Compliance Information
Radio
and TV
Interference
The DACS 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 DACS has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance
with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protec-
tion from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If the DACS causes interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by disconnecting the cables, 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).
Industry Canada Notice
The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This certification means
that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety require-
ments. The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction. Before install-
ing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connec-
tion. In some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single line individual service may be
extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be
aware that compliance with the above condition may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to some certified equipment should be made by an authorized maintenance facility designated by the
supplier. Any repairs or alterations 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 ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic
water pipe system, are connected together. This protection may be particularly important in rural areas.
FCC Information
The DACS has been tested and registered in compliance with the specifications in Part 68 of the FCC rules. A
label on the equipment bears the FCC registration number. You may be requested to provide this information
to your telephone company. Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, opera-
tions or procedures that could affect the proper operation of the DACS. If this happens, the telephone com-
pany should give you advance notice to prevent the interruption of your service. The telephone company may
decide to temporarily discontinue your service if they believe your DACS may cause harm to the telephone
network. Whenever possible, they will contact you in advance. If you elect to do so, you have the right to file a
complaint with the FCC. If you have any trouble operating the DACS, please contact Patton Electronics Tech-
nical Support at +1 301-975-1000. The telephone company may ask you to disconnect the equipment from
the telephone network until the problem has been corrected or until you are certain that the DACS is not mal-
functioning. In accordance with FCC rules and regulation CFR 47 68.218(b)(6), you must notify the tele-
Users should not attempt to establish or modify ground connections
themselves, instead they should contact the appropriate electric
inspection authority or electrician.
