Upon receipt, the programmer underwent functional testing.The programmer was powered on to check for error reports or boot-up issues.No anomalies were noted.Next, a test device was interrogated several times, confirming there were no communication problems between the device and programmer.Additionally, the touch screen was checked for functionality and calibration, with no issues noted.Laboratory testing was unable to reproduce the reported clinical observations and detailed analysis did not reveal any abnormalities other than a scratched external housing, which was replaced.The programmer performed normally throughout all tests.
