"Warning
-
This
equipment
has
been
verified
to
comply with
the limits
for
a
Class B
computing
device,
pursuant to
Subpart
J,
of Part 15, of
FCC
rules.
Operation with
non-certified or
non-
verified
equipment
is
likely
to result in
interference to radio
and
TV
reception."
If
your equipment does
cause interference to
radio
or television
reception,
you can
try to correct the
interference
by using
one or
more
of
the following
measures:
•Turn
the
TV
or radio
antenna
until
the
interfer-
ence
stops.
• Move
the
equipment
to
one
side or
the other of
the
TV
or radio.
•Move
the
equipment
farther
away
from
the
TV
or
radio.
•
Plug
the equipment
into an outlet that
is
on
a dif-
ferent circuit
than the
TV
or
radio.
(That
is,
make
certain
the
equipment and the radio
or television
set
are
on
circuits
controlled
by different circuit
breakers or fuses.)
•
Consider installing
a rooftop
television
antenna
with coaxial
cable
lead-in
between the
antenna
and
TV.
The
equipment described
in this
manual generates
and
uses
radio-frequency energy.
If it is
not installed
and used
properly, that
is,
in strict
accordance with
our instructions,
it
may
cause interference with
radio
and
television
reception.
This
equipment
has
been
tested
and found
to
com-
ply
with the
limits
for
a
Class
B computing device
in
accordance with the specifications
in
Subpart
J,
of
Part
15, of
FCC
Rules.
These
rules
are
designed to
provide reasonable protection against
such an inter-
ference
in
a
residential installation.
However,
there
is
no
guarantee that
the interference
will
not occur
in
a
particular
installation. If
this
equipment
does cause
interference to radio or
televi-
sion
reception
,
which
can be determined by turning
the
equipment on and
off,
the user
is
encouraged to
try
to correct
the
interference
by
the following
measure:
• Disconnect other devices
and
their
input/output
cables
one
at a time.
If
the
interference stops,
it is
caused
by
either
the other device
or
its
I/O cable.
These devices usually
require
Roland designated
shielded
I/O cables.
For Roland devices,
you can
obtain the
proper shielded cable
from your dealer.
For
non Roland devices,
contact the
manufacturer
or dealer for assistance.
if
necessary,
you should consult
your dealer or an
experienced radio/television
technician for
addi-
tional suggestions.
