An FCC compliant landline cord and standard plug is provided with this equipment. This equipment is
designed to be connected to the wired phone line on premises wiring using a compatible modular jack that
is Part 68 compliant. See installation instructions for details.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices that may be connected to the wired phone line.
Excessive RENs on the line may result in the device not ringing in response to an incoming call. Typically, 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 the local telephone company.
If the Merlin@home™ transmitter causes harm to the wired phone line, 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 to it's facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could
affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice
so you can make the necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
If you have trouble with the Merlin@home transmitter, for repair or warranty information, contact Technical
Service.
If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you
disconnect the equipment until the problem is resolved.
