Possible Combinations with Other Equipment

WARNING: Accessory equipment connected to the analog and digital
interfaces must be certified according to the respective EN and IEC standards
(for example, EN 60950 and IEC 60950 for data processing equipment and
EN 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1 for medical equipment). Furthermore, all
configurations shall comply with the system standards EN 60601-1-1 and
IEC 60601-1-1. Anyone who connects additional equipment to any signal input or
signal output ports configures a medical system and is therefore responsible
that the system complies with the requirements of the system standards
EN 60601-1-1 and IEC 60601-1-1. Siemens can only guarantee the performance
and safety of the devices listed in the System Reference. If in doubt, consult
Siemens service department or your local Siemens representative.
The ultrasound system supports a maximum of three documentation
devices connected to the system. Depending on how your system is
configured, certain documentation devices will maintain power when the
system is powered off. Although this will not cause harm to your
documentation device, Siemens recommends that you power off each
device whenever the system is powered off.
Some on-board peripheral devices must be installed by an authorized
Siemens representative or by a Siemens-approved third party. Devices
installed by other people will be at the user's risk and may void the system
warranty.
