INSTRUCTIONS TO THE USER
The Iwatsu Enterprise-CS line of digital telecommunications systems has been
registered and approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for
direct connection to your local telephone service. In accordance with FCC rules and
regulations regarding telephone equipment, Iwatsu is required to make you aware of
your rights and obligations regarding the use of this equipment. In order that we may
fulfill our obligations, please take a moment to carefully read the rules and
regulations contained herein that apply to you.
FCC Rules and Regulations
(1) Notification to the Local Telephone Company
The local Telephone Company may request specific information about the Iwatsu
Enterprise-CS before connection can be made to the local Telephone Company lines.
When requested by the Telephone Company, the following information should be
provided:
a) The FCC Registration Number for all equipment connected to an individual
line.
b) The largest Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for each line.
c) Information required for compatible operation of the equipment with the
Telephone Company communication facilities. The FCC Registration Number
and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) are printed on the equipment label
located on the common equipment cabinet of the system (IX-CME). The
largest Ringer Equivalence Number is the sum of the Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) of each FCC registered device that is connected to the same
line. The maximum Ringer Equivalence Number that can normally be used
without causing faulty operation is 5.0. Check with your local Telephone
Company to determine the maximum Ringer Equivalence Number for the
telephone lines you are using. In order to connect registered terminal
equipment to the Telephone Company lines, the terminal equipment must
utilize an FCC “standard means of connection”, often referred to as a
“registered jack”. The type of jack utilized on the Iwatsu Enterprise-CS is
identified by a USOC code number. Different code numbers are utilized for the
various types of services provided by the Telephone Company that the systems
use. When requesting new telephone service, the Telephone Company must be
informed of the code number for each type of service. The Iwatsu Enterprise-
CS can be configured as either a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) - Fully
Protected, Key Telephone System - Fully Protected or a Multi-Function
(Hybrid) System - Fully Protected. For your convenience, the following are the
codes and registration numbers applicable to Iwatsu Enterprise-CS equipment:
