Product-specific safety instructions - WaveNet

WARNING

warning

Personal injury or damage to property due to non-redundant safety concept

The protective functions of your WaveNet system are only one element of an entire safety concept. They are not suitable as the only protection against hazards such as fire, burglary or similar.

  1. Make use of redundant systems to protect against your individual risks (burglar alarms, fire alarms and the like).
  2. Have a technical risk manager (Certified Security Manager or the like) create and evaluate a security concept.
  3. Please pay particular attention to relevant regulations on escape and rescue routes.

Impairment or failure of protective functions due to changed conditions

The activation of the protection functions in RingCast is based on wireless connections and Ethernet connections. Wireless connections in particular can be affected by changing environmental conditions (see Radio network und Challenges in wireless networks). This also influences the activation of the protective functions in the RingCast and can jeopardise the safety of persons and property that are additionally protected by the protective functions in the RingCast, for example.

  1. Test the protective functions at least once a month (see RingCast function test).
  2. If necessary, also observe other guidelines or regulations that are relevant for your locking system (especially for escape and rescue routes and fire protection. You are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with these guidelines and regulations).

Change in the sequence of emergency functions due to malfunctions

SimonsVoss and "Made in Germany" stand for maximum safety and reliability. In individual cases, however, malfunctions of your devices cannot be ruled out. This may pose a risk to the safety of persons and property, which are additionally protected by the protective functions in the RingCast.

  1. You should test your devices at least once a month (see Device function test Shorter intervals may also be required according to other regulations concerning your overall system).
  2. Test the protective functions at least once a month (see RingCast function test).

NOTE

notice

Redundant protection of the network infrastructure

In addition to SimonsVoss security measures, the network infrastructure in which you use WaveNet must also comply with current security standards.

  1. You can meet these security standards by, for example using virtual networks or active network monitoring (the list does not claim to be complete).
  2. talking to your IT infrastructure specialist.

Exclusion of liability for the consequences of changed environmental conditions

Ambient conditions can change and, despite regular testing, can interfere with the RingCast and its protective functions (see Radio network und Challenges in wireless networks). Neither SimonsVoss Technologies GmbH nor the product itself has influence on changing environmental conditions. The stability of the ambient conditions is a functional prerequisite. Therefore, the failure of protective functions can result in personal injury and damage to property. SimonsVoss Technologies GmbH shall not assume any liability for personal injury and material damage due to changing environmental conditions.

  1. Record the current ambient conditions and the current signal quality during the project planning to be carried out (see Signal quality und Check signal quality, see snapshot).
  2. Ensure by continuous monitoring that the ambient conditions do not change unexpectedly.
  3. Record the current ambient conditions and the current signal quality during the acceptance test to be performed (final snapshot).
