Industry Canada Notice:
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain
telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements. Industry Canada does not guarantee the equipment
will operate to the user's satisfaction. Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected
to the facilities of the local telecommunication company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of
connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradations of service
in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any
repairs or alteration made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company
cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment. Users should ensure for their own protection that the
Earth Ground
connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This
is necessary both for proper operation and for protection.
CAUTION:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric
inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.
NOTICE:
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) assigned to each terminal device provides an indication of the maximum
number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may
consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence
Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.

Type of Service:
The
Communicator
is designed to be used on standard device telephone lines. It connects to the telephone
line by means of a standard jack called the USOC RJ-11C (or USOC FJ45S). Connection to telephone company provided coin
service (central office implemented systems) is prohibited. Connection to party lines service is subject to state tariffs.
Telephone Company Procedures:
The goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it can. In order to
do this, it may occasionally be necessary for them to make changes in their equipment, operations or procedures. If these changes
might affect your service or the operation of your equipment, the telephone company will give you notice, in writing, to allow you
to make any changes necessary to maintain uninterrupted service.
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary for the telephone company to request information from you concerning the equipment
which you have connected to your telephone line. Upon request of the telephone company, provide the FCC registration number
and the ringer equivalence number (REN); both of these items are listed on the equipment label. The sum of all of the REN’s on
your telephone lines should be less than five in order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases, a sum
of five may not be useable on a given line.
If Problems Arise:
If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from your
telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network. If the telephone company notes a problem, they may temporarily
discontinue service. When practical, they will notify you in advance of this disconnection. If advance notice is not feasible, you will
be notified as soon as possible. When you are notified, you will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and informed of
your right to file a complaint with the FCC. Contact your telephone company if you have any questions about your phone line. In
the event repairs are ever needed on the Communicator, they should be performed by Mircom Technologies Ltd. or an authorized
representative of Mircom Technologies Ltd. For information contact Mircom Technologies Ltd. at the address and phone numbers
