RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not
installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, may cause interference to radio communication. It has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance
with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference when the equipment is oper-
ated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area
is likely to cause interference, in which case the user at his own expense will be
required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct the interference.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for com-
pliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission
from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of the Canadian
Department of Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les
limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la classe A prescrites dans le Règle-
ment sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par le ministère des Communications
du Canada.

Troubleshooting:
3. Todas las advertencias en el aparato eléctrico y en sus instrucciones de oper-
Multimode fiber optic cable contains an optical fiber with a light carrying “core” that
is only .0025 inches (62.5 microns) in diameter. Single mode fiber optic cable has an
even smaller “core”, only 00032 to .0004 inches (8-10 microns). This is smaller than
a human hair! Therefore, any minute particles of dirt or dust can easily block the fiber
from accepting or radiating light. To prevent this from happening, always use the
provided dust caps whenever optical connectors are exposed to air. It is also a good
idea to gently clean the tip of an optical connector with a lint-free cloth moistened
with alcohol whenever dust is suspected.
ación deben ser respetadas.
4. Todas las instrucciones de operación y uso deben ser seguidas.
5. El aparato eléctrico no deberá ser usado cerca del agua—por ejemplo, cerca
de la tina de baño, lavabo, sótano mojado o cerca de una alberca, etc.
6. El aparato eléctrico debe ser usado únicamente con carritos o pedestales que
sean recomendados por el fabricante.
7. El aparato eléctrico debe ser montado a la pared o al techo sólo como sea
The status of the VIDEO and AUDIO indicator LEDs should provide the first clue as
to the origin of an operational failure. If these are off, it usually means that the fiber is
broken or has too much attenuation. Next, be certain that the input and output signal
connections are correct.
recomendado por el fabricante.
8. Servicio—El usuario no debe intentar dar servicio al equipo eléctrico más allá
a lo descrito en las instrucciones de operación. Todo otro servicio deberá ser
referido a personal de servicio calificado.
If, after reviewing the above possibilities, the system is still not operating, please
contact the Black Box Tech Support for further assistance
9. El aparato eléctrico debe ser situado de tal manera que su posición no interfi-
era su uso. La colocación del aparato eléctrico sobre una cama, sofá, alfombra
o superficie similar puede bloquea la ventilación, no se debe colocar en libre-
ros o gabinetes que impidan el flujo de aire por los orificios de ventilación.
Maintenance:
The only maintenance of the AC1020A system that can be provided by the user is to
ascertain that the optical connectors are free of dust or dirt that could interfere with light
transmission and that electrical connections are secure and accurate. DANGER!Always
disconnect the transmitter power before removing the optical fiber from the unit! For
assistance with all other repairs, please contact Black Box technical support.
10. El equipo eléctrico deber ser situado fuera del alcance de fuentes de calor
como radiadores, registros de calor, estufas u otros aparatos (incluyendo am-
plificadores) que producen calor.

12. Precaución debe ser tomada de tal manera que la tierra fisica y la polarización
del equipo no sea eliminada.
13. Los cables de la fuente de poder deben ser guiados de tal manera que no sean
pisados ni pellizcados por objetos colocados sobre o contra ellos, poniendo
particular atención a los contactos y receptáculos donde salen del aparato.
14. El equipo eléctrico debe ser limpiado únicamente de acuerdo a las recomen-
daciones del fabricante.
15. En caso de existir, una antena externa deberá ser localizada lejos de las lineas
de energia.
16. El cable de corriente deberá ser desconectado del cuando el equipo no sea
usado por un largo periodo de tiempo.
17. Cuidado debe ser tomado de tal manera que objectos liquidos no sean derra-
mados sobre la cubierta u orificios de ventilación.
18. Servicio por personal calificado deberá ser provisto cuando:
A: El cable de poder o el contacto ha sido dañado; u
B: Objectos han caído o líquido ha sido derramado dentro del aparato; o
C: El aparato ha sido expuesto a la lluvia; o
D: El aparato parece no operar normalmente o muestra un cambio en su
desempeño; o
E: El aparato ha sido tirado o su cubierta ha sido dañada.

Indicator LEDs:
The transmitter and receiver units in the A1020A system each have three integral in-
dicator LEDs that are used to monitor the state of the unit. Their status is as follows:
TRANSMITTER and RECEIVER:
Power: (Green) Indicates that correct power has been applied.
TRANSMITTER:
Video: OFF: Indicates no video detected on the input.
BLINKING GREEN: Indicates either H or V sync detected at the input
but not on both.
STEADY GREEN: Indicates both H and V sync detected on the input.
Audio: OFF: Indicates no audio detected on the transmitter unit.
BLINKING: Indicates audio detected on the transmitter unit.
RECEIVER:
Video: OFF: Indicates no video detected over fiber and, as a result, no
video present on output.
BLINKING GREEN: Indicates either H or V sync detected over the
fiber but not both.
STEADY GREEN: Indicates both H and V sync detected over the fiber
and, as a result, video present on the output.
Audio: OFF: Indicates no audio detected over fiber and, as a result, no active
audio detected by the receiver unit.
BLINKING: Indicates audio detected over fiber and, as a result,
active audio detected by the receiver unit.
