FCC AND IC RFI INFORMATION
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
AND
INDUSTRY CANADA
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not
installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, may cause interference to radio communication. It has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance
with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user at his own
expense will be required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct
the interference.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission from
digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of Industry Canada.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites
applicables aux appareils numériques de la classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le
brouillage radioélectrique publié par Industrie Canada.

FCC REQUIREMENTS FOR
TELEPHONE-LINE EQUIPMENT
1. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established rules which
permit this device to be directly connected to the telephone network with
standardized jacks. This equipment is designed to operate only on dedicated
phone lines or wires. Do not connect to dial-up lines, coin lines, party lines, or
lines with dial tones.
2. If this device is malfunctioning, it may also be causing harm to the telephone
network; this device should be disconnected until the source of the problem
can be determined and until the repair has been made. If this is not done, the
telephone company may temporarily disconnect service.
3. If you have problems with your telephone equipment after installing this
device, disconnect this device from the line to see if it is causing the problem.
If it is, contact your supplier or an authorized agent.
4. The telephone company may make changes in its technical operations and
procedures. If any such changes affect the compatibility or use of this device,
the telephone company is required to give adequate notice of the changes.
5. If the telephone company requests information on what equipment is
connected to their lines, inform them of:
a. The telephone number that this unit is connected to.
b. The FCC registration number.
Item (b) can be found on the unit’s FCC label.
6. In the event of an equipment malfunction, all repairs should be performed by
your supplier or an authorized agent. It is the responsibility of users requiring
service to report the need for service to the supplier or to an authorized
agent.

CERTIFICATION NOTICE FOR EQUIPMENT USED IN CANADA
CERTIFICATION NOTICE FOR
EQUIPMENT USED IN CANADA
The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means
that the equipment meets certain telecommunications-network protective,
operation, and safety requirements. Industry Canada 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. In
some cases, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single-line individual
service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (extension
cord). 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 made by an authorized maintenance
facility—in this case, Black Box. 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
connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe
system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly
important in rural areas.
CAUTION:
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but
should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or
electrician, as appropriate.

CHAPTER 2: Introduction
2. Introduction
The Modem 202T is a Bell 202 (CCITT V.23 optional) voice-band, 1200-baud
modem. Use it on private, leased, un-switched telephone lines or any dedicated 2-
or 4-conductor wire (twisted or untwisted, shielded or unshielded). The Modem
has a range of up to 20 miles (32.2 km) on any ordinary wire pairs or unlimited on
“loaded” telephone company voice-grade (VG-6) leased lines.
The Modem 202T can operate without handshake lines using the proprietary
DataSense (DSCC) microprocessor firmware. This feature detects and buffers
incoming RS-232 data to allow the assertion and stabilization of the FSK carrier
before transmitting the buffered characters.
The nominal operating supply voltage for the Modem 202T is 12 VDC via a
2-conductor screw terminal power connector.
