Technical data
Connections to IT networks
In an IT network, data can be exchanged by means
of wired or wireless technologies. IT networks in-
clude all data interfaces (e.g., RS232, LAN, USB,
printer interface) that are described in standards
and conventions.
During operation, this device can exchange infor-
mation with other devices using IT networks, and
supports the following functions:
– Display of waveforms and parameters
– Signaling of alarms
– Transfer of device settings and patient data
– Service mode, access to logbooks
Connecting this device to a network that incorpo-
rates other devices, or making subsequent
changes to that network, may result in new risks for
patients, users, and third parties. Before the device
is connected to the network or the network is
changed, these risks must be identified, analyzed,
and evaluated and appropriate measures taken.
Examples of subsequent changes to the network:
– Changing the network configuration
– Removing devices from the network
– Adding other devices to the network
– Performing upgrades or updates to devices that
are connected to the network
