Interference from Electrical Equipment
The Monitor is designed to meet all IEC standards for electromagnetic interference. The Monitor should
withstand common electrostatic and electromagnetic interference. However, using the Monitor in close
distance to strong electromagnetic sources, such as MRIs, X-rays, CT scans, television sets, cell phones,
cordless phones, hand-held and mobile two-way radios, radio transmitters, high-voltage power lines, and
store anti-theft security devices, is not recommended.
➠ Keep the Monitor in its leather case to protect against electrostatic discharges that are common in
cold and dry climates.
➠ Do not place the Monitor in direct contact with X-rays or other medical or industrial imaging
equipment. If a user is scheduled to have an X-ray, CT or MRI scan, take off Sensor, Transmitter and
Monitor. Put in new Sensor after procedure.
➠ The Monitor is designed to withstand interference from airport X-rays or metal detectors and store
anti-theft security devices. Nevertheless, always check the Monitor after it has passed through these
devices to make sure the system is still synchronized and working properly.
➠ The Monitor listens for radio signals from the Transmitter via a 418 MHz (U.S. and Canada) or 433.92
MHz (International) radio receiver with a 400 KHz bandwidth. This receiver can be interfered with
by other electrical/electronic equipment, even if that equipment complies with IEC or FCC
standards. This interference may result in a C76/No Sync alarm.
