Manufacturer Narrative

In speaking with olympus technical assistance center (tac), the customer reported that there were color bars showing on the device display monitor.The biomedical engineer followed troubleshooting directions and held down the "stop," "capture," and "print," buttons on the device at the same time in order to reset the printer to red green blue (rgb) input.The engineer then corrected the cabling as follows: evis exera video system center (cv-180) printer out to the oep-4 rgb (color video printer) input, and the oep-4 rs232c cable goes from the oep-4 to the cv-180 printer remote.A scope was then plugged into the cv-180 and the reported issue was resolved.The affected device is not expected to be returned for evaluation.The investigation is ongoing, and a supplemental report will be submitted upon completion of the investigation or if any additional information is provided by the user facility.

Manufacturer Narrative

This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's investigation.The dhr was unable to be reviewed for this device since the serial number was not provided.However, olympus only releases products to market that meet all manufacturing specifications and final product release criteria.The case is not due to design.Based on the results of the legal manufacturer's investigation, and the inability to evaluate the subject device and reproduce the event, a definitive root cause of the color bar being displayed could not be identified.However, it¿s likely the cause is related to the scope not being connected.Olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
