INSTRUCTIONS TO USER 
CONGRATULATIONS ....... You have selected a telephone system manufactured 
by Iwatsu Electric Co., Ltd. that has been designed to provide a multitude of features 
with the reliability for which Iwatsu products are famous.  The Omega-Phone ADIX-
VS Telephone System has been registered and approved by the Federal 
Communications Commission (FCC) for direct connection to your local telephone 
service.  In accordance with FCC rules and regulations regarding telephone equipment, 
Iwatsu is required to make you aware of your rights and obligations regarding the use 
of this equipment.  In order that we may fulfill our obligations, please take a moment 
to carefully read the rules and regulations contained herein that apply to you. 
 
FCC RULES AND REGULATIONS 
(1) Notification to the Local Telephone Company 
The local Telephone Company may request specific information about the 
Omega-Phone ADIX-VS Telephone System before connection can be made to the 
local Telephone Company lines.  When requested by the Telephone Company, the 
following information should be provided: 
(a) The FCC Registration Number for all equipment connected to an individual 
line. 
(b) The largest Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for each line. 
(c) Information required for compatible operation of the equipment with the 
Telephone Company communication facilities. 
 
The FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) are printed on 
the equipment label located on the common equipment cabinet of the system.  The 
largest Ringer Equivalence Number is the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Number 
(REN) of each FCC registered device that is connected to the same line.  The 
maximum Ringer Equivalence Number that can normally be used without causing 
faulty operation is 5.0.  Check with your local Telephone Company to determine the 
maximum Ringer Equivalence Number for the telephone lines you are using.  In order 
to connect registered terminal equipment to the Telephone Company lines, the 
terminal equipment must utilize a FCC standard means of connection, often referred 
to as a registered jack.   The type of jack utilized on the Omega-Phone ADIX-VS 
telephone system is identified by a USOC code number.  Different code numbers are 
utilized for the various types of services provided by the Telephone Company that 
the systems use.  When requesting new telephone service, the Telephone Company

Company network, the Telephone Company will notify you in advance that 
temporary discontinuance of service may be required.  In the event advance notice is 
not practical, the Telephone Company will notify you of the interruption of service 
as soon as possible.  Also, the Telephone Company will advise you of your right to 
file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.  The Telephone 
Company may also make changes in its facilities, operations, or procedures that could 
affect the operation of your system.  If this occurs, the Telephone Company will 
provide advance notice in order for you to make the necessary modifications to

(5) Instruction Regarding the Repair and Refurbishment of Registered 
Equipment 
Only the manufacturer or its authorized agents are permitted under the FCC rules to 
make other than routine repairs to registered telephone equipment.  Repairs made to 
registered telephone equipment by unauthorized entities will void equipment 
warranties as well as violate local state tariffs.  Routine repairs are classified typically 
as lamp replacement, fuse replacement, directory label replacement, etc.  All other 
repairs to your Omega-Phone ADIX-VS telephone equipment should be performed 
by Iwatsu America, Inc.  When trouble is experienced on any telephone line that your 
system is connected to and the trouble is causing harm to the network, the Telephone 
Company may request that you remove the equipment from the telephone line(s) 
until the problem has been corrected.  To contact Iwatsu America, Inc.  for

(6) Use of Other FCC Registered Equipment 
Aside from the Ringer Equivalence reporting as explained (above), use of other FCC 
equipment may provide for specific limitations depending upon the type of

the limitations are, if any, on the use of such equipment.

ADIX-VS GENERAL DESCRIPTION - 6  (8) Toll Restriction and Optimized Routing Features 
The Omega-Phone ADIX-VS system provides both Toll Restriction and Optimized 
Routing features that may be programmed in your system.  The software or 
programming contained in the ADIX-VS system may be required to be upgraded to 
allow user access to the network in order to recognize newly established network area 
codes and exchange codes as they are placed in service.  Failure to upgrade the 
programming or software (if required) to recognize the new codes as they are 
established will restrict the user from gaining access to the network and to these 
codes.  Bell Communication Research (Bellcore) publishes North American 
Numbering Plan (NANP) information in paper, microfiche and tape.  An abbreviated 
summary of the newly established area codes and exchange codes is also available. 
Bellcore may be contacted at (973) 829-2000 or on the Internet at www.bellcore.com 
to obtain the appropriate information for keeping current with changes in the NANP. 
 
(9) Radio Frequency Emissions 
The Omega-Phone ADIX-VS Telephone System is registered with the FCC as a Class 
A RF Device that may radiate radio frequency emissions.  In the event that the 
system causes interference with another device, steps must be taken to reduce the 
interference, including possible removal of the equipment.  While the probability of 
such an event is low, consult Iwatsu America, Inc. for further assistance if this occurs. 
 
(10) Equal Access Requirements 
This system is capable of providing users access to interstate providers of operator 
services through the use of equal access codes.  Failure to provide equal access 
capabilities is a violation of the Telephone Operator Consumer Services Improvement 
Act of 1990 and Part 68 of the FCC rules. 
 
(11) Electrical Safety Advisory 
While this system is fully compliant with FCC Rules and Regulations, it is 
recommended that an AC surge arrestor of the form and capacity suitable for the 
model of system purchased be installed in the AC outlet to which the system is 
connected.  Consult with your distributor as to the surge protector requirements for 
your system. 
 
(12) Music-On-Hold 
In accordance with U.S. Copyright Law, a license may be required from the American 
Society of Composers, Authors and Publisher, or other similar organization, if radio 
or TV broadcasts are transmitted through the music-on-hold feature of the 
telecommunication system.  Iwatsu America, Inc., hereby disclaims any liability 
arising out of the failure to obtain such a license. 
 
(13) Use of Call Recorder and VM Record  
						

							 
ADIX-VS GENERAL DESCRIPTION - 7  In certain states it is illegal to intercept and/or record telephone calls. In certain states 
and under certain circumstances it is illegal to intercept for the purposes of listening in 
and/or recording telephone calls. Because such activity is not illegal in all jurisdictions 
and may be permitted in training and/or monitoring of personnel, this telephone 
system can be programmed to permit interception and/or recording with or without 
warning to those on the line. Before utilizing the system for such purposes, you are 
advised to consult with an attorney familiar with laws of the jurisdiction in which you 
utilize such feature. Iwatsu America, Inc., its distributors, and the manufacturers 
responsible for this feature make no representations with respect to the legality of its 
use and disclaim any liability for claims and/or damages arising from the use or misuse 
of this feature.

for defined areas based on the proposed 40,000 sq. ft. rule.  This “Area Routing”

identifies the general location of the caller.
