Table 4. Possible causes and soluons for subopmal RF communicaon
Possible Causes Soluons
People or objects interfere with
the communicaon between the
Merlin Antenna and the device.
Make sure that the space between the Merlin Antenna and the device is free
from interfering objects/people.
The Merlin Antenna is too far
away from the device.
Move the Merlin Antenna closer to the device.
Someone is holding the Merlin
Antenna.
Place the Merlin Antenna on a at surface. Do not hold the Merlin Antenna.
Other products in the vicinity are
causing electromagnec
interference (EMI).
Power o or remove equipment that could cause EMI.
The Merlin Antenna cable is
wound around the Merlin
Antenna.
Make sure the Merlin Antenna cable is not wound around the Merlin
Antenna.
CT Scans
Due to their increased power levels and long exposure mes, CT Scans have the remote possibility of
interfering with implanted devices. The potenal interference is transient and occurs only when the X‑ray
signal is present. Connuous exposure may cause a temporary sensor rate increase. In addion, there is a
