PREFACE 

 

Important Installation Information 

It is the purchasers’ responsibility to determine the suitability of this equipment and its derivatives for any given 
application, Scope cannot give specific advice in this manual, as each use will require independent evaluation. 

Scope has, wherever possible, employed extra safeguards to monitor the system’s performance. Certain system 
installations, operational requirements or budgets may, however, limit the effectiveness of these safeguards. Again, the 
suitability of the system for any given application must therefore be decided by the installer and their customer, relative 
to the application and risk. 

Good working practice dictates that a suitable system installation log must be generated, together with a record of the 
dates when the system has been manually checked, (with the aid of signal strength meters etc.) enabling the system 
performance to be compared with the original installation data. For UK equipment, Scope has no control of the use and 
application of the frequencies issued by OFCOM. Some equipment that is licensed may have greater protection than 
other equipment which is operated on a WT Act License Exempt basis. The supply of this equipment is governed by our 
standard terms and conditions of sale, which can be found on the reverse of all order acknowledgements*, proforma 
invoices*, delivery notes, price lists and invoices. Alternatively, these can be provided on request. 

* Faxed proforma invoices and quotations refer to “conditions available upon request”.
