Safety Information
This section describes the safety precautions that should be followed when installing and
operating the EDS-MD.
Warning:
This equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic
mixture including air, oxygen or nitrous oxide. To avoid the risk of electric
shock, this equipment must only be connected to a supply mains with
protective earth.
The EDS-MD is not to be used in life support or as a life sustaining product.
No modification of this equipment is allowed.
Cover
Warning: Do not remove the cover of the EDS-MD device server. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside. Opening or removing the cover may
expose you to dangerous voltage that could cause fire or electric shock.
Do not operate the EDS-MD if the housing is broken.
1: Using This Guide
Note: Refer all servicing to Lantronix.
Power Plug
When disconnecting the power cord from the socket, pull on the plug, not the cord.
Always connect the power cord to a properly wired and grounded power source. Do not use
adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from the cord.
Only use a power cord with a voltage and current rating greater than the voltage and current
rating marked on the unit.
The appliance inlet serves as the main supply disconnect. Do not position the EDS-MD in
such a way that it is difficult to the disconnect EDS-MD.
Note:
Install the unit near an AC outlet that is easily accessible.
Always connect any equipment used with the product to properly wired and grounded power
sources.
To help protect the product from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical
power, use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
Do not connect or disconnect this product during an electrical storm.
Input Supply
Check nameplate ratings to assure there is no overloading of supply circuits that could affect
over current protection and supply wiring.
EDS-MD® Medical Device Server User Guide 14
1: Using This Guide
Grounding
Maintain reliable grounding of this product.
Pay particular attention to supply connections when connecting to power strips, rather than
directly to the branch circuit.
Fuses
There are fuses on the internal power supply serviceable only by Lantronix.
Battery
A Lithium battery cell inside the unit maintains the unit's date and time when the device is powered
off. Do not attempt to replace it. The battery is serviceable only by Lantronix.
Caution: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED.
REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE
RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. DISPOSE OF USED
BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS.
Attention
IL Y A DANGER D'EXPLOSION S'IL Y A REMPLACEMENT INCORRECT
DE LA BATTERIE, REMPLACER UNIQUEMENT AVEC UNE BATTERIE
DU MÊME TYPE OU D'UN TYPE ÉQUIVALENT RECOMMANDÉ PAR LE
CONSTRUCTEUR. METTRE AU REBUT LES BATTERIES USAGÉES
CONFORMÉMENT AUX INSTRUCTIONS DU FABRICANT.
Wall Mounting
If wall-mounted units are installed, the following items must be considered:
Do not install the unit in such a way that a hazardous stability condition results because of
uneven loading. A drop or fall could cause injury.
Make sure to install the EDS-MD unit in an environment with an ambient temperature less
than the maximum operating temperature of the EDS-MD device. Therefore, consideration
should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Maintain reliable earthing of wall-mounted equipment. Give particular attention to supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips)
because of the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used
when addressing this concern.
Note: Before operating the EDS-MD device, make sure the device mounting is secured.
Port Connections
Only connect the network port to an Ethernet network that supports 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX/
1000 Base-T.
Only connect device ports to equipment with serial ports that support EIA-232 (formerly RS-
232C). Unless specified otherwise, only connect USB ports to USB thumb drives.
EDS-MD® Medical Device Server User Guide 15
1: Using This Guide
Warning: To avoid overloading and overheating, do not use a USB port as a
charger port or a power port for other devices such as a cellular phone,
PDA device, disk drive, etc.
WARNINGS OF NETWORK CONNECTIONS
The integration of the EDS-MD medical device server into an IT network may constitute a Medical
Electrical (ME) System. It is recommended that the system leakage current be measured to verify
that the basic requirement for the safety of the ME System, after installation or subsequent
modification of the system, does not result in an unacceptable risk.
The integration of the EDS-MD into a IT network may result in unforeseen risks associated with
the interconnection of the EDS-MD Programmable Electronic Subsystem (PESS)/Programmable
Electrical Medical Systems (PEMS) to IT Networks. Connection of equipment containing PEMS to
an IT NETWORK/DATA COUPLING that includes other equipment could result in previously
unidentified risks to patients, operators or third parties. The entity accountable for the use and
maintenance of an ME EQUIPMENT or an ME SYSTEM should identify, analyze, evaluate and
control these RISKS. Subsequent changes to the IT NETWORK/DATA COUPLING could
introduce new RISKS and require additional analysis. Changes to the IT NETWORK/DATA
COUPLING include:
Changes in NETWORK/DATA COUPLING configuration
Connection of additional items to the IT NETWORK/DATA COUPLING
Disconnecting items from the IT NETWORK/DATA COUPLING
Update of equipment connected to the IT NETWORK/DATA COUPLING
Upgrade of equipment connected to the IT NETWORK/DATA COUPLING

Configuration Methods
After installation, the EDS-MD unit requires configuration. For the unit to operate correctly on a
network, it must have a unique IP address on the network. There are four basic methods for
logging into the EDS-MD 4/8/16 device server and assigning IP addresses and other configurable
settings:
2: Introduction
Web Manager: View and configure all settings easily through a web browser using the
Lantronix Web Manager. (See Configuration Using Web Manager on page 33.)
DeviceInstaller: Configure the IP address and related settings and view current settings on
the EDS-MD 4/8/16 device server using a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on a PC attached to
a network. You will need the latest version of the Lantronix® DeviceInstaller™ utility. (See
Accessing the PremierWave XC HSPA+ Device Using DeviceInstaller on page 30.)
Command Mode: There are a few methods for accessing Command Mode (CLI): making a
Telnet connection, or connecting a PC or other host running a terminal emulation program to
the unit’s port. (See the EDS-MD Medical Device Server Command Reference for instructions
and available commands.)
XML: The EDS-MD 4/8/16 device server supports XML-based configuration and setup
records that make device configuration transparent to users and administrators. XML is easily
editable with a standard text or XML editor. (See the EDS-MD Medical Device Server
Command Reference for instructions and commands).
Addresses and Port Numbers
Hardware Address
The hardware address is also referred to as the Ethernet address, physical address, or MAC
address. The first three bytes of the Ethernet address are fixed and identify the unit as a Lantronix
product. The fourth, fifth, and sixth bytes are unique numbers assigned to each unit. Sample
hardware address:
00-20-4A-14-1B-18
00:20:4A:14:1B:18
EDS-MD® Medical Device Server User Guide 19
2: Introduction
IP Address
Every device connected to an IP network must have a unique IP address. This address references
the specific unit.
Port Numbers
Every TCP connection and every UDP datagram is defined by a destination and source IP
address, and a destination and source port number. For example, a Telnet server commonly uses
TCP port number 23.
The following is a list of the default server port numbers running on the EDS-MD 4/8/16 device
server:
TCP Port 23: Telnet Server (Command Mode configuration)
TCP Port 80: HTTP (Web Manager Configuration)
TCP Port 21: FTP
UDP Port 30718: LDP (Lantronix Discovery Protocol) port
TCP/UDP Port 10001: Tunnel 1 (see note below)
Note: Additional TCP/UDP ports and tunnels will be available, depending on the product
type. The default numbering of each additional TCP/UDP port and corresponding tunnel
will increase sequentially (i.e., TCP/UDP Port 1000X: Tunnel X).
