Safety precautions
!
To avoid serious or fatal injury, read and
comply with the following safety precautions.
Insufficient knowledge and skills As an operator, ensure that you know the relevant safety
precaution guidelines and standards and the information
and procedures contained in these instructions.
r Follow standard laboratory practices, especially when
you work with biohazardous material.
Infectious samples In a laboratory, the surface of the mobile device may
come into contact with sample material of human origin.
Therefore, after use in a laboratory, the mobile device
must be treated as potentially biohazardous.
r For disinfection procedures, refer to the instructions
for using mobile devices in your laboratory in
combination with the manufacturer’s guidelines.
Electromagnetic interference The cobas® 8000 modular analyzer series is designed
and tested to CISPR 11, Class A standard. Mobile devices
that emit electromagnetic waves may cause the system to
malfunction.
r Do not operate the mobile device in close proximity to
cobas® 8000 modular analyzer series.
Leak of sensitive information In order to avoid unauthorized access to data, observe the
following instructions:
r Create only encrypted (password-protected) backups
from your mobile device.
Open TCP ports The use of this app requires that the TCP ports 35851-
35853 of the Roche firewall (FortiGate-40C) are open
towards the Roche laboratory network. There is no further
risk associated with this setting. However, we recommend
that you take the following step before you open the
ports:
r Review the laboratory Wi-Fi access and security
settings to keep the laboratory network and the Roche
corporate network secure and protected from external
traffic.
