FCC Notice to Users
7000L FCC Regulations
The 7000L Home Communicator (landline) has been registered with the U.S. Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) in accordance with Part 15 and Part 68.
Notice
The FCC requires that the Communicator be connected to the nationwide telephone network
through a modular telephone jack (USOC RJ11C, RJ11W, RJ14 or RJ31X). This equipment may not
be used with coin telephone lines or party lines. Contact the state public utility commission, public
service commission or corporation commission for more information.
Notification for the Telephone Company
Upon request of your local telephone company, you are required to provide them with the following
information:
1. The "Line" to which the Communicator is connected (that is, your phone number); and
2. The Communicator's FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN). Those
numbers are on the bottom of the Communicator. The REN is used to determine how many
devices may be connected to a telephone line.
Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming
call. In most, but not all, areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the
number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact your
local telephone company. The REN for the Communicator is part of the product identifier that has
the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal
point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
Rights of the Telephone Company
If the Communicator causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify
you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice
isn't practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be
advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary. The telephone
company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the
operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice in
order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
Interference Information: FCC Rules Part 15
The Communicator complies with Part 15 of the FCC 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.
