  Important Regulatory Information  Cirronet Product FCC ID: HSW-ZN241 IC 4492A-ZN241  Note: This unit has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A  digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.  These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.  This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.  Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at their expense. Information to user/installer regarding FCC s Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits.   NOTE:   THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE CAUSED BY UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO THIS EQUIPMENT.  SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT.   FCC s MPE Requirements  Information to user/installer regarding FCC s Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits.  Notice to users/installers using the following mobile antennas, with Cirronet RF products:  ZN241 5 dBi and 2 dBi Omni Antennas   The field strength radiated by any one of these antennas, when connected to Cirronet RF products, may exceed FCC mandated RF exposure limits. FCC rules require professional installation of these antennas in such a way that the general public will not be closer than 20 cm from the radiating aperture of any of these antennas. End users of these systems must also be informed that RF exposure limits may be exceeded if personnel come closer than 20 cm to the apertures of any of these antennas.        Getting Started  The ZN241 Radio network is designed for Point of Service (POS) transactions.  The network consists of a server (ZN241-S) and many clients (ZN241-C).  Both models use the same hardware with different software.  One option for the server is two antenna outputs provided by a 2-way splitter with each output 3 dBm lower in RF power.  The ZN241 utilizes a Zigbee standard hardware module.  The software is Cirronet’s networking POS system.  The ZN241  has the following connections:  The antenna connector (RF) is located on the left side of the case, as shown above.   The RS232 and 6 Volt DC connection is on the right side of the case.
  Figure 1 --  ZN241/Hypercom System Block Diagram     Frequency Selection  The ZMN2400 is not frequency agile during run-time, but it can select an unoccupied portion of the spectrum at startup from among the choices programmed into the Channel Mask.  We believe the most likely source of interference would be from nearby 802.11b access points, which typically default to one of the following three channels:    802.11 Channel        Center Frequency (MHz)   Nominal Occupied BW     1          2412       2401-2423     6          2437       2426-2448   11          2462       2451-2473  ZigBee defines channel centers from 2405 to 2480 with 5 MHz spacing.  Our strategy is to balance between keeping the number of possible channels as few as possible (to minimize variation from power-up to power-up) and to avoid possible 802.11b interferers.  With this in mind, we can select three channels, one at 2480, completely above the three most common 802.11b channels, and two at the nulls between channels at 2425 and 2480:    ZigBee Channel        Center Frequency (MHz)   Nominal Occupied BW          15              2425        2422.5-2427.5         20              2450        2447.5-2452.5         26              2480        2477.5-2482.5  The channels in the 2.4 GHz band span from 11 to 26.  Only these channels are supported by the ZMN2400.
