■ FCC Rules
Caution: Changes or modications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment
is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference
at his own expense.
For Canada :
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio
transmitter may only operate using an antenna of
a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for
the transmitter by Industry Canada.
To reduce potential radio interference to other
users, the antenna type and its gain should be so
chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated
power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for
successful communication.
This device complies with Industry Canada
licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: this device
may not cause interference and this device must
accept any interference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of the device.
