The Vamos monitor complies with the noise immunity requirements
of product-specific standards and of EN 60601-1-2 (IEC 601-1-2).
However, depending on the type of mobile telephone and the
situation where it is used, field strengths exceeding the values
specified in these standards may be generated and can therefore
lead to interference.
