Where the universal power supply is required, use only the Solid State Logic-provided power supply. Use of any other power supply is not covered by your warranty and may cause fire or explosion.

Any external power supply may become hot during normal operation of the unit. Use care when handling the power supply.

Do not attempt to modify the power supply unit in any way other than to fit the appropriate power adaptor, as required (see overleaf).

If an extension power cable or adaptor is used, ensure that the total power rating of the power cable and/or adaptor is not exceeded.

A high quality IEEE1394/Firewire 400 cable is supplied. Use of alternative, inferior cables may result in reduced performance, including increased susceptibility to external interference.

Although IEEE1394/Firewire permits hot-pluggingthere are persistent reports of permanent damage caused to either host or peripheral equipment by this practice. Therefore, Solid State Logic strongly recommends that IEEE1394/Firewire connections are made only when both the host and Duende units are unpowered.

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. 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.
