This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules. 
 
Operation is subject to the following conditions: 

1.

 

This device may not cause harmful interference. 

2.

 

This  device  must  accept  any  interference  received,  including 
interference that may cause undesired operation. 

3.

 

This device should not be co-located or operating in conjunction 
with any other antenna or transmitter. 

 

Interference Statement 

 

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. 
 
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 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. 

 
FCC  Caution:  To  assure  continued  compliance,  (example  –  use  only 
shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or peripheral 
devices). Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
