REGULATORY INFORMATION
Wireless Product Notice
Radio controls provide a reliable
communications link and fill an important
need in portable wireless signaling;
however, there are some limitations which
must be observed.
•
For U.S. installations only: The radios are
required to comply with FCC Rules and
Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such,
they have limited transmitter power and
therefore limited range.
•
A receiver cannot respond to more than
one transmitted signal at a time and
may be blocked by radio signals that
occur on or near their operating
frequencies, regardless of code settings.
•
Changes or modifications to the device
may void FCC compliance.
•
Infrequently used radio links should be
tested regularly to protect against
undetected interference or fault.
•
A general knowledge of radio and its
vagaries should be gained prior to acting
as a wholesale distributor or dealer, and
these facts should be communicated to
the end users.

computing device in accordance with Part
15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such
interference in a residential installation.
However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause
interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is

FCC Telephone Rules and
Regulations
The FCC requires that this alarm dialer
system not make more than 15 repetitive
dialing attempts to a single telephone
number. There are no limitations when the
calls are made sequentially to two or more
alternative numbers, or when these calls are
spaced 10 minutes apart to a single number.
The FCC Rules and Regulations do not
specify the re‐attempt period as this can
vary for specific applications. When setting
this period, take into consideration local,
interstate, foreign, and special network call
completion characteristics, network
processing time, a sufficient number of rings
and busy/don't answer modes.
