The Security Console’s telephone dialer is designed to conform to federal regulations, and it can be connected to most telephone lines. However, each telephone or telephone device that is connected to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. This is referred to as the device’s ringer equivalence number, or REN.

If more than one telephone or other device is connected to the same line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than five, the telephones might not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer operation. If ringer operation is impaired, remove one of the devices from the line.

Note: The console must not be connected to:

Coin-operated systems

Party-line systems

Most electronic key telephone systems

The console’s telephone dialer complies with Part 68 of FCC Rules.You must, upon request, provide the FCC registration number and the REN to the local telephone company. Both numbers are shown on the bottom of the console.

The telephone portion of the Security Console has been tested and found to comply with all applicable UL and FCC standards.

In the unlikely event that the console causes problems on the telephone line, the telephone company can disconnect service. The telephone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the telephone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Also, the telephone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this console. The telephone company notifies the owner of these changes in advance, so the necessary steps can be taken to prevent interruption of telephone service.
