Division 9 Information to be provided by manufacturersF1

For the purposes of conformity assessment pursuant to Article 4, the technical documentation shall contain the following elements:

1. (a)

   for each standby and/or off mode:

   • the power consumption data in Watt rounded to the first decimal place,

   • the measurement method used,

   • a description of how the equipment mode was selected or programmed,

   • the sequence of events leading to the condition where the equipment automatically changes modes,

   • any notes regarding the operation of the equipment, e.g. information on how the user switches the equipment into a condition having networked standby,

   • if applicable, the default time after which the power management function, or similar function, has switched the equipment into the applicable low power mode or condition;

2. (b)

   for networked equipment:

   • the number and type of network ports and, with the exception of wireless network ports, where these ports are located on the equipment; in particular it shall be declared if the same physical network port accommodates two or more types of network ports,

   • whether all network ports are deactivated before delivery,

   • whether the equipment qualifies as HiNA equipment or equipment with HiNa functionality; where no information is provided, this is considered not to be the case;

   and for each type of network port:

   • the default time after which the power management function, or a similar function, switches the equipment into a condition providing networked standby,

   • the trigger that is used to reactivate the equipment,

   • the (maximum) performance specifications,

   • the (maximum) power consumption of the equipment in a condition providing networked standby into which the power management function, or a similar function, will switch the equipment, if only this port is used for remote activation,

   • the communication protocol used by the equipment;

   If no information is provided, the equipment is considered not to be networked equipment unless it provides the functionalities of a router, network switch, wireless network access point (not being a terminal), hub, modem, VoIP telephone, video phone.

3. (c)

   test parameters for measurements:

   • ambient temperature,

   • test voltage in V and frequency in Hz,

   • total harmonic distortion of the electricity supply system,

   • information and documentation on the instrumentation, set-up and circuits used for electrical testing;

4. (d)

   the equipment characteristics relevant for assessing conformity with the requirements set out in point 1(c), or the requirements set out in points 2(c) and/or 2(d) and/or 3(b), as applicable, including the time taken to automatically reach standby, or off mode, or another condition which does not exceed the applicable power consumption requirements for off mode and/or standby mode.

   In particular, if applicable, a technical justification shall be provided that the requirements set out in point 1(c), or the requirements set out in points 2(c) and/or 2(d) and/or 3(b), are inappropriate for the intended use of equipment. The need to maintain one or more network connections or to wait for a remotely initiated trigger is not considered a technical justification for exemption from the requirements set out in 2(d) in the case of equipment that is not defined as networked equipment by the manufacturer.
