Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the Callisto™. Install and operate the
Callisto™ according to the EMC information presented in this chapter.
The Callisto™ has been tested for EMC emissions and immunity as a standalone instrument. Do not use the
Callisto™ adjacent to or stacked with other electronic equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary,
the user should verify normal operation in the configuration.
The use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified, with the exception of servicing
parts sold by Interacoustics as replacement parts for internal components, may result in increased
EMISSIONS or decreased IMMUNITY of the device.
Anyone connecting additional equipment is responsible for making sure the system complies with the IEC
60601-1-2 standard.
Guidance and manufacturer's declaration - electromagnetic emissions
The Callisto™ is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The
customer or the user of the Callisto™ should assure that it is used in such an environment.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment
and the Callisto™.
The Callisto™ is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are
controlled. The customer or the user of the Callisto™ can help prevent electromagnetic interferences by
maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters)
and the Callisto™ as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications
equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance
d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P
is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter
manufacturer.
Note 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHZ, the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2 These guidelines may not apply to all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

Electromagnetic environment - guidance
The Callisto™ uses RF energy only for its internal
function.
Therefore, its RF emissions are very low and are not
likely to cause any interference in nearby electronic
equipment.
The Callisto™ is suitable for use in all commercial,
industrial, business, and residential environments.
