The Model 3042 generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not

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 3042 does cause interference to r adio
or television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the
RS-232 interface, 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).
