1.1 RADIO AND TV INTERFERENCE
The Model 1018RC generates and uses radio frequency energy,
and if not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions—may cause interference to radio and
television reception. The Model 1018RC has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance
with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection from such interference in a
commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the Model
1018RC does cause interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the power off or removing the card, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures: moving the computing equipment away from
the receiver, re-orienting the receiving antenna and/or plugging the
receiving equipment into a different AC outlet (such that the computing
equipment and receiver are on different branches). In the event the user
detects intermittent or continuous product malfunction due to nearby
high power transmitting radio frequency equipment, the user is strongly
advised to take the following steps: use only data cables with an
external outer shield bonded to a metal or metalized connector; and,
configure the rear card as shown in section 3.2.1 of this manual.
1.2 CE NOTICE
The CE symbol on your Patton Electronics equipment indicates
that it is in compliance with the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
directive and the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) of the Union European
(EU). A Certificate of Compliance is available by contacting Technical
Support.
