Technical Support

We recommend entering your support request via the web based Online Support Centre as described below. If you prefer you can email requests to support@gdsinstruments.com where they will be automatically added to the support system and then allocated to a support engineer. We aim to reply to all support cases within 48 hours of the ticket being entered.



Online Support Centre

GDS has its own dedicated online support centre. Here you can find a host of product helpsheets, firmware / software downloads and log any support queries. Once logged, any query will be assigned a reference number and an engineer. A user can see the progress of any query online and have access to upload any relevant documents or make any necessary amendments to a query. 

                                                                    

Remote PC Support


Remote pc support works by GDS providing a secure link to a customer’s pc, thereby allowing GDS to take control. Once in control of the pc, GDS can help with any problems associated to software, installation, testing etc. GDS use a software provider called Team Viewer for this service.

Returning Equipment For Repair


In accordance with UK customs, any item or items that are sent to GDS from outside the UK that are required to be returned to the customer once repaired, must be sent to GDS with the correct customs codes and paperwork. Please ensure that the shipping company (i.e. dhl, tnt etc) are aware that they will be required to raise a custom entry document (c88) which must accompany the goods. Failure to do this may mean unnecessary duty is being charged on the shipment. Click here to download a Returns form.
