Medical Equipment Safety
• This portable equipment and mobile RF communications equipment can affect medical
electrical (ME) equipment.
• This medical electrical equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to be
installed and put into service per the EMC information provided in the accompanying
documents.
• This ME equipment or ME system should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment and that if adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the ME equipment or ME system
should be observed to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used.
The use of accessories, transducers, and cables other than those specified, except for transducers and
cables sold by the manufacturer of the equipment or system as replacement parts for internal
components, may result in increased emissions or decreased immunity of the ME equipment or ME
system.

RF emissions (CISPR 11)
Group 1
The XSLATE L10 Rugged Tablet PC 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 XSLATE L10 Rugged Tablet PC is suitable for use in all establishments, including
domestic establishments and those directly connected to the public low-voltage power
supply network that supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
