How can I request support?

If you need technical support for an Adder product, you can request help by submitting a support ticket via the Product Support request form.  

You’ll be asked to provide your name and contact details, as well as specific information about your product (such as the product name/model, serial number, and firmware version if known) and a brief description of the issue you’re facing.

Before submitting a support request, please check the Adder Knowledge Base for articles which may help resolve your issue.

What is AIMCare?

AIMCare is an extended support and hardware coverage service for ADDERLink® INFINITY Manager (AIM) servers. It provides up to five years of coverage for your AIM hardware (applicable to the ASP-001 model of the AIM server).  

The key benefit of AIMCare is an advanced hardware replacement guarantee: if your AIM unit encounters a hardware issue that cannot be resolved remotely, Adder will ensure a replacement unit is shipped to you within one business day. This expedited replacement service, complete with license transfer, minimizes downtime in mission-critical environments.

What is AIMAssist?

AIMAssist is a premium support service designed for users of ADDERLink® INFINITY systems who need enhanced technical support and proactive assistance. AIMAssist provides global 24/7 telephone technical support for ADDERLink INFINITY installations.  

Subscribers to AIMAssist receive several advantages beyond standard support: around-the-clock access to Adder’s technical engineers, higher prioritization in the support call queue (meaning faster response/resolution times), regular scheduled remote check-in sessions to ensure your INFINITY setup is running smoothly and reduced-rate on-site support if an in-person visit is required.

Where can I find support articles for my product?

Adder maintains a Knowledge Base that contains a wealth of support articles, how-to guides, troubleshooting tips, and product manuals. 

The knowledge base is regularly updated with common questions and solutions, making it easy to find answers to most product-related queries. 

If you cannot find a specific answer in the support articles, you can always contact Adder’s support team for further help.

How do I download firmware updates?
Each product page on the Adder site has the latest firmware files (along with other resources) for that product. 
Simply navigate to the product’s page, scroll to Product Downloads, and click on the firmware link – you may be prompted to fill out a brief form, after which the firmware update will download.
Where can I find datasheets for a product?
Product datasheets are available on the specific product pages of Adder’s website. 
To access a datasheet, go to the relevant Adder product page and look for the Datasheet download in the Product Downloads section. (If no datasheet is listed under a product’s downloads, it means that one is not available for that product).
How can I arrange training for my team?

Adder offers a comprehensive training program through its Professional Services team to help your staff become proficient with Adder’s KVM solutions. The training follows a “train the trainer” approach – Adder’s experts will train key members of your team, ensuring that knowledge can be passed along to others internally, which saves time and costs on future training. 

Training sessions can be conducted on-site at your facilities or at one of Adder’s dedicated training centers, according to your preference. To arrange a training session for your team, contact Adder’s Professional Services team by filling out the inquiry form on the Professional Services page.

Does my product have a warranty?

Yes – all Adder hardware products include a two-year standard ‘Return to Base’ (RTB) warranty from the date of purchase. This means any manufacturing defects or failures that occur within the first two years are covered under warranty. 

Furthermore, Adder offers an Enhanced Warranty program if you wish to extend your coverage. With an enhanced warranty (purchased separately), you can extend the warranty up to a total of five years for your product. 

The enhanced warranty not only lengthens the coverage period but also guarantees an expedited repair service – for example, under the enhanced plan, a faulty product that you send back to Adder will be tested and repaired within five working days of receipt. This helps ensure minimal downtime for your equipment. (Always check the specific warranty terms provided with your product).

My product is faulty – how do I return it?
If you have a suspected fault with your Adder product, in the first instance get in touch with our technical support team who will assess and attempt to rectify the fault. If the issue cannot be resolved, they will be able to arrange for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) to initiate return/replacement.
