United states Radio and TV Interference Regulations
The Microsolt AcliMales interactive character, the ActiMates TV Pack Transmitter: and
the ActiMates PC Pack Transmitter comply With Part 15 of the us. Federal Communica-
tiuns commission (FCC) Rules, Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (i)
these deVices may not cause harmful interference, and (2) these devices must accept
ahu Interference that may cause undesired operation.
When used together, the ActiMates character and the Transmitter can radiate radio
frequency (RF) energy. it not installed and used in strict accordance with the instruc-
tions given in the printed documentation, the ActiMates character and the Transmitter
may cause harmful interference With other radio-operated devices' reception, Any
cable that is connected to the Transmitter must be a shielded cable that is properly
grounded. (The cable supplied with the Transmitter is properly grounded.)
The ActiMates character, the TV Pack Transmitter, and the PC Pack Transmitter have
been tested, and they comply with the limits for a Class B computing device in
accordance with the specifications in Part is of the us. FCC rules. These limits are
des:gned to provide reasonable protection against harmful RF interference in a
residential installation There is, however, no guarantee that RF interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
To determine if the ActiMates character or the Transmitter is causing interference to
other radio-operated devices (for example, baby monitors, cordless phones, radio-
controlled toys, etc), disconnect the Transmitter from your television and VCR or
computer, respectively, If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the
Transmitten
ii lne ActiMates character or the Transmitter causes interference to other radio-
o:e"ated devices in your name, try the following measures to correct the situation:
. Move the other radio-operated device to another part of_the room, away from the
ActiMates character and the Transmitter, or move the Acthates character to a
different part of the room.
- Love the Transmitter to a different location, For example, put the'TV Pack Transmit—
ter on the floor or on a stereo cabinet, or put the PC Pack Transmitter larther
away from your computer monitor and the central processing unit. For maximum
range, lhe Transmitter should be at least one foot away from your teleVislon, VCR,
and the computer.
. Plug the TV Pack Transmitter into a different power outlet so that the Transmitter
is on a different circuit than the teleVision, VCR, and computer.
- if necessary, ask an experienced computer or radio~Tv technician for more sugges—
tions. you may-chelplulmformatiol-i in thebookfet -‘The Interference Handbook"
