IT Network
118 KOSMOS User Guide
• Connection of equipment to an IT network that includes other systems could
result in previously unidentified risks to patients, operators, or third parties.
Before connecting the equipment to an uncontrolled IT Network, make sure
that all potential risks resulting from such connections were identified and
evaluated, and suitable countermeasures were put in place. IEC 80001-1:2010
provides guidance for addressing these risks.
• When a setting of the IT network to which KOSMOS is connected has been
changed, check that the change does not affect it, and take measures, if
necessary. Changes to the IT network include:
Changing the network configuration (IP address, router, and so on)
Connecting additional items
Disconnecting items
Updating equipment
Upgrading equipment
• Any changes to the IT network could introduce new risks requiring additional
evaluation to be performed.
