Manufacturer’s warranty

We provide a manufacturer’s warranty for the device of 6 (six) months. If the PoScope Basic stops working you 
may contact us ([email protected]) to get the tech support request ID and send the device (you have to pay for 
shipping and handling) to us. The device may not have any external damage!

We repair your PoScope Basic by replacing or repair the internal PCB (and leaving your box) and send it back to 
you (we will pay for the shipping and handling). Please do not send PoScope Basic if it has any box damages. 
We shall not replace it in these cases or if the device has been damaged as the result of wrong firmware upgrade 
(not downloaded from PoLabs website or provided on the CD supplied with the PoScope Basic).

In case of support or repairs, please contact PoLabs: 

[email protected]

. Always write down serial number of 

your PoScope as a reference.

Please send only PoScope Basic without the cables, probes or Setup CD. 

Safety warning

The PoScope Basic ground is connected directly to the ground of your computer through the provided 
interconecting USB cable. As with most oscilloscopes and data loggers, this is done in order to minimize 
interference. You should take care not to connect the ground (screw terminal, outer shell of BNC or exposed 
metalwork) of the PoScope Basic to anything that may be at some voltage other than ground. This could cause 
damage to the unit,  to your computer or lead to injury to yourself and others. If in doubt, use a meter to check 
that there is no significant AC or DC voltage. 

For computers that do not have an earth connection (for example laptops), it must be assumed that PoScope 
Basic is not protected by an earth (in the same way a battery multimeter is not protected by an earth). 

The maximum input voltage range of any input is -20 to +20V. Any voltage in excess of ±30V may cause 
permanent damage to the oscilloscope or your computer.. 

The unit contains no user serviceable parts: repair or calibration of the unit requires specialized test equipment 
and must be performed by PoLabs, or their authorized distributors. 

Measurement category

PoScope basic is rated for use in measurement category I 

(EN61010 CAT I)

, which covers measurements on 

circuits not connected to the mains. You must not use your PoScope basic to make measurements on any circuit 
directly connected to the mains, unless you use a purpose built isolating probe rated for the appropriate voltage 
and measurements category.

Limitation of liability

7. YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT NEITHER ELECTRONICS INFOLINE 

NOR ANY OF ITS PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, SERVICE PROVIDERS, 
LICENSORS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES 
SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INDICENTAL, 
CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, 
DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS 
(EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), 
RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF (I) THE USE OF OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE 
SERVICE, (II) THE COST TO OBTAIN SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND/OR SERVICES RESULTING 
FROM ANY TRANSACTION ENTERED INTO ON THROUGH THE SERVICE, (III) 
UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR DATA TRANSMISSIONS, (IV) 
STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICE, OR (V) ANY
