PREFACE

 

 
 
Equipment Applications

 

 

It is the user’s responsibility to determine the suitability of the Scope products for any given application.  Scope, 
including its subsidiaries and Distributors, cannot provide specific advice within this manual, as each application 
will require independent evaluation.  Common sense dictates that certain applications may require back up 
systems to cover in the event of mains or equipment failure. All applications should be thoroughly assessed by 
the installer in conjunction with the customer so as to minimize risk. Scope has no control of the use and 
application of the frequencies issued by the FCC.  Some equipment that is individually licensed may have a 
greater degree of protection than other equipment that is operated on a FCC License Assignment basis. The 
following information, however, may be of benefit.   
 

Equipment Testing. 

 

Range tests should be carried out at least once a week on portable radio equipment, more often when critical 
criteria apply. This should involve testing the unit past the limit of its required working range. Good working 
practice dictates that a suitable system installation log, covering both portable and fixed equipment must be 
generated, together with a record of the dates when the system has been manually checked and/or serviced, 
(with the aid of suitable test equipment etc.) enabling the system performance to be compared with the original 
installation data. 

 

The frequency of the tests required will vary between applications.  If portable equipment has been dropped or is 
worn by a person involved in an accident, the unit should be tested again before re-use.  It must be stressed that 
the physical range tests are essential and that any construction work or movement of plant or equipment could 
alter the signalling capability of the unit. Radio equipment, like any other requires servicing from time to time to 
ensure that it is operating to its optimum performance. It is therefore essential that equipment is inspected and 
tested by authorized service centers at least once a year.  
 

Literature 

 

Scope Marketing (Communications UK) Ltd, the manufacturer, in conjunction with it’s distributors operates a 
policy of continual improvement, and therefore reserve the right to modify or change any specifications without 
prior notice. 
 
While every possible care has been taken in the preparation of this manual, Scope does not accept any liability 
for technical or typographical errors or omissions contained herein, nor for incidental or consequential damage 
arising from the use of this material.

 

 

Installation

 

 

Installation must only be undertaken by an Approved contractor, who shall ensure that all work is carried out in 
compliance with the appropriate State and Federal Regulations. For mains powered equipment, a readily 
accessible isolating fuse or socket must be located within 1 meter of the equipment. 

 

Liability 

 
Scope does not accept liability for any damage or injury, howsoever caused as the result of misuse of this 
equipment. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the equipment is operated in the manner for which it 
was intended and that it is the correct item of equipment for the required task.
