When establishing an electrical connection with other devices and when operating the device on a
portable multiple socket outlet, ensure compliance with IEC 60601-1 in the currently valid version.
To maintain conformity with the standard, so-called "decoupled interfaces" are provided for this
case for the RJ-45 port (LAN1) and, depending on the configuration, one or both RS232 ports. Data
can be transmitted via these galvanic isolators without a direct electrical connection. From an elec-
trical point of view, the connection of medical devices is permitted at these decoupled interfaces.
At the same time, a functional unit is created when exchanging data with other devices. This
applies in particular if this functional unit has a medical purpose (e.g. control of infusion pumps by
the device, connection of application parts). The validity of any assured standard conformities and
properties of the device would not extend to the new functional unit. Instead, the person placing
the new functional unit on the market is responsible for its conformity to applicable regulations
and standards.
Should the device be brought into contact with other devices, unforeseen interactions or even
malfunctions may occur on one or both devices.

3.2 Device environment, safety and handling instructions
Please observe the safety instructions compiled below to avoid fire, electric shocks, injuries and
damage to the device.
Protect the unit from
• exposure to strong infrared radiation, such as direct sunlight,
• strong magnetic fields, such as those occurring in the immediate vicinity of an MRI,
• the impact of strong electromagnetic radiation,
• exposure to strong ionizing radiation, such as occurs at the C-arm of an X-ray machine,
• as well as from strong shocks and vibrations over longer periods of time.
The device may only be operated under the following environmental conditions:
Operation
Temperature 0 to 40 °C
32 to 104 °F
Humidity 10 to 90%
non-condensing
Height 0 to 3.048 m
0 to 10,000 ft
Pressure 105 to 70 kPa
Store the device for three hours at its new operating location before commissioning if the tem-
perature difference during transport is more than 10 °C. Rapid temperature changes can cause
damage to the device, e.g. due to condensation.
Avoid displaying the same screen content for an extended period of time. Otherwise, TFT displays
may show afterimages at least temporarily (image sticking effect).
3.3 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
The use of cables and accessories other than those supplied may adversely affect EMC. Under
certain circumstances, this may mean that compliance with the limit values assured at the time of
delivery can no longer be assumed.
Output lines intended for direct connection to lines in the outdoor area are not covered within the
scope of the warranted EMC properties of the device. Additional tests may be necessary for this
purpose.
Stacking devices and mounting them in close proximity to other electrical devices may cause
interference and malfunction of both devices. Ensure sufficient distance or appropriate shielding
between the devices.
