WARNINGS & NOTICES
Ness Corporation manufacturing processes are accredited to ISO9001 quality standards and all possible care and
diligence has been applied during manufacture to ensure the reliable operation of this product. However there are
various external factors that may impede or restrict the operation of this product in accordance with the product’s
specification.
These factors include, but are not limited to:
1. Erratic or reduced radio range (if radio accessories are installed). Ness radio products are sophisticated low
power devices, however the presence of in-band radio signals, high power transmissions or interference caused
by electrical appliances such as Mains Inverters, Wireless Routers, Cordless Phones, Computers, TVs and other
electronic devices may reduce radio range performance. While such occurrences are unusual, they are possible. In
this case it may be necessary to either increase the physical separation between the Ness receiver and other devices
or if possible change the radio frequency or channel of the other devices.
2. Unauthorised tampering, physical damage, electrical interruptions such as mains failure, electrical spikes or lightning.
3. Solar power inverters are a known source of electrical interference. Please ensure that this product and all associated
cabling is installed at least 3 metres away from a solar power inverter and its cabling.
4. While SMS reporting is a powerful and useful feature it is dependent on the integrity and availability of the cellular
network. As with any SMS message it is possible that SMS monitoring reports may be delayed or fail to be
delivered. Such failures are a function of the cellular network/s and beyond the control of Ness Corporation. Ness
recommends central station monitoring as your primary monitoring path.
WARNING: Installation and maintenance to be performed only by qualified service personnel.
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries in accordance with
local regulations.
