FCC instructions
This product complies with part 68 of the FCC Rules and
Regulations. With each device shipped, there is a label which
contains, among other information, the FCC Registration Number
and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this product. You must,
upon request, provide this information to your telephone company.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may
connect to a telephone line and still have all of these devices ring
when the number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the
RENs of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0).
To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to the line,
as determined by the REN, you should contact the local telephone
company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
If your system causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone
company may discontinue service temporarily. If possible, they will
notify you in advance. If advance notification is not practical, you
will be notified as soon as possible.
Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities,
equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect proper
functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will be notified in
advance to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted
telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this device please contact Octagon
Systems for information on obtaining service or repairs. The
telephone company may ask you to disconnect this device from the
network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure
that the device is not malfunctioning.
This device may not be used on coin service lines provided by the
telephone company (this does not apply to private coin telephone
applications, which use standard telephone lines). Connection to
party lines is subject to state tariffs.
