Technical Support
We want you to get the maximum performance from your products. So
if you run into technical difficulties, we are here to help. For most
frequently asked questions you can easily find answers in your
product documentation. These answers are normally a lot more
detailed than the ones we can give over the phone.
So please consult this manual first. If you still cannot find the answer,
gather all the information or questions that apply to your problem and,
with the product close at hand, call your dealer. Our dealers are well
trained and ready to give you the support you need to get the most
from your Advantech products. In fact, most problems reported are
minor and are able to be easily solved over the phone.
In addition, free technical support is available from Advantech
engineers every business day. We are always ready to give advice on
application requirements or specific information on the installation and
operation of any of our products.

Product Warranty
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its
products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for
two year from the date of purchase.
This warranty does not apply to any product which have been
repaired or altered by other than repair personnel authorized by
Advantech, or which have been subject to misuse, abuse, accident or
improper installation. Advantech assumes no liability as a conse-
quence of such events under the terms of this Warranty.
Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous
testing, most of our customers never need to use our repair service. If
an Advantech product ever does prove defective, it will be repaired or
replaced at no charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty
repairs, you will be billed according to the cost of replacement materi-
als, service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more
details.
If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered (e.g. type
of PC, CPU speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and
software used etc.). Note anything abnormal and list any on-screen
messages you get when the problem occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your
manual, product, and any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, you have to request an
RAM number. When requesting an RMA (Return Material Authori-
zation) number, please access ADVANTECH’s RMA web site:
http://www.advantech.com.tw/rma. If the web sever is shut down,
please contact our office directly. You should fill in the “Problem
Repair Form”, describing in detail the application environment,
configuration, and problems encountered. Note that error descrip-
tions such as “does not work” and “failure” are so general that we
are then required to apply our internal standard repair process.

4. Carefully pack the defective product, a completely filled-out Repair
and Replacement Order Card and a photocopy of dated proof of
purchase (such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A
product returned without dated proof of purchase is not eligible for
warranty service.
5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the packageand
ship it prepaid to your dealer.
