• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
cobas
®
pulse complies with both the electromagnetic
immunity requirements and radio interference immunity
requirements at the frequency and test levels according
to ISO 15197.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
The cobas
®
pulse system complies with the electrostatic
discharge (ESD) immunity requirements as specified in
IEC 61326-2-6. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is an
electrical charge at rest, most commonly known as static
electricity. If the meter experiences ESD during a blood
glucose test, an error message is displayed and no blood
glucose result is displayed by the meter or stored in the
meter’s memory. The blood glucose test will need to be
repeated.
To avoid ESD, do not use the meter in a very dry
environment, particularly one in which synthetic
materials (e.g., carpets) are present that might cause
damaging static discharges.
Wireless connectivity
Wireless connectivity allows the instrument to send data
(test results, patient IDs, user IDs, etc.) to the data
management system. The Wi-Fi should be configured by
the system administrator. Observe the guidelines of your
facility for using wireless local area network connections.

Support Center for technical assistance.
Radio frequency radiation exposure
information
The industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) radio
frequencies may contain emissions from microwave
ovens, heaters, and other non-communication devices.
While these types of devices usually pose no threat of
interference as they are low-powered devices, the
possibility exists that some industrial high-power systems
may wipe out any attempted communication use of a
WLAN enabled device. Therefore, perform a site survey
and interference analysis with a spectrum analyzer to
view the entire spectrum, looking for signals that might
not only be within the frequency range of the intended
WLAN but also could be near or at the same frequency
and cause interference.
