| Issue: | The manufacturer has identified that in rare situations, after increasing the detector lift height to its maximum or minimum, the system may lose its movement capability. A reboot may not reestablish movement control. This failure can be resolved only by qualified service personnel. If this problem occurs, the system will report a failure of movement control and request a service call. It will not be possible to move the stand other than by emergency salvage procedures. Manual unmotorised table movements as well as fluoroscopy and acquisition will be still available. This may result in a situation where it is necessary to cancel the clinical procedure or to continue or begin the procedure on an alternative system. |
