Safety information

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result
in hazardous radiation exposure.
Ensure that you read and understand the XM system
user guide before using any XM system.
The XM system can be used in a variety of environments and applications. To
ensure the safety of the user and other personnel in the vicinity it is therefore
paramount that a comprehensive risk assessment is carried out for the machine
under test before using the XM system.
This should be carried out by qualified users (requiring machine competency,
applicable technical knowledge and a trained risk assessor) with consideration for
the safety of all personnel. The risks identified must be mitigated prior to using the
product. The risk assessment should pay particular attention to machine, manual
handling, mechanical, laser, electrical, power and fibre optic safety.
Based on current research, the wireless devices used in this product would not
seem to pose a significant health problem for the vast majority of pacemaker
wearers. However, people with pacemakers may want to ensure a minimum
distance of 3 cm between the XM system and the pacemaker.
