1.0 Overview

The standard term of a Product Support Subscription is one year and is renewable a. For each year, it provides free, on demand Software Maintenance (free update and upgrade downloads from our website [section 1.2]), discounted pricing on CAMI customization services, access to a loaner b, access to for-fee expedite service (not available for HVX repair service or for unsubscribed testers) c, and eight hours of free Technical Support per year. This support includes one hour of virtual, instructor-led training e (value $200). Subscribed systems are eligible to receive support via remote connectivity software f with Tech Support connecting to your system to perform diagnostics and guidance.

In addition to providing access to a loaner and expedite service, this product support subscription further assists Hardware Maintenance by including a one-year Warranty on the test fixture and any associated hardware (such as connector boards g): Any electronic or mechanical failures that do not result from accident, abuse, wear-out, improper packaging, or lack of maintenance will be corrected at no charge to the customer. h

Expired subscriptions may be reactivated (sections 2.1.1, 2.2.1). Subscription is not required for tester operation.


Customers who purchase their tester or Product Support Subscription renewal through an International Distributor must contact that distributor for subscription matters and service.

Update your software easily and at any time to benefit from our latest features, to ensure compatibility with your latest computer, and to maintain a recommended consistent software platform across all of your CableEye testers. We continually improve and advance the software by adding new capabilities, adding new reporting forms, ensuring compatibility with the latest Windows operating systems, and correcting bugs reported to us by our customers. All software updates and upgrades are backwards compatible with every USB tester we have ever made. Software upgrades include any optional software previously purchased with your system such as the PinMap ™ fixture editor, Connector Designer ™ connector editor, or Autobuild ™ guided assembly modules. Customized software is excluded (section 4.0).


2.0 Product Support Subscription Renewal and Reactivation

Subscriptions can be renewed and even reactivated if expired. For HVX series testers, the warranty element is dependent on the age of the tester.


2.1 Standard Product Support Subscription Renewal

Before the end of the subscription period, you may purchase a further one-year extension. Product support subscription renewal continues coverage as per our standard support subscription unless the product support subscription with HVX limited warranty applies (see section 2.2).

When purchasing a new tester, you may order the extended subscription in advance for up to 3 additional years (i.e. a total subscription period of 5 years from date of purchase) to ensure future coverage at the same price.

Failure to renew, by intent or oversight, will result in lapse of the subscription and loss of any benefits that it would otherwise provide.


2.1.1 Renewing an Expired Product Support Subscription

Expired subscriptions may be renewed with a reinstatement fee. If your current software is v5.5 or earlier, you will also need to purchase a software upgrade to reactivate the subscription.

See 2.2 and 2.2.1 for additional information specific to HVX series testers. Contact us for details.


2.2 Product Support Subscription with HVX Limited Warranty

For HVX series testers, standard product support subscriptions can be renewed for three more years (i.e. a total subscription period of 5 years). Thereafter, annually renewable subscriptions with limited warranties are available. The limited warranty is identical to the standard warranty except that relay boards are excluded.


2.2.1 Renewing an Expired HVX Product Support Subscription

Further to section 2.1.1, an HVX-series tester will be reinstated under a product support subscription with HVX limited warranty (section 2.2) when the tester product support subscription has lapsed for a year or more, or if the tester is five years old or more at the time of renewal.


3.0 Contracts for Product Support Subscription and/or Calibration

For customers with multiple CableEye testers: Save 15% on individual renewal pricing and simplify management of your testers by setting up a yearly contract for all of them — to include support subscription, calibration, or both. Eliminate the hassle of continually renewing individual testers as they expire at different times through the year.

As per best practice in IT management, we highly recommend you maintain a consistent software platform across all of your testers. A support subscription contract is the most economical way for you to keep your software current and consistent across them all.

Contact us for details.


4.0 Warranty of Custom Deliverables

Custom cable and wire harness interfaces (including customized Light Director ™ light-guided connector assembly fixtures), are warrantied to be free from defects in design or construction for one year following completion of the work and shipment to the customer. We will correct at no charge to the customer any electronic or mechanical failures that do not result from accident, abuse, wear-out, or lack of maintenance.
