Guarantee and Compensation

BARCO provides a guarantee relating to perfect manufacturing as part of the legally stipulated
terms of guarantee. On receipt, the purchaser must immediately inspect all delivered goods for
damage incurred during transport, as well as for material and manufacturing faults. BARCO must
be informed immediately in writing of any complaints.

The period of guarantee begins on the date of transfer of risks, in the case of special systems and
software on the date of commissioning, at the latest 30 days after the transfer of risks. In the event
of justified notice of complaint, BARCO can repair the fault or provide a replacement at its own
discretion within an appropriate period. If this measure proves to be impossible or unsuccessful,
the purchaser can demand a reduction in the purchase price or cancellation of the contract (redhibi­tion). All other claims, in particular those relating to compensation for direct or indirect damage,
and also damage attributed to the operation of software as well as to other services provided by
BARCO, being a component of the system or independent services, will be deemed invalid pro­vided the damage is not proven to be attributed to the absence of properties guaranteed in writing
or due to the intent or gross negligence on the part of BARCO.

If the purchaser or a third party carries out modifications or repairs on good delivered by BARCO,
or if the goods are handled incorrectly, in particular if the systems are commissioned or operated
incorrectly or if, after the transfer of risks, the goods are subject to influences not agreed upon in
the contract, all guarantee claims of the purchaser will be rendered invalid. Not included in the
guarantee coverage are system failures which are attributed to programs or special electronic cir­cuitry provided by the purchaser, e. g. interfaces. Normal wear as well as normal maintenance are
not subject to the guarantee provided by BARCO either.

The environmental conditions as well as the servicing and maintenance regulations specified in
this manual must be complied with by the customer.

system is a modular system, which holds a processor board, one to four input mod­ules and one to four output modules. Any combination of inputs and outputs is possible, i.e. you
may for example have two output cards, two video input cards and two RGB input cards installed.
This then offers you the possibility to display two video and two RGB sources anywhere within a
2x1 or 1x2 display matrix area.

– Standalone Setup

A VISU

PLUS

standalone system is mainly used in application areas where there is a need for dis­playing different information sources (Video or RGB) within a matrix of display systems (projec­tors or other display medium). Sources displayed may be moved, re-scaled and treated in a number
of other ways via control software, which is installed on a control PC. To control the functions of

V

ISU

and to locate and size the video and RGB windows an additional control PC is needed.
This control PC is operated with the Linux operating system.
The V

ISU

standalone product is almost identical to the VISU

product for EOS systems. The
functionality is largely the same, some minor hardware aspects together with some internal opera­tion differs between both products.
