Local Area Network: protection from unauthorized access
■ If this product is connected to a local area network, this network must be protected
against unauthorized access. In particular, it must not be linked directly to any other net-
work or the Internet. Customers are responsible for the security of their local area net-
work, especially in protecting it against malicious software and attacks. This protection
might include measures, such as a firewall, to separate the device from uncontrolled net-
works as well as measures that ensure that the connected network is free of malicious
code.
■ If you use a customized data management system solution, ensure that sensitive data
transmitted via the POCT1-A interface is protected by appropriate security measures.
■ Ensure that the instrument is protected against unauthorized physical access and theft.
■ Do not use shared user or operator accounts on meter, DMS and network.
■ Whether working in a wired or wireless environment, use a strong password for user or
operator accounts on the meter, DMS, and network. Observe your own facility guidelines
on password management where available, or apply the rules for strong passwords, see
“Characteristics of strong passwords” below.
Do not use the meter near strong electromagnetic fields, which could
interfere with the proper operation of the meter.
Electrostatic discharges may cause malfunction of the meter.
