to, e g:
US
– Display parameters
– Select operating modes
– Indicate messages and error situations
– Change device settings

Combining devices safely
– Safety and essential performance features
are independent of the network The device
is designed appropriately for operation inde-
pendent of a network However, some of the
functions are not available in this case
– Faulty manual configuration can lead to signifi-
cant network problems The expert knowl-
edge of a network administrator is required for
configuration
– The data connection utilizes part of the
bandwidth of the network Interactions with
other medical devices cannot be completely
excluded Apply the IEC 80001-1 standard for
risk assessment
– The device is not suitable to be connected
directly to the public internet
Danger can arise when connecting appliances
to each other or to parts of systems (eg
through leakage currents)
Only connect appliances together when there
i
can be no danger to the operator or to the
patient
Only connect appliances when there can be
i
no environmental impairment through such in-
terconnection
If it is not clear from the appliance data sheets
i
that such connections can be safely made or
if you are in any doubt, always get a suitably
qualified person (eg the manufacturer) to ver-
ify that the setup is safe
