ROM usage for
the ZigBee Pro profile and maximize the amount of available RAM for application use -
— The IEEE MAC/PHY functionality has been streamlined to include only that functionality
required by the ZigBee specification. The MAC functionality is 802.15.4 compatible.
— Certain drivers present in the MC13224 ROM have been removed including the ADC,
LCD_font, and SSI drivers. These drivers are still available as library functions, but now
compile into the RAM space.
— The Low Level Component (LLC) functionality has also been streamlined for the ZigBee
specification
NOTE
The MC13226 USB dongles will be marked as MC13226 USB.
2.3 Features
The 1322x USB Dongle provides the following features:
• Full IEEE 802.15.4 compliant wireless node; ZigBee capable with Freescale’s BeeStack software
