About This Manual Overview This manual provides installation instructions for the DBS 576. Please carefully observe the contents of this manual. The following table summarizes the purpose of each chapter. Chapter No. Title Purpose Requirements Includes DBS 576 model Nos, information on the installation environment, and how to clean the DBS 576.
General Requirements • The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established Rules which permit the DBS 576 to be directly connected to the telephone network. FCC Compliant standardized jacks are used for these connections. • This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, provide this information to your telephone company. • If the DBS 576 telephone equipment caused harm to the Telephone Network, the Telephone Company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance.
- Perform such activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morning or late evening. • The software contained in the DBS 576 to allow user access to the network must be upgraded to recognize newly established network area codes and exchange codes as they are placed in service.
Vibration: The environment should be free from excessive vibration, which could loosen components. Water exposure: Because the DBS 576 is an electrical device, exposure to water is dangerous. Do not place anything containing water on the system. Do not install under overhead plumbing, sprinkler system valves, or in areas that are susceptible to flooding.
• The attachment-plug receptacles of the same type as that used by the systems that are in the vicinity of the DBS 576 are all to be of a grounding type, and the equipment grounding conductors serving these receptacles are to be connected to earth ground at the service equipment.
