Plant investigation: the actual device was returned to the manufacturer for physical investigation.A visual inspection of the returned cycler exterior showed no sign of physical damage.Touch screen test failed - when powering on the cycler the ¿ok, stop, and up/down arrows push buttons¿ illuminated, however the front panel display remained dim.An internal inspection of the cycler found transformer (t1) on the ¿inverter board¿ to have an internal short.The inverter board is located on the rear of the front panel assembly.A known good inverter board was installed and the display became operational.Removed functioning inverter board from the front panel at the completion of the investigation.Valve actuation test passed.System air leak test failed.Pressure leak traced to safety clamp leaking.Replaced pneumatic valve 23.Pressure now stable.Pre-ast 15mins 1000ml simulated treatment was performed without any failures or problems.The device history record did reveal issues or problems related to the reported symptom code(s).Front panel display replaced on 11/22/2023 upon completion of the evaluation, the reported issue was confirmed and the cause was determined to be an internal short on the inverter board.
