Instructions on Electrical Safety
Caution
Risk of personal injury or damage to property due to an incorrect level of
safety
Connecting the Binoptometer® 4P with its non-medical electrical
equipment (e.g. data processing equipment) to a medical electrical
system must not result in a patient safety level below that prescribed by
DIN EN ISO 60601-1. If making this connection leads to the leakage
current threshold being exceeded, protective measures including a circuit
breaker must be in place.
Ensure that connections with non-medical devices are made correctly.
Use only a computer that meets the specifications given in this
instruction manual,
Use of a multiple socket extension cord
Risk of personal injury or material damage caused by unsafe multiple
socket extension cord
If you use a multiple socket extension cord to connect the Binoptometer® 4P
to the power supply, you must heed the following information:
Use an extension cord that complies with the requirements of DIN
EN ISO 60601-1: 20005, section 16.
Do not place the multiple socket extension cord on the floor.
Do not use more than one multiple socket extension cord.
Plug only the Binoptometer® 4P and the computer that is being used
with the unit (if applicable) into the multiple socket extension cord.
If you are using a multiple socket extension chord it has to be supplied
with a isolation transformer.
If you are using a new computer for the Binoptometer® 4P, you must have
the electrical safety checked. Call OCULUS Service for this purpose.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) / Cables
Risk of personal injury or damage to property due to electromagnetic
interference
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect medical
electrical equipment
.
Make sure that portable and mobile RF communications equipment
do not cause interference.
Recommendation: Maintain a minimum distance of 4 m. If the
distance is shorter, you must ensure that the Binoptometer® 4P
functions correctly.
