Electromagnetic Compatibility
The performance of this device under electromagnetic environment complies with IEC60601-1-2
(1993).
Precautions for Safe Operation under Electromagnetic Influence
CAUTION
If any sorts of electromagnetic wave, magnetic field, or static electricity exist
around the device, noise interference or malfunction of the device may occur.
If any unintended malfunction or noise occurs during monitoring, check the
magnetic influence and take appropriate countermeasures.
The following are examples of the common cause and countermeasures.
?
Cellular Phone
The radio wave may cause malfunction to the device.
Cellular phones and radio sets should be turned off in the room (building)
where medical device is located.
?
Static Electricity
In a dry environment (room), static electricity is likely to occur. Take the
following countermeasures.
?
Both operator and patient should remove any static electricity before
entering the room.
?
Humidify the room.
?
Lightning
?
A lightning nearby may induce excessive voltage to the equipment. If any
danger is suspected, use the uninterruptible power supply system.
?
High frequency noise interference from other device through the power outlet
?
Check where the noise is originated and remove it using filtering device,
etc.
?
Stop using the device that is originating the noise.
?
Use other power outlet.
EMC Guidance
This equipment complies with IEC60601-1-2 (1993). However, if portable transmitter or wireless LAN
equipment is used extremely nearby, the electromagnetic influence may largely exceed the compliance
level and may cause unexpected phenomenon such as noise interference on the waveform, etc.
Therefore, this equipment should be used in a location specified by each medical institution.
If any unexpected noise interference on the waveform or failure to the peripheral device occurs, stop
using the equipment and follow the instruction of the technician.
The following is the information relating to EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility).
(When using this equipment, verify that it is used within the environment specified below.)
