Manufacturer Reason for Recall | It was identified that eh Universal Beam Triggering Interface (UBTI) is disabled in the Therapy Safety System (TSS) configuration. In this condition, the TSS does not interrupt the beam delivery if the Healthy Signal from an external gating device is lost. This may lead to a risk of mistreatment when external gating devices are used. |
