Connections to IT networks
Applies to:
– Evita Infinity V500
– Babylog VN500
– Evita V300
Data can be exchanged in an IT network using
wired and wireless technologies. IT networks in-
clude all data interfaces (e.g., RS232, LAN, USB,
printer interface) described in standards and con-
ventions.
During operation, this device can exchange infor-
mation with other devices by means of IT networks
and supports the following functions:
– Display of waveforms and parameter data
– Signaling of alarms
– Transfer of device settings and patient data
– Service mode, access to logbooks
Connecting this device to a network that incorpo-
rates other devices or making subsequent changes
to that network can lead to new risks for patients,
users, and third parties. Before the device is con-
nected to the network or the network is changed,
these risks must be identified, analyzed, and eval-
uated, and appropriate measures taken.
Examples of subsequent changes to the network:
– Changing the network configuration
– Removing devices from the network
– Adding new devices to the network
– Performing upgrades or updates on devices
that are connected to the network
