Regulatory Compliance 
This monitor has been tested and found to comply with IEC/EN 60601-1 and 
IEC/EN 60601-1-2 standards by TÜV Rheinland and is certified by CSA 
International to meet medical standard C22.2 No. 601.1-M1990 (C US Mark). 
Because many medical offices are located in residential areas, the medical 
monitor, in addition to meeting medical requirements, has also been tested and 
found to comply with the limits for Federal Communications Commission
FCC) 
Class B computing devices in a typically configured system. It is the system 
integrator or configurer’s responsibility to test and ensure that the entire system 
complies with applicable electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) laws.  
Planar Systems, Inc. has made great efforts to support the medical device 
industry, in particular medical device manufacturers and medical device system 
integrators. We offer state-of-the-art color displays that are compliant with 
worldwide accepted medical device safety standards, and for the European 
market, CE-marked displays based on compliance with counsel directive 
93/42/EEC—commonly referred to as the Medical Device Directive (MDD). 
The following summarizes our qualification of these displays as it relates to 
compliance with the MDD. 
The European Medical Device Directive requires that the intended use of the 
device be defined. The intended use of these displays is “to display 
alphanumeric, graphic and image data as inputted from any type of medical 
device.” These displays do not provide a measurement function in any way, and 
it is the device and systems manufacturers responsibility to verify its function in 
the integrated device or system. 
The display was classified as required by the MDD according to Annex IX of the 
directive and the medical device (MEDDEV) guidance available at the time of 
classification. Because the display uses electrical energy and has no direct 
patient connections and—by itself—no medical utility, the display is classified 
according to Rule 12 as an MDD Class I device–component or accessory. The 
MDD states that manufacturers of Class I medical devices or accessories shall 
satisfy the requirements in regard to design and manufacturing controls, i.e., the 
applicable assessment route to be used for CE-marking under the MDD, and it 
shall carry the CE-mark according to Annex XII of the directive, with no notified 
body annotation.
