Page 14 Section 1.0 - - Compliance Statement

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. The equipment may
cause radio frequency interference to other medical and non-medical devices and radio
communications.
To provide reasonable protection against such interference, this product complies the radiated
emission as per CISPR11 Group1 Class A standard limits.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment is found to cause interference (which may be determined by turning the equipment
on and off), the user (or qualified service personnel) should attempt to correct the problem by one
or more of the following measure(s):
• Reorient or relocate the affected device(s)
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the affected device (see recommended
separation distances)
• Power the equipment from a source different from that of the affected device
• Consult the point of purchase or service representative for further suggestions
The manufacturer is not responsible for any interference caused by using other than recommended
interconnect cables or by unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment. Unauthorized
changes or modifications could void the users' authority to operate the equipment.
All interconnect cables to peripheral devices must be shielded and properly grounded, except when
technologically prohibited. Use of cables not properly shielded and grounded may result in the
equipment causing radio frequency interference.
The AMX 4+ is predominantly intended for use in non-domestic environments, and not directly
connected to the Public Mains Network that supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
The optional Dose Area Product (DAP) and other compatible accessories must be used within the
recommended operating conditions outlined in the operation manuals. In addition to calibration and
warm-up, the DAP and other devices must be reset before and after use to ensure accurate dose
measurements. Sustained exposure to electromagnetic fields (exceeding the test conditions) may
cause false measurements. Failure to follow the recommended use may cause false
measurements.
The magnetic field environment from a MRI device located nearby is a risk of interference.
All of the above are required to achieve the Electromagnetic Compatibility for a typical installation
of the AMX 4+. Further detailed data & requirements are described in the Use Recommendations
and Installation Recommendations sections.
