FCC Notices
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
AG-Star has been tested and found to comply with the emission limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
part 15 of the FCC Rules. The Class B 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:
• Re-orient or relocate the AG-Star
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the AG-Star
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the AG-Star is connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

In order to maintain compliance as a Class "B" digital device, shielded cables should be used
for the RS-232 serial data ports (Belden 1036A or equivalent) and twisted pair cable should be
used for the CAN port (shielded twisted pair will improve CAN performance in electrically harsh
environments). I/O signals should be referred to signal ground (connector pin 5) and not power
ground (connector pin 9). If I/O signals route to different areas of the vehicle, dedicated signal
grounds for I/O should be spliced into a common connection to connector pin 5 at a point close
to the AG-Star.
AG-Star with Bluetooth has been certified for use by the FCC and is labeled with the following identifier:
