However, there are a few things you have to consider:
• Some software packages installed on the gateway are neither
derived from nor licensed as FOSS like the bootloader, the
data logging andretrieval software and the Configurator
application. These packagesare not available in sourcecode
form and may not be redistributedwithout explicit written
permission of their respective copyright owners!
• Adcon provides support only for the A840 firmware packages
distributed by Adcon running on the gateway hardware.
Modified software or running the A840 firmware packages on
other hardware is not supported by Adcon.
• Most software packages distributed with the gateway were
modified by Adcon which means that they differ from the
version available on the project's web sites. The authors of
the original versions are not responsible for the packages
distributed by Adcon and usually will not provide support for
any packages other than those they distribute themselves.
• The software packages include disclaimers of liability in their
license terms. Read them carefully, especially if you want to
use, modify and/or distribute the software packages yourself.
