ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC)
Electromagnetic compatibility with surrounding devices should be assessed when using the device.
An electronic device can either generate or receive electromagnetic interference. Testing for
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) has been performed on the device according to the international
standard for EMC for medical devices (IEC 60601-1-2). This IEC standard has been adopted in Europe
as the European Norm (EN 60601-1-2).
The device should not be used adjacent to, or stacked on top of other equipment. If the device must be
used adjacent to or stacked on top of other equipment, verify that the device operates in an acceptable
manner in the configuration in which it will be used.
Fixed, portable, and mobile radio frequency communications equipment can affect the performance of
medical equipment. See appropriate EMC table for recommended separation distances between the
radio equipment and the device.
The use of accessories and cables other than those specified by Welch Allyn may result in increased
emissions or decreased immunity of the device.
