Introduction
This chapter provides information on peripherals that can
operate with the Vivid S5/Vivid S6 ultrasound unit, as follows:
• Color Thermal Video Printer
• Black & White Thermal Video Printer
• Integrated Digital video Recorder (DVR)
CAUTION
Use only GE Medical Systems approved internal equipment
when replacing an internal
peripheral.
External
peripheral equipment must be CE marked and in
compliance with related standards (EN 60601-1 or EN 60950).
Conformance to EN 60601-1-1 (2000) must be verified.
All devices meeting IEC60950 must be kept outside of the patient
environment, as defined in IEC60601-1-1 (2000), unless it,
according to IEC60601-1-1 (2000), is equipped with additional
protective earth or extra isolating transformer. Commercial
devices such as laser cameras, printers, VCRs and external
monitors, usually exceed allowable leakage current limits and,
when plugged into separate AC outlets, are in violation of patient
safety standards. Suitable electrical isolation of such external
AC outlets, or providing the device with extra protective earth,
will be required in order to meet UL2601-1 and IEC60601-1
standards for electrical leakage.
WARNING
When using peripheral device, observe all warnings and
cautions given in peripheral operator manuals.
