Panasonic Home Network System HUB Kx Hnb600 System Setup Guide

							Note:
R Use only the supplied Panasonic AC
adaptor PNLV236.
R A microSD card (not supplied) is required to
record images from cameras. Refer to the
information about the available microSD
card (page 3).
R To remove the microSD card, push in the
microSD card and then remove it.
Note about power connections
AC adaptor connection
R The AC adaptor must remain connected at
all times. (It is normal for the adaptor to feel
warm during use.)
R The AC adaptor should be connected to a
vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to a
ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the weight of
the adaptor may cause it to become
disconnected.
Power failure
R The hub will not work during a power failure.
R The hub’s telephone features will not work
during a power failure. We recommend
connecting a corded-type telephone that
does not use an AC adaptor to your
telephone line. You can connect the
telephone to the same telephone line jack
as the hub by using a Panasonic T-adaptor
(page 3).

							FCC and other information
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the
FCC rules and the requirements adopted by
the ACTA. On the bottom of this equipment is
a label that contains, among other information,
a product identifier in the format
US:ACJ----------.
If requested, this number must be provided to
the telephone company.
R Registration No.............(found on the
bottom of the unit)
R Ringer Equivalence No. (REN).......0.1B
A plug and jack used to connect this
equipment to the premises wiring and
telephone network must comply with the
applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A
compliant telephone cord and modular plug is
provided with the product. It is designed to be
connected to a compatible modular jack that is
also compliant.
The REN is used to determine the number of
devices that may be connected to a telephone
line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may
result in the devices not ringing in response to
an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the
sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To
be certain of the number of devices that may
be connected to a line, as determined by the
total RENs, contact the local telephone
company. For products approved after July
23, 2001, the REN for the product is part of
the product identifier that has the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented
by ## are the REN without a decimal point
(e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
If this equipment causes harm to the
telephone network, the telephone company
will notify you in advance that temporary
discontinuance of service may be required.
But if advance notice isn’t practical, the
telephone company will notify the customer as
soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of
your right to file a complaint with the FCC if
you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes
in its facilities, equipment, operations or
procedures that could affect the operation of
the equipment. If this happens the telephone
company will provide advance notice in order
for you to make necessary modifications to
maintain uninterrupted service.
If trouble is experienced with this equipment,
for repair or warranty information, please
contact a Factory Service Center or other
Authorized Servicer. If the equipment is
causing harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company may request that you
disconnect the equipment until the problem is
resolved.
Connection to party line service is subject to
state tariffs. Contact the state public utility
commission, public service commission or
corporation commission for information.
If your home has specially wired alarm
equipment connected to the telephone line,
ensure the installation of this equipment does
not disable your alarm equipment. If you have
questions about what will disable alarm
equipment, consult your telephone company
or a qualified installer.
This equipment is hearing aid compatible as
defined by the FCC in 47 CFR Section 68.316.
When you hold the phone to your ear, noise
might be heard in your Hearing Aid. Some
Hearing Aids are not adequately shielded from
external RF (radio frequency) energy. If noise
occurs, use an optional headset accessory or
the speakerphone option (if applicable) when
using this phone. Consult with your audiologist
or Hearing Aid manufacturer about the
availability of Hearing Aids which provide
adequate shielding to RF energy commonly
emitted by digital devices.
WHEN PROGRAMMING EMERGENCY
NUMBERS AND(OR) MAKING TEST CALLS
TO EMERGENCY NUMBERS:
1. Remain on the line and briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call.For assistance, please visit www.panasonic.com/support19
Appendix 
						

							2. Perform such activities in the off-peakhours, such as early morning or late
evenings.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Privacy of communications may not be
ensured when using this phone.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate this device.
NOTE:
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.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.
Some cordless telephones operate at
frequencies that may cause interference to
nearby TVs and VCRs. To minimize orprevent such interference, the base of the
cordless telephone should not be placed near
or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is
experienced, move the cordless telephone
further away from the TV or VCR. This will
often reduce or eliminate interference.
FCC RF Exposure Warning:
R This product complies with FCC radiation
exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment.
R To comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, the hub must be installed
and operated 20 cm (8 inches) or more
between the product and all person’s body.
R This product may not be collocated or
operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
R For body-worn operation, the handset must
be used only with a non-metallic accessory.
Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure
requirements.
