In the United States (other countries have their versions of same - but they are incompatible and completely different) a product that emits any frequency above 500KHz must be inspected and approved by the FCC (Federal Communication Comission). Once approved, it is issued an ID number that begins with a 3 letter code for the company that makes it, followed by another number that actually identifies the inspection. Example: DZLSCB4-PC-MCR (my Logitech Scanman 256. :-) The most CRITICAL are the first 3 characters (DZL), as far as we're concerned, anyways. That's because we are most interested in who made some device, not what the FCC thinks of it. :-)
The FCC ID SEARCH FORM provides quick access to manufacturer info, operating frequency range, the application and grant, and any exhibits that may have been provided.

Below is a list of FCC ID numbers for monitors.
I have just started to list the monitors as they come into my shop for repair. What I want to do is create a cross reference for monitors so that technicians and consumers can tell what monitors are similar to others. An example is:
FCC ID Make Model ----------------------------------------------------------- CSYSC-431VA BSR 3100V CSYSC-431VS SAMTRON SC-428VS
These two monitors are basically identical. I've worked on both types. The point is that if someone has a problem with a BSR and another person has a cure for the same type problem on a Samtron then the BSR can be fixed.
If people would like to e-mail me info off the back of their monitors I will add it to the list and then make that list available.

I will need Make, Model and the FCC ID number. This system works in the US but if they use another system to ID monitors in other countries we will incorporate that into the system somehow. Hopefully this will help the people with the problem and the people with the solutions get together.

Pending Authorizations:
Information on pending and recently granted equipment authorization applications is only available through OET's Public Access Link (PAL). PAL is a computer bulletin board system (BBS) that can be reached via the public switched network at +1 (301) 725-1072. The modem setting are: 8-n-1. The PAL system provides access to both pending and granted equipment authorization records; however, it is by FCCID only.
