Assembly and preparation
4.3.6
Establishing potential equalization
Differences in electrical potential between devices can be reduced by potential
equalization.
Potential equalization does not replace the protective ground connection.
During operation, the potential equalization connector must be readily accessible
and the potential equalization cable must be removable without tools.
4.3.6.1
Connecting the potential equalization cable
– Connect the potential equalization cable to the potential equalization pin on the
device (see "Connectors", page 30).
– Connect the potential equalization cable to a potential equalization connector of
the health-care facility (e.g., wall, ceiling supply unit, operating table).
4.3.7
Connecting devices to the data interfaces
This device is equipped with data interfaces such as LAN and RS232. These
interfaces can be used to set up an IT network in accordance with IEC 60601-1.
4.3.7.1
Establishing a data connection
CAUTION
Risk of a cybersecurity attack
The following dangerous situation can arise if the network does not meet the
security requirements.
An overload of the device due to high network load (e.g., caused by denial-of-
service attacks) may lead to a shut-down of the device's network port. The network
port will not be available again until the device is restarted. This prevents
unauthorized access to the system, protecting the primary device functions.
► Restart the device and inform service personnel.
WARNING
Risk of a cybersecurity attack
The RS-232 port is used to establish a point-to-point connection. Unauthorized
access to the device can impair the device function.
► Unauthorized persons must not have access to the data sent via the RS-232
port.
► All device interfaces must be protected against malware and computer viruses.
► If commercially available RS-232-to-Ethernet converters are used, the operating
organization is responsible for the use and correctness of the data.
● Connect the device to a network or a computer.
An illustration of the ports can be found on page 30.
To use the flow correction (see page 149), connect an anesthetic gas monitor to the
COM 2 port.
Only use the cables from the list of accessories.
For further information on configuring the particular interface, see page 220.
