ISED has published RSS-Gen Issue 5, concerning the\u00a0General Requirements for Compliance of Radio Apparatus.<\/p>\n

From the ISED website the changes are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. New section 1.1 adds a provision for a transition period regarding RSS-Gen.<\/li>\n
  2. New section 2.5 adds a provision for a transition period regarding applicable RSSs.<\/li>\n
  3. Section 2.7.1 adds the requirement for certified devices to be listed in the radio equipment list (REL) before they can be leased, offered for sale, or sold.<\/li>\n
  4. New section 2.8 adds a provision for radio apparatus used for demonstration purposes.<\/li>\n
  5. Section 2.9 updates the provision for requesting a special authorization.<\/li>\n
  6. Section 4 incorporates labelling specifications from RSP-100,\u00a0Certification of Radio Apparatus<\/cite>.<\/li>\n
  7. Section 5.3 clarifies that in the case of stand-alone receivers not operating in the band 30-960 MHz containing components which are covered by Interference-Causing Equipment Standards (ICES), the applicable ICES including its labelling requirement shall apply.<\/li>\n
  8. Section 6.2 adds a reference to the documents REC-LAB,\u00a0Procedure for the Recognition of Foreign Testing Laboratories<\/cite>, and DES-LAB,\u00a0Procedure for Designation and Recognition of Canadian Testing Laboratories<\/cite>, for requirements regarding test site facilities.<\/li>\n
  9. Section 6.6 adds applicable restrictions when measuring field strength above 30 MHz at a distance greater than 30 m from the equipment under test.<\/li>\n
  10. Section 6.8 modifies the transmit antenna section to apply to both licensed and licence-exempt equipment.<\/li>\n
  11. Section 6.9 clarifies the requirements for test frequencies versus operating frequency bands.<\/li>\n
  12. Section 6.10 adds a requirement for average detectors to comply with the characteristics given in Publication #16 of the International Special Committee on Radio Interference (CAN\/CSA-CISPR) 16-1-1:15.<\/li>\n
  13. Section 6.11 clarifies the requirements for the power supply voltage to be used when measuring transmitter frequency stability.<\/li>\n
  14. Section 6.13.2 extends the frequency range for measuring unwanted emissions to 200 GHz and adds a provision on measurement for equipment containing digital devices at a higher frequency.<\/li>\n
  15. Section 8.7 clarifies the conditions for passive RFID tags to be exempt from any ISED certification, testing and labelling requirements.<\/li>\n
  16. Section 8.9 adds the frequency bands 0.495-0.505 MHz, 8.41425-8.41475 MHz, 149.9-150.05\u00a0MHz, 162.0125-167.17 MHz, 167.72-173.2 MHz and 2483.5-2500 MHz to the Table of Restricted Frequency Bands.<\/li>\n
  17. Section 8.11 clarifies a requirement for the frequency stability of unlicensed devices where the frequency stability limit is not specified.<\/li>\n
  18. Section 9 no longer includes definitions which are related to specific RSSs.<\/li>\n
  19. Editorial updates and improvements have been made.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
