NOTE: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures,
objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio,
AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to
fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the WaveWriter
Alpha or WaveWriter Alpha Prime System is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the WaveWriter Alpha or WaveWriter Alpha
Prime System should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such
as re-orienting or relocating the WaveWriter Alpha or WaveWriter Alpha Prime System.
The external electrical components of the WaveWriter Alpha and WaveWriter Alpha Prime Systems have been tested for immunity to interference
from RFID readers per the following specifications.

Electromagnetic environment – guidance
Floors should be wood, concrete or ceramic tile. If
floors are covered with synthetic material, the relative
humidity should be at least 30 %.
Note: Applies to the external devices.
Power frequency magnetic fields should be at
levels characteristic of a typical location in a typical
commercial or hospital environment . Magnetic fields
from common appliances are not expected to affect
the device.
Electromagnetic Environment - guidance
Professional healthcare facility environment and home healthcare
environment.
