to take mitigation measures, such as relocating or re-orienting

Electrical medical equipment requires special precautions
regarding EMC and must be installed and implemented
according to the EMC information provided in this manual.
AII types of electronic equipment may characteristically cause
electromagnetic interference with other equipment, transmitted
either through air or connecting cables. The term
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) indicates the capability of
the equipment to curb electromagnetic influence from other
equipment, while at the same time not affecting other equipment
with similar electromagnetic radiation.
Radiated or conducted electromagnetic signals can cause
distortion, degradation, or artifacts in the ultrasound image
which may impair the ultrasound system’s essential
performance (see page 2-25).
There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment is found to cause or
respond to interference, attempt to correct the problem by one
or more of the following measures:
• Re-orient or re-locate the affected device.
• Increase the separation between the system and the
affected device.
• Power the equipment from a source other than that of the
affected device.
• Consult your service representative for further suggestions.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any interference or
response caused by the use of interconnecting cables other
than those recommended or by unauthorized changes or
modifications to this system. Unauthorized changes or
modifications could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
To comply with the regulations on electromagnetic interference,
all interconnecting cables to peripheral devices must be
shielded and properly grounded. Use of cables not properly
shielded and grounded may result in the equipment causing or
responding to radio frequency interference, in violation of the
European Union Medical Device Directive and FCC regulations.
