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 or OFCOM. 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. 
 

 
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 
centres at least once a year. 
 

Scope Communications UK Ltd, the manufacturer, in conjunction with its 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. 
 

 

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.
