Preface
Important Installation Information
It is the purchasers’ responsibility to determine the suitability of this equipment and its derivatives for any given application. Any connection diagrams or usage information are
provided as examples only; each use will require independent evaluation. Advice regarding connections to/from 3
rd
party equipment should always be sought from the
equipment manufacturer. When used with fire alarm systems the configuration and performance of the F-Link system should be confirmed with the fire alarm System Designer
and all other Interested Parties to establish that it complies with the system design and Fire Risk Assessment. Any references made to Standards / Codes of Practice are
provided for information only, and although believed to be correct at time of publication are subject to change.
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.
Installation must only be undertaken by a competent person (defined as a person with relevant and current training and experience, with access to the requisite tools,
equipment and information, and capable of carrying out the task), who shall ensure that all work is carried out in compliance with national wiring regulations and applicable
standards. This instruction manual is intended for use only by persons with a reasonable knowledge of electrical and electronic equipment, industry standard conventions and
terminology.
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.
