Electromagnetic Compatibility (except M3813B Scale)

Electromagnetic Compatibility (except M3813B Scale)
Note The section applies to all Telemonitoring Set devices except the
M3813B Scale. See the following section for Electromagnetic
Compatibility information for that device.
When using the Philips Telemonitoring System, electromagnetic
compatibility with surrounding devices should be assessed.
A medical device can either generate or receive electromagnetic
interference. Testing for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) has been
performed according to international medical device standards EN
60601-1-2.
These EMC standards describe tests for both emitted and received
interference. Emission tests deal with interference generated by the
device itself, whereas Immunity tests deal with determining
electromagnetic compatibility of the device while used in the presence
of surrounding electronic equipment or other external sources that may
generate interference.
Warning
Radio frequency (RF) interference from nearby transmitting
devices may degrade performance of Philips Telemonitoring Set
devices. Electromagnetic compatibility with surrounding devices
should be assessed prior to using this equipment.
Philips Telemonitoring Set devices should not be used next to or
stacked with other equipment. If you must stack the device, check
that normal operation is possible.
