The Bigfoot Unity
Diabetes Management System User Guide | Appendix C
C.11 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Bigfoot Unity has been tested and found to be appropriate for use
at home. In most cases, Bigfoot Unity should not interfere with other
home electronic devices if used as instructed. However, the Caps,
Sensor, Meter, and your phone give off radio frequency (RF) energy.
The low level of RF energy emitted by the system is not likely to cause
interference in nearby electronic equipment. However, if not used
correctly, these Bigfoot Unity devices may interfere with your TV, radio,
or other electronic devices that receive RF signals.
In addition, except for your Bigfoot Unity-related devices, other
electronic wireless devices that are in use nearby, such as another cell
phone or a wireless network, may prevent or delay the transmission
of data between the different devices that make up the Bigfoot Unity
System. If you nd that glucose values are not sent to your White Cap
from the Meter, or if Sensor or Cap data is not being sent to the App,
it may be due to electromagnetic interference. To avoid interference,
you may be able to move to a different location to Use Bigfoot Unity.
Alternatively, you could turn off other nearby electronic devices or
antennas to avoid interference. Similarly, if you nd that the White Cap
will not scan the Sensor, try moving to another location.
If you experience problems receiving data on your Cap or App after
moving Bigfoot Unity away from any potential source of interference,
contact Bigfoot Customer Care at (551) 244-3668.
Special precautions must be taken to avoid increased emissions of RF
or decreased immunity to RF, including:
Installing and using Bigfoot Unity in accordance with the instructions
provided in this User Guide.
Using only accessories, transducers, and cables specied by
Bigfoot Biomedical.
Avoiding using Bigfoot Unity adjacent to other electrical equipment,
or if adjacent use is necessary, Bigfoot Unity should be observed to
verify normal system operation.
Not making any modications to Bigfoot Unity components that are
not approved by Bigfoot Biomedical.
