EMC and Safety Notice

Federal Communications Commission Radio Frequency Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and radiates radio frequency energy and if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:

- Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the supplier or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This Transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
Any changes or modifications (including the antennas) made to this device that
are not expressly approved by the manufacturer may void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an
un-controlled environment. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
compliance requirements, avoid direct contact to the transmitting antenna during
transmitting.

Countermeasures if interference occurs

You are encouraged to do the following if interference occurs while you are
operating the device:
Turn OFF the unit and unplug the AC adapter from the outlet to see if the
interference disappears.
Connect the AC adapter to the outlet in another room and check if the
interference still exists.
Use an outlet that is far away from the interfered appliance.
Re-orient your computer in respect to the interfered appliance to see if there is
improvement.
If all of these failed, please call your supplier for help.
