The Welch Allyn Remote Monitoring Scale RPM-Scale100 is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment
specified below. The customer or the user of the Welch Allyn Remote Monitoring Scale RPM-Scale100 should assure
that it is used in such an environment.

Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects, and people.

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile
radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To
assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Welch Allyn Remote Monitoring Scale RPM-
Scale100 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Welch Allyn Remote Monitoring Scale RPM-
