Precautions for Use of Medical Telemeter
WARNING
 The LX-7120(G) transmitter must not be co-located or operated in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
 This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency
(RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF)
Exposure rules. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that
are deemed to comply without testing of specific absorption rate(SAR).
 Operation of LX-7120(G) requires the prior coordination with a
frequency coordinator designated by the FCC for the Wireless Medical
Telemetry Service.
 This radio frequency device is susceptible to interference from outside
sources. Interference may prevent the monitoring of patients connected
to this equipment. If a problem exists, contact your local service
representative.
 The LX-7120(G) transmits vital signs to the receiving monitor using
radio wave signal. Under unstable radio wave signals, the receiving
monitor will not generate any alarms. This situation may miss sudden
change in the patient's condition and may cause a serious accident.
Under unstable radio wave signals, check the patient status consistently
under this situation. To get stable radio wave signals, make sure to
have a proper telemetry installation.
CAUTION
 For installation, make sure the following.
 The medical institution (hereinafter referred to as the “Institution”) must
decide the telemetry installation plan for the medical department in order
to prevent interference and interference between transmitters (telemetry
based on destination country’s radio law). When telemetry has already
been installed and been used, radio format, frequency, and antenna power
are required to be examined to prevent interference.
 When using telemetry, which requires zone location, the Institution is to
set up the zones as an operation unit for each transmitter to prevent
electronic interference between telemetry throughout the Institution.
 When using telemetry, which requires zone location, display and identify
each prepared zone in the equipment.
 When laying receiver antenna for each transmitter, the Institution has to
examine the installation so that electronic interference does not occur.
 Based on the above examination result, the Institution should install each
receiver antenna as required.
 For management, make sure to follow the precautions below.
 The Institution should appoint a person (hereinafter referred to as the
“Overall Manager”) to manage the wireless channels for the whole
Institution.
