Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.It has been over 2 years since the subject device was manufactured.Based on the results of the investigation, the issue was likely due to a faulty transducer.A definitive root cause cannot be identified.This information is addressed in the instructions for use (ifu): - regarding check probe illumination, possible causes may be " the probe is loose" or "the probe has failed or has a crack." troubleshooting this problem includes "remove the probe and clean the mating surfaces of the probe and transducer.Reattach probe using the wrench," or " replace probe." (page 30) - for the problem with error indicator illumination, "the transducer may have malfunctioned." troubleshooting this problem includes "reboot generator by turning power off and then back on.Plug in a second transducer to the generator." (page 30) in addition, the ifu advises "it is always recommended that a spare transducer and probe assembly be available." (page 20).Olympus will continue to monitor the field performance of this device.
