Electromagnetic compatibility

Medical electrical devices are subject to special precautionary measures
Electromagnetic compatibility
with regard to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). They must be
installed and operated as specified in the document "Installation
Requirements".
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment may interfere with
medical electrical equipment. Therefore, the use of such devices (e.g.
cellular phones) in practice or hospital environments must be prohibited.
SIVISION digital and USB interface
The presence of electromagnetic interference in the vicinity of the
treatment center may cause image degradation and interruptions in the
data transmission via the USB interface to the PC. In such cases please
repeat the image recording or other operations.
In the event of heavy interference, it may be necessary to restart the PC.
It is therefore not recommended to use the PC for controlling other
devices that provide essential performance components.
Wireless foot control
The wireless foot control may interfere with other devices in the same
frequency band (2.4 GHz) or receive interfering signals from them. The
safe condition of the treatment center is guaranteed even if the wireless
transmission is compromised.

Electrostatic discharge

Electrostatic discharge
Protective measures
Electrostatic discharge (abbreviated: ESD – ElectroStatic Discharge)
Electrostatic discharge from people can damage electronic components
when the components are touched. Damaged components usually have
to be replaced. Repairs must be performed by qualified personnel.
Measures to protect against ESD include:
● Procedures to avoid electrostatic charging via
– air conditioning
– air humidification
– conductive floor coverings
– non-synthetic clothing
