A philips remote service engineer (rse) verified that there was an inoperative (inop) alarm stating some ecg alarms were off.The rse instructed he customer biomedical engineer (biomed) to enter the ecg setup menu by touching heart rate (hr>arrhythmia>turn arrhythmia on), and recommended attempting to activate a red level alarm on a simulator while assigned to sector on the philips information center ix (pic ix).The biomed put a hold on the recommended steps suggested by the rse for the following day and would call back to confirm.They stated the mx40 was back in service and not having any issues now.Further details were requested, but not able to be provided, as the repair was from another biomed on site and not the case owner.Based on the information available and the testing conducted, the cause of the reported problem was unknown.The reported problem was not confirmed.Philips was unable to confirm the final disposition of the device because the customer took responsibility to correct/repair the device.The investigation concludes that no further action is required at this time.If additional information is received the complaint file will be reopened.
