Additional Manufacturer Narrative

On 31-oct-2024 a field service technician was on-site to investigate the problem.It was revealed that the error message "device not detected" appears because the uss cable was bent due to the fall of the module.As a resolution, the cable was replaced and the system is functional.A previous capa investigation identified the following root cause of this event: misuse of the uss as a ¿handle¿ to change the support arm position instead of using the proper handle of the support arm.This misuse loosens the mechanical connection between the uss and the fpv so it becomes insufficient to hold the uss in place.As a result of the capa, the instructions for use were updated accordingly to ensure that future incidents are avoided.Nevertheless, as new incidents of this type were reported by customers a new capa was raised to prevent further occurrences.This incident is classified with a risk level of medium and is an acceptable patient risk.
