Regulatory Information

Notice to Users:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. In
addition any modifications not expressly approved by SynapSense Corporation for compliance will void the user’s authority to
to operate the equipment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.

To protect the user from excessive RF exposure the operator must maintain a safe distance of 20 cm from the device during
operation.

FCC and Industry Canada Compliance Statement:

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada RSS-210 Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. The antenna(s) used for this
transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

Antenna Statement:

Only the antenna supplied with this unit may be used. Any attempt to modify this antenna or substitute a different antenna
by any means shall void the warranty and will void the FCC approval to operate this equipment. In the event an antenna is
broken, a replacement antenna may be obtained by contacting the Product Support Center listed in the warranty section of
this manual.

CE Statement:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of the European Council Directive on the approximation
of the law of the member states relating to electromagnetic compatibility (89/336/EEC) according to EN 55022 Class B.

Industry Canada Equipment Notice:

The Industry Canada certification identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain
telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the appropriate Terminal
Equipment Technical Document(s). 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
telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. The
customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some
situations. Repairs to certified equipment should be coordinated by a representative 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 electrical ground connectors of the power utility, telephone lines and
internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This presentation may be particularly important in rural
areas.
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric
