Reading the sentence above the operative terms are generates AND uses. And, because of the AND, since we do not generate then it makes no difference if we use the signals. My translation is we do not generate therefore Part 15 does not apply to this specific product.

I doubt you'd get away with that if the device actually caused interference. The logic is that it and the output cable act as an antenna. So, *exactly* what goes down the cable? First, is it balanced or unbalanced? If balanced, emission would be minimal, but it probably isn't balanced. So, are these 'pulses' bursts of sine waves, half-cycles of sine waves or rectangular pulses with fast edges? If the latter, you should do a pre-test to see if there are significant emissions in the frequency range controlled by Part 15.
