Introduction

Advantech AMT Limited recommend that users return faulty

 

INTRAC-305 units to Advantech AMT Ltd. for repair.

 

Advantech AMT Ltd. have a specially equipped repair facility

 

and are able to repair and return a unit rapidly if required.

 

However if the problem is of an intermittent nature it may be

 

beneficial to allow us to soak test the unit for a longer period.

 

A replacement unit may be available from Advantech AMT

 

Ltd. during the repair period. Please ask for details of this

 

service.

 

Repairs carried out by Advantech AMT Ltd. are warranted for

 

90 days.

 

For those users who would prefer to repair their own unit this

 

section is intended to help with locating the faults. However :-

 

Advantech AMT LIMITED ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY

 

OR LIABILITY FOR ANY HARM CAUSED TO ANY THIRD

 

PARTY PERSONNEL FROM WORKING INSIDE THE

 

INTRAC-305.

 

Advantech AMT LIMITED ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY

 

OR LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED TO THE

 

INTRAC-305 BY ANY THIRD PARTY PERSONNEL AS A

 

DIRECT OR INDIRECT RESULT OF THIS SECTION OF

 

THIS MANUAL.

 

ANY THIRD PARTY WORK INSIDE THE INTRAC-305

 

DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD WILL INVALIDATE

 

THE WARRANTY

 

Because the INTRAC-305 forms part of a system, parts of

 

which respond to signals from the INTRAC-305 and parts of

 

which send signals to the INTRAC-305, deciding whether a

 

fault lies with the INTRAC-305 or the external equipment can

 

be difficult.

 

The simplest method to prove if the fault lies with the

 

INTRAC-305 or some other equipment is to replace the

 

INTRAC with a spare unit. However care must be taken in

 

such a case that any fault with the external equipment does

 

not cause damage to the replacement INTRAC. Also you

 

must ensure that the replacement unit is set correctly for the

 

installation.
