TROUBLESHOOTING

Should you encounter installation difficulties or issues with device communication, the following checklist of common issues and causes should help resolve your issues. If you still continue to experience issues, please contact your local representative for further assistance.

Cable Not Carrying Signal

Active and Optical HDMI cables are directional. This means one end is labeled source or 1 and the other end is labeled TV or 2. The cable must be connected in the proper direction to work.
Swap cable and check if the problem persists.
If cable is faulty, please contact Pulse-Eight representative or your Installer.

WARRANTY PROCEDURE

The following policies covers all Pulse-Eight products.

Unless otherwise instructed, please do not open any of our products. Doing so will invalidate your warranty. As part of the troubleshooting procedure, you may be instructed to open the device, but you can only proceed with this once consent has been given.

To open a support ticket, please visit: www.pulse- eight.com/support.

WARRANTY TERMS & CONDITIONS

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS, AS WELL AS LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS THAT MAY APPLY TO YOU. YOUR RIGHTS AND THIS LIMITED WARRANTY

This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other legal rights that vary by state, province, or jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability under this Limited Warranty will not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

If the Product or a component incorporated within it is no longer available, Pulse-Eight may replace the Product with a similar product of similar function, at Pulse-Eight’s sole discretion. This is your sole and exclusive remedy for breach of this Limited Warranty. Any Product that has either been repaired or replaced under this Limited Warranty will be covered by the terms of this Limited Warranty for the longer of ninety (90) days from the date of delivery or the remaining Warranty Period. This Limited Warranty is transferable from the original purchaser to subsequent owners, but the Warranty Period will not be extended in duration or expanded in coverage for any such transfer.

This warranty does not cover consumable parts, including batteries unless damage is due to defects in materials or workmanship of the Product, or software (even if packaged or sold with the product). Pulse Eight recommends that you use only authorized service providers for maintenance or repair. Unauthorized use of the Product or software can impair the Product’s performance and may invalidate this Limited Warranty. Pulse-Eight does not warrant that operation of the Product will be error-free or uninterrupted or that the Product will in every case process all data correctly.
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
Except as stated above in this limited warranty, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Pulse-Eight disclaims all express, implied, and statutory warranties and conditions with respect to the product, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, also limits the duration of any implied warranties or conditions to the duration of this limited warranty.

In addition to the above warranty disclaimers, in no event will Pulse-Eight be liable for any consequential, incidental, exemplary, or special damages, including any damages for lost data or lost profits, arising from or relating to this limited warranty or the product, and Pulse Eight’s total cumulative liability arising from or related to this limited warranty or the product will not exceed the amount actually paid for the product by the original purchaser.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Pulse-Eight disclaims all liability of any kind of Pulse-Eight’s suppliers. The Pulse-Eight online services (“services”) may provide you with information (“product information”) regarding your product’s performance and/or peripherals connected to your product (“product peripherals”).
