I. General information
Important notes on the operation of the camera reading system smart!
Please read them carefully prior to the operation of the camera reading system!
Notes on the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
This camera reading system is suited for use in all set-ups including the domicile
that are connected directly to a public power supply for buildings with residential
purposes.
This camera reading system is designed for the use in the indicated electromagnetic
environment. The user should ensure the use in the indicated environment.
This camera reading system operates on HF-Energy exclusively for its own function.
Therefore the emitted interference of high frequency disturbances is very low and
the interference with other appliances operated close-by is improbable. When oper-
ating the camera reading system simultaneously with other systems, however, the
possibility of disturbances of the system or other systems should not be neglected.
For this reason it should be ensured that the system is not placed directly beside or
on top of another system. If the set-up of this system in the proximity of medical,
measuring devices cannot be avoided, the operator of these devices has to be
informed that it is necessary to observe the performance of the system to control
the conventional use of the system in the chosen set-up.
Electronic devices are sensitive towards electric discharge and towards high fre-
quency electromagnetic fields.
Attention: In order to avoid high frequency disturbances the operator should respect
a minimum distance of one meter to portable and mobile HF-telecommunication
devices.
The device may not be used in the patients environment.
Storage of the user manual
The user manual is an essential part of your camera reading system. Please keep
the book in a safe place for future reference.
