myCordella™
Patient Reader may be interfered with by other equipment generating
electromagnetic fields. When possible, avoid using the system while simultaneously using the
equipment within ~5 feet/1.5 meters such as: laptop computers, tablets, e-readers, cell
phones, cordless phones, wireless routers, hair dryers, electric shavers, refrigerators, home
stereos, alarm-clock radios, air conditioners, electric ovens, washers, dryers, dishwashers,
televisions, microwaves, or walkie talkies (450MHz devices) within ~10 feet/3 meters.
•
The Reader requires special precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and
needs to be placed into service according to the EMC information provided. If interference is
noted, remove or stop using the interfering equipment.
•
Use only the cables and accessories provided. The use of accessories, transducers or cables
other than those specified or provided as replacement parts, may result in
decreased
immunity of the system, inaccurate readings, damage to the system, injury to user, or
improper operation.
•
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and
external antennas) should be used no closer than ~5 feet/1.5 meters to any part of the
Reader. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of the Reader could result.
•
Under certain conditions, the Reader's surface may exceed 41°C. If the Reader becomes too
warm to hold comfortably, place it back in the Docking Station and wait for several hours for it
to cool. If the Reader remains too warm to hold comfortably for more than a day, contact
customer service.
