IMPORTANT INFORMATION

HEARING AID COMPATIBILITY

This telephone system is judged to be hearing aid compatible per FCC/DOC standards.

FCC REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Your GE telephone equipment is registered with the Federal Com- munications Commission and is in compliance with parts 15J and 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.

1.Notification to the Locai Teiephone Company

On the bottom of this equipment is a label indicating among other information, the FCC Registration number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for the equipment. You must, upon request, pro- vide this information to your telephone company.

The REN is useful to determine the number of devices you may connect to your telephone line and still have all these devices ring when your telephone number is called. In most (but not all) areas, the sum of the REN’s of all devices connected to one line should not exceed 5. To be certain of the number of devices you may con- nect to your line as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company.

NOTES: This equipment may not be used on coin service pro- vided by the telephone company.

Party lines are subject to state tariffs, and therefore, you may not be able to use your own telephone equipment if you are on a par- ty line. Check with your local telephone company.

Notice must be given to the telephone company upon permanent disconnection of your telephone from your line.

2.Rights of the Teiephone Company.

Should your equipment cause trouble on your line which may harm the telephone network, the telephone company shall, where prac- ticable, notify you that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. Where prior notice is not practicable and the cir- cumstances warrant such action, the telephone company may tem- porarily discontinue sewice immediately. In case of such tempora~ discontinuance, the telephone company must: (1) promptly notify you of such temporay discontinuance, (2) afford you the oppor- tunity to correct the situation and (3) inform you of your right to bring a complaint to the Commission pursuant to procedures set forth in Subpart E of Part 68, FCC Rules and Regulations.

The telephone company may make changes in its communica- tions facilities, equipment, operations of procedures where such action is required in the operation of its business and not incon- sistent with FCC Rules and Regulations. If these changes are ex- pected to affect the use or performance of your telephone equipment, the telephone company must give you adequate notice, in writing, to allow you to maintain uninterrupted sewice.

INTERFERENCE INFORMATION

This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy which may interfere with residential radio and television reception if not pro perly installed and used in accordance with instructions contained in this manual. Reasonable protection against such interference is ensured, although there is no guarantee this will not occur in a given installation. If interference is suspected and verified by switching this equipment on and off, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient the radiohelevision receiver’s antenna, relocate the equipment with respect to the receiver, plug the equipment and receiver into separate circuit outlets. The user may also wish to consult a qualified radi~elevision technician for additional suggestions. This equipment has been fully tested and complies with all limits for Class B com- puting devices pursuant to part 15, Sub-part J, FCC Rules and Regulations

2-9720 specifications

The GE 2-9720 is a cutting-edge locomotive model developed by General Electric, designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern railroads for efficiency, power, and environmental sustainability. Entering service in the early 2000s, the 2-9720 is part of GE's Evolution Series, which focuses on advanced technology and fuel efficiency.

One of the main features of the GE 2-9720 is its powerful 12-cylinder engine, specifically designed to provide high horsepower while being environmentally friendly. The locomotive is equipped with the GE Tier 3 compliant and Ecomagination technology, which helps reduce emissions compared to older models. The locomotive meets strict EPA standards, making it a suitable choice for rail operators looking to minimize their environmental footprint.

The GE 2-9720 also incorporates the latest in electronic controls, which enhance the overall performance and reliability of the locomotive. The advanced microprocessor control system allows for real-time diagnostics and maintenance planning, ensuring optimal performance under varying conditions. Operators benefit from features such as traction control, which optimizes adhesion on different rail conditions, improving safety and efficiency during operations.

Another notable characteristic of the GE 2-9720 is its dynamic braking system. This technology converts kinetic energy back into electrical energy, which can be fed back into the locomotive's systems or used to power other trains on the line, thus enhancing overall energy efficiency. This feature is especially beneficial for operations involving frequent stops, gradients, or heavy loads.

Additionally, the GE 2-9720 is designed with crew comfort and safety in mind. The operator's cab is ergonomically equipped with advanced user interfaces for monitoring train performance, ensuring that engineers have the necessary tools to operate the locomotive efficiently. Safety systems include enhanced visibility features for improved situational awareness and automatic fault detection systems that alert operators to potential issues before they become critical.

The durable construction of the GE 2-9720 ensures long-lasting performance and reduced maintenance costs. With its rugged design, the locomotive is well-suited for various railway applications, including freight transport and passenger services. The combination of power, efficiency, and advanced technology makes the GE 2-9720 a popular choice among rail operators looking to enhance their fleets and improve operational performance in today's competitive rail industry.
