SDLT 220 and SDLT 320 Product Manual Revision History Revision 422216-01 Date (YYMMDD) 020610 Summary of Changes Initial Release SDLT 220 and SDLT 320 Product Manual User Manual Statements for Class A Equipment (Internal Tape System) This equipment generates, uses, and may emit radio frequency energy. The equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference in a commercial installation. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause interference, in which case the user at his own expense will be required to take whatever measures may be required to correct the interference. Any modifications to this device--unless expressly approved by the manufacturer--can void the user's authority to operate this equipment under Part 15 of the FCC rules. Note: Additional information on the need to interconnect the device with shielded (data) cables or the need for special devices, such as ferrite beads on cables, is required if such means of interference suppression was used in the qualification test for the device. This information will vary from device to device and needs to be obtained from the EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) group or product manager. Warning! This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures. Achtung! Dieses ist ein Gerät der Funkstörgrenzwertklasse A. In Wohnbereichen können bei Betrieb dieses Gerätes Rundfunkstörungen auftreten, in welchen Fällen der Benutzer für entsprechende Gegenmaßnahmen verantwortlich ist. Warning! This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. Cet appareil numérique de la classe A est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada. Attention! Ceci est un produit de Classe A. Dans un environnement domestique, ce produit risque de créer des interférences radioélectriques, il appartiendra alors à l'utilisateur de prendre les mesures spécifiques appropriées. SDLT 220 and SDLT 320 Product Manual User Manual Statements for Class B Equipment (Tabletop Tape System) This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference that may cause undesirable operation. Any modifications to this device--unless expressly approved by the manufacturer--can void the user's authority to operate this equipment under Part 15 of the FCC rules. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: · · · · Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help. Note: Additional information on the need to interconnect the device with shielded (data) cables or the need for special devices, such as ferrite beads on cables, is required if such means of interference suppression was used in the qualification test for the device. This information will vary SDLT 220 and SDLT 320 Product Manual from device to device and needs to be obtained from the EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) group or product manager. This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003. Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
