WARRANTY/RMA

Warranty Statement

Datapath provides a return to manufacturer warranty on all its products for a standard 36 month period. It is 
important that RMA procedures are followed prior to products being returned as often issues can be resolved 
quickly without the need for products being returned.

RMA Returns Policy

If your Datapath product is not working as you expect, we recommend that you contact Datapath Ltd in the 
first instance for support. Many issues that may first appear as hardware faults are actually installation or set-up 
problems and can normally be resolved without having to ship any hardware back to us. This route is therefore 
often the quickest, easiest and cheapest way of solving the problems that you are experiencing. Please email                   

[email protected]

 including as much detail regarding the failure as possible (for example: system description, 

signal types, input or output resolutions and any other relevant background information).

It is essential for you to know the serial number of the product(s) when contacting us.

If it appears that the fault is most likely to be hardware related, please email 

[email protected]

 stating the serial 

number and as much additional information regarding the nature of the failure as possible. Detailed explanation of 
the fault will help us to better identify the problem and will direct additional focused testing if necessary. We will then 
issue an 

RMA Number 

to you.

At the time that the 

RMA Number

 is issued we will inform you of the warranty status of the product and the cost of 

the repair - see paragraph (b) below. The product should then be returned, at your cost, to Datapath Ltd following the 
steps below.

There are 4 possible scenarios when a product is returned to us:

(a)    The product is in warranty and is either found to be genuinely faulty or no fault is found. In these cases, the 

product will be repaired as necessary or replaced by a new or previously repaired product and returned to you 
at our cost.

(b)    The product is out of warranty and is found to be faulty. The product, if possible, will be repaired or replaced 

at fixed cost, as stated in the RMA authorisation email. To cover this payment you will be required to either 
provide a Purchase Order or Credit Card details when the product is returned to us (we will not issue an invoice 
or charge the credit card until the repair has been completed and is about to be returned to you).

(c)   The product is in warranty but is found to be damaged by misuse. This will be treated as (b) above.

(d)    The product is out of warranty and is obsolete. In the unlikely situation that the product can be neither repaired 

nor replaced, because some of it is components are obsolete and we have no swap-out stock left, then the 
product will either be returned to you or disposed of at your request with no charge.
