This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2.
This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
FCC USA un-intentional radiator compliance statement
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.

Compliance Statement Canada
Déclaration de Conformité
Under Innovation, Science and
Economic Development Canada
(ISED) regulations, this radio
transmitter may only operate using an
antenna of a type and maximum (or
lesser) gain approved for the
transmitter by Innovation, Science and
Economic Development Canada. To
reduce potential radio interference to
other users, the antenna type and its
gain should be so chosen that the
equivalent isotropically radiated power
(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
necessary for successful
communication.
Conformément à la réglementation
d'Industrie Canada, le présent
émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec
une antenne d'un type et d'un gain
maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour
l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans
le but de réduire les risques de
brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention
des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le
type d'antenne et son gain de sorte
que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas
l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement
d'une communication satisfaisante

Installation and Operation
Applying Power
The FCT receives it power to operate via the 5 V DC on the attached USB-A cable.
Plug the USB-A connector into the controller, laptop, tablet, etc. that will be used.
There is no indicator on the FCT, when the appropriate apps on the controller are
run, they will indicate if the FCT is communicating.
Operation:
• Attach FCT USB cable to an open port on the laptop/tablet/controller
• Start the Itron application that uses the FCT (NIFT or other tool)
• Using the appropriate application menu connect to the attached FCT
• Perform tasks as appropriate for the application in use.
• When tasks are complete disconnect FCT in the Application, disconnect
the USB cable from the controller and store the FCT.
Performance
For best performance hold the FCT in an upright/vertical orientation and clear of
obstacles in the direction of the intended utility endpoint.
