reasonable number of attempts will be limited to a replacement of the product, as the exclusive
remedy for breach of warranty. Under no circumstances shall Digital Security Controls be liable
for any special, incidental, or consequential damages based upon breach of warranty, breach of
contract, negligence, strict liability, or any other legal theory. Such damages include, but are not
limited to, loss of profits, loss of the product or any associated equipment, cost of capital, cost
of substitute or replacement equipment, facilities or services, down time, purchaser’s time, the
claims of third parties, including customers, and injury to property. The laws of some jurisdictions
limit or do not allow the disclaimer of consequential damages. If the laws of such a jurisdiction
apply to any claim by or against DSC, the limitations and disclaimers contained here shall be to the
greatest extent permitted by law. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so that the above may not apply to you.

Disclaimer of Warranties

This warranty contains the entire warranty and shall be in lieu of any and all other warranties,
whether expressed or implied (including all implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose) and of all other obligations or liabilities on the part of Digital Security Controls.
Digital Security Controls neither assumes responsibility for, nor authorizes any other person
purporting to act on its behalf to modify or to change this warranty, nor to assume for it any other
warranty or liability concerning this product. This disclaimer of warranties and limited warranty are
governed by the laws of the province of Ontario, Canada.

WARNING: Digital Security Controls recommends that the entire system be completely tested on a
regular basis. However, despite frequent testing, and due to, but not limited to, criminal tampering
or electrical disruption, it is possible for this product to fail to perform as expected.

Out of Warranty Repairs

Digital Security Controls will at its option repair or replace out-of-warranty products which are
returned to its factory according to the following conditions. Anyone returning goods to Digital
Security Controls must first obtain an authorization number. Digital Security Controls will not
accept any shipment whatsoever for which prior authorization has not been obtained.

Products which Digital Security Controls determines to be repairable will be repaired and returned.
A set fee which Digital Security Controls has predetermined and which may be revised from time to
time, will be charged for each unit repaired.

Products which Digital Security Controls determines not to be repairable will be replaced by the
nearest equivalent product available at that time. The current market price of the replacement
product will be charged for each replacement unit.

WARNING – READ CAREFULLY

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is
your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances,
however, involving fire, burglary, or other types of emergencies where it may not provide
protection. Any alarm system of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate
as expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these reasons may be:

Inadequate Installation

© 2020 Johnson Controls. All rights reserved.

33HSM2HOST 2-Way Wireless Transceiver Installation Manual

A security system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protection. Every
installation should be evaluated by a security professional to ensure that all access points and areas
are covered. Locks and latches on windows and doors must be secure and operate as intended.
Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other building materials must be of sufficient strength and
construction to provide the level of protection expected. A reevaluation must be done during
and after any construction activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or police department is highly
recommended if this service is available.

Criminal Knowledge

This system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time of
manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal intent to develop techniques which reduce the
effectiveness of these features. It is important that a security system be reviewed periodically to
ensure that its features remain effective and that it be updated or replaced if it is found that it does
not provide the protection expected.

Access by Intruders

Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade
detection by moving through an area of insufficient coverage, disconnect a warning device, or
interfere with or prevent the proper operation of the system.

Power Failure

Control units, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other security devices require an
adequate power supply for proper operation. If a device operates from batteries, it is possible for
the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be charged, in good condition
and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will
render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length
are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a
security system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system
test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

Failure of Replaceable Batteries

This system’s wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life
under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment,
usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large
temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has
a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail
to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating
condition.

Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects
placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal
interference.

System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or
temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct
operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm
system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

Smoke Detectors

Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants of a fire for a
number of reasons, some of which follow. The smoke detectors may have been improperly installed
or positioned. Smoke may not be able to reach the smoke detectors, such as when the fire is in
a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors may not detect
smoke from fires on another level of the residence or building.

HSM2HOST 2-Way Wireless Transceiver Installation Manual34

© 2020 Johnson Controls. All rights reserved.

Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke detectors
cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of
fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping
gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with
matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is
insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

Motion Detectors

Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in their respective
installation instructions. They cannot discriminate between intruders and intended occupants.
Motion detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They have multiple beams of detection
and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by these beams. They cannot
detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceilings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors
or windows. Any type of tampering whether intentional or unintentional such as masking, painting,
or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, windows or any other part of the detection
system will impair its proper operation.

Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature. However their
effectiveness can be reduced when the ambient temperature rises near or above body temperature
or if there are intentional or unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection area. Some of
these heat sources could be heaters, radiators, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents,
lighting and so on.

Warning Devices

Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone
sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If warning devices are located on a different level
of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened.
Audible warning devices may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios,
televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible warning devices,
however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain
periods of time. Also an intruder may cut the telephone line or defeat its operation by more
sophisticated means which may be difficult to detect.

Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will
not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely
manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time to protect the occupants or
their belongings.

Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may
fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be found by
regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested weekly and immediately
after a break-in, an attempted break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind of
construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices,
keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the
system.
