Precautions for Operation with other Devices
Use only accessories and other parts recommended or supplied by SCHILLER AG. Use
of other than recommended or supplied parts may result in injury, inaccurate information
and/or damage to the unit.
Externally connected units must use the same common earth.
Externally connected units must use an original SCHILLER interface cable.
If several units are coupled, there is a danger of summation of leakage currents. When
two or more units are coupled together, an isolation transformer must be used in the
mains supply.
The AT-102 complies with EMC regulations for medical products which affords protection
against emissions and electrical interference. However, special care must be exercised
when the unit is used with high frequency equipment.
There is no danger when using the ECG unit simultaneously with electrical stimulation
equipment. However, the stimulation units should only be used at a sufficient distance
from the electrodes. In case of doubt, the patient should be disconnected from the
recorder.
To avoid possible interference from the Ergometer when carrying out an exercise test, it
is recommended that both the AT-102 and the Ergometer are connected to the same
common ground.
