Communications Regulation Information
The PASPORT AirLink SI (PS-2005) complies with part 15 of the FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) The sensor
interfaces may not cause harmful interference, and (2) the sensor inter-
faces must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation. See instructions below if interference to
radio and television reception is suspected.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna
used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter. .
Radio and Television Interference
The equipment described in this manual generates, uses, and can radiate
radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed and used properly-that is, in
strict accordance with instructions from PASCO scientific.-it may cause
interference with radio and television reception.
The sensor interfaces have been tested and found to comply with the lim-
its for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in Part
15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reason-
able protection against such interference in a residential installation. How-
ever, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
You can determine whether the sensor interface is causing interference by
disconnecting it from the computer. If the interference stops, it was proba-
bly caused by the sensor interface.
If the sensor interface does cause interference to radio or television recep-
tion, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following
remedies:
•
Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops;
•
Move the sensor interface to one side or the other of the televi-
sion or radio;
•
Move the sensor interface further from the television or radio.
If these remedies do not correct the problem, consult with an experienced
radio or television technician for additional suggestions.
Important:
Changes or modifications to the sensor interface not autho-
rized by PASCO scientific. could void the FCC Certification and negate
your authority to operate the product. Responsible party (FCC matters
