• WARNING: Eartips can be swallowed and cause a choking hazard. Ensure all parts are properly attached and stored.
• WARNING: MR-unsafe! Do not expose the device to a magnetic resonance (MR) environment. The device may present a risk of projectile injury
due to the presence of ferromagnetic materials that can be attracted by the MR magnet core. Thermal injury and burns may occur due to the
metal components of the device that can heat during MR scanning. The device may generate artifacts in the MR image. The device may not
function properly due to the strong magnetic and radio frequency fields generated by the MR scanner.
• WARNING: The CORE 500™ is not intended to be used in an oxygen-rich environment.
• WARNING: Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If
such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
• WARNING: DO NOT use unapproved accessories. Use of non-Eko approved accessories or transducers and cables could result in
electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of this device and result in improper operation.

2.4 Network Security
When connecting your smart device, use a network that supports Wi-Fi 802.11n. It is recommended to secure this network using WPA (Wi-Fi
Protected Access) or WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access II) as your security protocol. For information on setting up your wireless network security, refer to
your network equipment’s documentation.
All data transmitted from the Eko App is encrypted in transit using TLS 1.2 or greater, and all data is encrypted at rest using AES 256.
In addition to security features embedded in the system, it’s highly recommended that users of the Eko App and Eko Dashboard use networking
security features to protect patient data created and stored using this software. Common examples include strong passwords, biometric
authorization, two-factor authentication, and VPN encryption when available.
CORE 500™ supports the use of Bluetooth as the primary communication protocol to the mobile device during operation. Bluetooth is a short-
range wireless technology standard using UHF radio waves in the ISM bands, from 2.402 to 2.48 GHz.
Firmware updates to the CORE 500™ will be made available as over-the-air (OTA) updates through your Eko App on mobile devices. Eko provides
regular updates for your Eko App, available through the mobile device app store.
