REMOTE TELEMETRY LICENSE

The attached license is required by the United States Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) for operation of the DigiTrak® Remote Receiver. DigiTrak® Remote Receivers are iden- tified by the orange arrow and the FCC ID #KKG007 on the label below the battery compartment door.

This license was approved by the FCC under an overall license issued to Digital Control Incorporated. An operator of a DigiTrak® Remote Receiver in the United States is no longer required to apply for a separate personal license as previously required.

This license authorizes operation of the DigiTrak® Remote Re- ceiver in the United States only. The DigiTrak® Remote Receiver shall only be operated in accordance with the rules and regula- tions of the FCC and as outlined in the owner’s manual accom- panying this equipment. No modifications may be made to the DigiTrak® Remote Receiver or other DigiTrak® equipment.

It is the operator’s responsibility to obtain proper licensing for operation of the DigiTrak® Remote Receiver outside of the United States.
