Intuitive surgical, inc.(isi) received the illuminator involved with this complaint and completed the device evaluation.Failure analysis (fa) investigation could not reproduce the customer-reported complaint.However, the error/fault was confirmed via error logs/system logs.The illuminator was returned with a lamp module, and both fuses were good.When reviewing the remote error log, there are several errors: 48245 means the illuminator lamp failed to ignite after several automatic attempts.After this error, ignite attempts stop and the lamp remains off until the user tries to switch the lamp on again.An ignition failures indicate that the lamp module must be replaced or the ignition circuitry in the illuminator has failed.Error 48244 means illuminator lamp failed to ignite indicate that the lamp module is nearing end of life or the ignition circuitry in the illuminator is failing.An error 48247 means the illuminator is unable to communicate with its lamp module or finds an invalid lamp module (due to invalid/corrupted id or encryption data), lamp hours may be accumulated incorrectly.Replacement of the lamp module is recommended.Fa installed the illuminator into a test system with the test fixture lamp module, and the system started up without error, the illuminator turn on with blue led, and all the vision tests passed.Fa verified all video ports, which balance and 3d tests passed.The image was good with and without turning on the light.Fa booted up system in normal mode and let it idle for 10 minutes.Fa power cycled system 30 times, no issues occurred after extensive use.
