In prototyping our device, we are wanting to "future-proof" it by adding a wireless component, even though, for this initial version, the device will be interfaced with manually (though a panel on the device itself).
So my question is, does this pose any potential issues in terms of IEC 60601-1-2 testing?
In otherwords, if an embedded component is presently not doing anything, but has the potential to in the future (through a future firmware upgrade), is it necessary to have it's function tested? Or can it be ignored until such time that the necessary firmware to control it is released?
As always, any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
MM.
