MULTICOM 5 PLUS INSTALLER MANUAL
23
Multicom does not install or connect the products, which may be used in conjunction with other
products not manufactured by Multicom; therefore Multicom cannot guarantee or warrant the
performance of the security system. Multicom will not be responsible for circumstances resulting from
the product’s inability to operate. Your security system should be considered as one of many tools
available to reduce risk and/or damage caused by burglary, fire or other emergencies. Other tools
include, but are not limited to, access controls, lock products, insurance coverage, fire prevention, fire
extinguishing devices and sprinkler systems.
We strongly recommend that your security alarm system be
tested and maintained on a regular basis,
and that you stay aware of new and improved Multicom
products and developments.
BEWARE:
Dealers, installers and/or others selling, distributing or advertising Multicom product(s) are not
authorised to modify this warranty or make any additional warranties that are binding on Multicom or
distributors and its affiliates without the written approval from Multicom.
Multicom may change the terms of its limited warranty, without notice, at its discretion.
WARNING:
Due to limitations of Alarm Systems, Multicom cannot guarantee the performance of the
security system and shall not be responsible for circumstances resulting from the product's inability to
operate. It must be understood that while your Multicom product is highly advanced and secure, it only
forms part of your total security installation and it does not offer any guaranteed protection against
burglary, fire or other emergency. This is due to a number of reasons, including, but not limited to,
inadequate or improper installation/positioning, sensor limitations, battery performance, wireless signal
interruption, inadequate maintenance, or the potential for communication mediums to be
compromised or circumvented. As a result, Multicom does not represent that the alarm system will
prevent personal injury or property damage, or in all cases provide adequate warning or protection.
Your security system should therefore be considered as one of many tools available to reduce risk
and/or damage of burglary, fire or other emergencies; such other tools include, but are not limited to
insurance coverage, fire prevention and extinguisher devices, and sprinkler systems. We also strongly
recommend you to regularly maintain your security systems and stay aware of new and improved
Multicom products and developments. For those customers who are using a security system connected
to a non-traditional telephone system, such as "Voice Over Internet Protocol" (VoIP) that converts the
voice signal from your telephone to a digital signal travelling over the Internet, you should be aware
that your alarm system may not function as effectively as with traditional telephone systems. For
example, if your VoIP equipment has no battery back-up, during a power failure your system's ability to
transmit signals to the central station may be compromised. Or, if your VoIP connection becomes
disabled, your telephone line monitoring feature may also be compromised. Other concerns would
include, without limitation, Internet connection failures, which may be more frequent than regular
telephone line outages. We therefore strongly recommend that you discuss these and other limitations
involved with operating an alarm system on a VoIP or other non-traditional telephone system with your
installation company. They should be able to offer or recommend measures to reduce the risks involved
and give you a better understanding. The Multicom range of communication products are designed to
detect all communication failures within the network and are designed to work effectively around
traditional telephone systems in addition to Non-Traditional Telephony such as VoIP, GPRS, 3G and new
communication mediums including the (NBN) National Broadband Network.
