The FCC wants you to know...

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B

digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential

installation.

Any changes or modifications made to this equipment may void the user's

authority to operate this equipment.

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:

•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver

•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected

•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

The user may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications

Commission helpful: How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference

Problems. This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office,

Washington, D.C., 20402. Stock No. 004-00398-5.

All external cables connecting to this basic unit need to be shielded. For cables

connecting to option boards, see the option manual or installation instructions.

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions

set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of

Communications.

This equipment is in the 2nd Class category (information equipment to be used in

a residential area or an adjacent area thereto) and conforms to the standards set by

the Voluntary Control Council For Interference by Data Processing Equipment

and Electronic Office Machines aimed at preventing radio interference in such

residential area.

When used near a radio or TV receiver, it may become the cause of radio

interference.

Read the instructions for correct handling.

This equipment meets or exceeds requirements for safety in the U.S. (UL 1950),

Canada (CSA C22.2 No. 950), and Europe (EN 60950/IEC 950) with Nordic

requirements.
