A DeviceDescriptor ([Section 5.2 of valid FCC ID is limited to 19 characters in the ASCII value range, as fccId RFC 7545]) proposed in FCC Administration Topics Review [FCC-Review-2012-10]. For the purposes of the PAWS protocol, the maximum length of the fccId value is 32 octets. Specifies the White Space Device type, as defined by the ETSI fccTvbdDeviceType DeviceDescriptor ([Section 5.2 of Harmonised Standard [ETSI-EN-301-598]. Valid values are single-letter RFC 7545]) strings, such as "A", "B", etc. Consult the documentation for details about the device types. etsiEnDeviceType DeviceDescriptor ([Section 5.2 of [RFC 7545] Specifies the TV Band White Space device type, as defined RFC 7545]) by the FCC. Valid values are "FIXED", "MODE_1", "MODE_2". Specifies the White Space Device technology identifier, as defined by etsiEnTechnologyId DeviceDescriptor ([Section 5.2 of the ETSI Harmonised Standard [ETSI-EN-301-598]. The maximum length of RFC 7545]) the string value is 64 octets. Consult the documentation for valid values. DeviceDescriptor ([Section 5.2 of Specifies the White Space Device category, as defined by the ETSI etsiEnDeviceCategory RFC 7545]) Harmonised Standard [ETSI-EN-301-598]. Valid values are the strings, "master" and "slave". It is case insensitive. Specifies the constraint on the device maximum total EIRP, as defined SpectrumSpec ([Section 5.9 of RFC by the ETSI Harmonised Standard [ETSI-EN-301-598]. The values are etsiEnSimultaneousChannelOperationRestriction 7545]) represented by numeric strings, such as "0", "1", etc. Consult the documentation for the specification of the power constraint corresponding to each parameter value. Specifies the white-space device emissions class, as defined by the DeviceDescriptor ([Section 5.2 of ETSI Harmonised Standard [ETSI-EN-301-598], that characterizes the etsiEnDeviceEmissionsClass RFC 7545]) out-of-block emissions of the device. The values are represented by numeric strings, such as "1", "2", "3", etc. Consult the documentation for details about emissions classes. PAWS Error Code Registry Registration Procedure(s) Specification Required Expert(s) Unassigned Reference [RFC 7545] Note Error code values range from -32768 to 32767, inclusive. See [Section 5.17 of RFC 7545]. Available Formats [IMG] CSV Code Name Description and Additional Parameters Reference 32767 to 1 Unassigned 0 Reserved [RFC 7545] -1 to -99 Unassigned -100 Reserved [RFC 7545] -101 VERSION The Database does not support the specified version of the message. This error does not use any [RFC 7545] additional data. The Database does not support the device. For example, it supports none of the ruleset specified in the -102 UNSUPPORTED request or does not support the device, based on its device type, model, etc. This error does not use any [RFC 7545] additional data. -103 UNIMPLEMENTED The Database does not implement the optional request or optional feature. This error does not use any [RFC 7545] additional data. The specified geolocation is outside the coverage area of the Database. The Database MAY include a -104 OUTSIDE_COVERAGE DbUpdateSpec ([Section 5.7 of RFC 7545]) to provide a list of alternate databases that might be [RFC 7545] appropriate for the requested location. See OUTSIDE_COVERAGE Error ([Section 5.17.1 of RFC 7545]) for more details. The Database has changed its URI. The Database MAY include a DbUpdateSpec ([Section 5.7 of RFC 7545]) in -105 DATABASE_CHANGE the error response to provide devices with one or more alternate database URIs. The device needs to [RFC 7545] update its preconfigured entry for the responding database with the alternate databases listed in the DbUpdateSpec. See DATABASE_CHANGE Error ([Section 5.17.2 of RFC 7545]) for more details. -106 to -199 Unassigned -200 Reserved [RFC 7545] A required parameter is missing. The Database MUST include a list of the required parameter names. The -201 MISSING Database MAY include only names of parameters that are missing, but MAY include a full list. Including [RFC 7545] the full list of missing parameters may reduce the number of re-queries from the device. See MISSING Error ([Section 5.17.3 of RFC 7545]) for more details. -202 INVALID_VALUE A parameter value is invalid in some way. The Database SHOULD include a message indicating which [RFC 7545] parameter and why its value is invalid. This error does not use any additional data. -203 to -299 Unassigned -300 Reserved [RFC 7545] The device is not authorized to used the Database. Authorization may be determined by the ruleset or be -301 UNAUTHORIZED dependent on prior arrangement between the device and Database. This error does not use any additional [RFC 7545] data. -302 NOT_REGISTERED Device registration required, but the device is not registered. This error does not use any additional [RFC 7545] data. -303 to -31999 Unassigned -32000 to -32768 Reserved Reserved for JSON-RPC error codes. [RFC 7545] Licensing Terms
