Repair and Exchange Program

Our DSA system is a modular design that can be serviced & repaired in the field by your maintenance staff if a problem does arise. Just remove the cover, unplug the DSA module, Install the replacement. Within 2-minutes the DSA is back to normal.

We have a repair/exchange module that can be shipped overnight to minimize your down time. Also, if (6) or more units are purchased, we will include one (1) spare module free of charge that can be ready to installed at moments notice, so you will always “Be Heard”.

Warranty

The Patent Pending DSA is warranted to be free from defects in manufacturing for 2-year from purchase date, except for the microphone. Any failure to any part of the DSA will be replaced by CSS, a CSS Service Tech, or by overnight UPS delivery to the client. Warranty is limited to product defect or failure. Warranty does not cover any abuse, misuse, normal wear and tear, flood, fire, or rain damage caused by missing screws. Please Note: CSS does not take responsibility for any non-working message that may have caused damage or accident to person(s) or property caused by a non-working DSA. This system is a tool, all safety announcements are the responsibility of the facilities owner, the operator. CSS will warranty the repairs for 90-days, and the shipping with a repair/exchange unit at no charge. After the New DSA3 warranty has expired, a repaired/exchange unit will sent at a flat repair rate charge with overnight shipping.

Repair/Exchange

For warranty or non-warranty for a DSA3 unit that is not working, do not attempt to repair yourself. Commercial Sound Services (CSS) has a repair/exchange program.

REMOVAL
The entire inside component unit can be removed & installed within 1-minute. If the business contacts CSS before 3pm CST, CSS will overnight a replacement unit. The DSA is designed to be replaced easily in the field by:

  1. Unlatch & open the DSA3 control button door.
  2. Unplug the (2) quick disconnect connectors.
  3. Remove the (2) screws holding the module & mounting plate to the enclosure.
  4. Do Not Remove The Module From The Mounting Plate, a replacement module will come already on a mounting plate for a fast replacement.

  1. Replace the DSA3 Module & mounted plate with the replacement module and plate.
  2. Install the (2) Module/Plate mounting screws.

  6. Close & latch the control button door.
