FCC PART 68
The Messenger Modem is registered with the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) under Part 68. The Part
68 rules require that the following information be provided to the end user of equipment containing a DAA:
FCC Notice to the Users
1. UPON REQUEST ONLY, you must provide the following data to your telephone utility company
(telco):
a) Notice of intention to install or permanently remove an FCC Part 68 registered device or system,
and the *FCC Registration Number.
b) *The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) (see device label). Note that if several devices are
connected to the same line, the RENs must not add up to more than 5.0 (A or B). This REN
figure is important to your telco.
c) *The (USOC) jack type to be provided by the telco. Typically this will be RJ-11 C/W for single
lines.
*The *-flagged items above are noted on the equipment's FCC Compliance label.
2. This device may not be used on telco-operated coin phone lines. Party lines and privately owned coin-
phones are subject to local State regulatory policies, and possible additional State special require-
ments.
3. The telco has the right to make changes to their network which may affect the operation of your
equipment, provided you are given adequate advance written notice to permit correct operation.
4. In case of operational problems, disconnect your unit by removing the modular plug from the telco
jack. If your regular phone (or other device or system) still works properly, your Mercury Modem
has a problem and must remain disconnected and (officially) serviced or returned for repairs. If upon
the above disconnection your regular service still has problems, notify your telco that they may have
a problem. Request prompt service at no cost to you the user. If a problem is found in premises wiring
not telco-installed wiring, you may be subject to a service call charge.
5. Unless otherwise noted in the User's Manual (e.g.: fuses, etc.), user may not under any circumstances
(in or out of warranty) attempt any service, adjustments or repairs on this unit. It must be returned
to the factory or authorized U.S. service agency for all such work. Locations (or phone numbers) of
factory or authorized U.S. service points are listed in this user's manual.
6. Special FCC rules apply to equipment connected behind a PBX or KTS.
