Compliance Information
Radio and TV Interference
The Model 2900 Series 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 2900 Series has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A comput-
ing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guar-
antee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the Model 2900 Series causes interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the cables, try to correct the interfer-
ence 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 requirements.
The Department 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 telecommuni-
cations company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. 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 equip-
ment should be made by an authorized maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alter-
ations 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 Model 2900 Series has been tested with the specifications in Part 68 of the FCC rules. Your telephone
company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the proper
operation of the Model 2900 Series. If this happens, the telephone company 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 Model 2900 Series 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 Model 2900 Series, please contact Patton Electronics Technical Support at
+1 301-975-1000. The telephone company may ask you to disconnect the equipment from the telephone net-
Users should not attempt to establish or modify ground connections
themselves, instead they should contact the appropriate electric
inspection authority or electrician.
