(E) Using a Network Storage Device

Introduction

This appendix provides safety information, requirements, recommendations and
configuration instructions for using a network attached storage device (NAS device), also
known as a network drive, with Stratus OCT. These instructions provide requirements and
recommendations for the NAS device, but are generic with respect to brand, the choice of
which is at the discretion of the user. You can attach the NAS device directly to the Stratus
OCT Ethernet port, or you can connect it via your office network (local area network or
LAN). These instructions cover both scenarios.
Once installed and correctly configured for use with the Stratus OCT, the NAS device serves
the same functions as a network server (primarily archiving), and the instructions in the
Stratus OCT User Manual for using a network server apply to use of the NAS device.
WARNING: We strongly recommend you use peripheral devices supplied or
approved by Carl Zeiss Meditec, when available, because they will have been
tested to work with the instrument. If you do, follow any specific
configuration instructions that accompany the device. If you use a peripheral
device that conforms with the requirements in this section but is not supplied
by Carl Zeiss Meditec, do not install any unapproved third-party software on
the instrument. Installation of any unapproved software, including drivers,
could degrade the performance of the instrument and/or lead to corrupted
diagnostic or therapeutic information and may void the instrument warranty.
Please refer to the Stratus OCT section of our website (www.meditec.zeiss.com/stratus) for
the current list of approved hardware and software. If you wish to use a third party
peripheral device, seek technical support from the device manufacturer. Repairs
necessitated by the attempt to use a non-approved peripheral device are not covered under
warranty.

NAS Device Safety Warnings

WARNING: Place the NAS device outside the patient environment. Peripheral devices
such as a NAS device must be placed at least 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) away from the
patient, such that the patient cannot touch a peripheral device with any part of his or
her body while being examined. In addition, the instrument operator must not
attempt to touch the patient and a peripheral device at the same time while
examining the patient. Failure to observe this warning could result in electrical shock
to the patient and/or examiner.
WARNING: To directly connect the NAS device to the Stratus OCT, use a network
patch cord only with an unshielded RJ-45 connector. Use of a shielded network patch
cord will ground the NAS device through the Stratus OCT, which could result in
electrical shock to the patient and/or examiner.
