FCC  Statement

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.  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 inter-
ference 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 meas-
ures:

·

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.

This equipment has been certified to comply with the limits for a class B computing device, pur-
suant to FCC and IC Rules.  In order to maintain compliance with FCC and IC regulations, shield-
ed cables must be used with this equipment.  Operation with non-approved equipment or unshield-
ed cables is likely to result in interference to radio and TV reception.  The user is cautioned that
changes and modifications made to the equipment without the approval of manufacturer could
void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
