No other licensee use, other than required testing, is permitted.
Licensees must take appropriate precautions to ensure that. the telephone is readily available for the purpose described here and for monthly tests.
Licensees should ensure that the system is not used for other purposes.
The development
'nd implementation of appropriate precautions is left to the discretion of the
