•
Before connecting an external device, such as a computer, printer, monitor, key-
board, mouse or other devices, make sure that they comply with the EN
60950
-
1
standard and have the CE marking.
•
Connecting electrical equipment to the device actually results in the creation of
medical equipment, and may jeopardize safety.
•
When SOLOS is installed in rooms for medical use, the PC and the connected printer
must be powered using an IEC
60601
-

compliant insulating transformer.
•
If SOLOS is installed in rooms for medical use without a computer, it is not necessary
to use an insulating transformer.
•
Do not use mobile phones or other devices not compliant with the requirements of
class B EMC in the vicinity of SOLOS.
•
Every external device that has to be connected to SOLOS must have a connection
cable (USB or LAN) with a maximum length of
3 m
.
The purpose of SOLOS connection to an IT network is data export and remote technical
assistance.
The SOLOS USB port must be connected to printer with USB or LAN interface. Ask
Topcon technical assistance for printer driver installation.
The SOLOS can be connected to a Local Area Network (LAN) through the LAN connector.
The network must have Ethernet protocol (IEEE
802
.
3
). Ask Topcon technical assistance
and the system administrator for SOLOS and network settings.
Connection of SOLOS to a computer network that includes other equipment could result
in previously unidentified RISKS; identify, analyze, and control such RISKS (refer to IEC
60601
-

:
2005
).
Subsequent changes to a computer network could introduce new RISKS and require new
analysis.
Changes to the computer network include:
•
changes in computer or data network configuration;
•
connection of additional items to computer network;
•
disconnecting items from computer network;
•
update of equipment connected to computer network;
•
upgrade of equipment connected to computer network.
The term computer network used here corresponds to the term network/data coupling in
