Event Description

Medtronic received information regarding a navigation device.It was reported that when setting up the system, the axiem box booted to a fault light after being connected to the navigation system.There was no patient present when this issue was observed.A medtronic representative (rep) later reported that he was on site and noted that the axiem controller continued to show the fault light after being powered on for a couple of minutes.Upon further review of the emitter details, the rep saw that the details showed "high temperature" errors.The rep was able to confirm that the failure was with the controller and not the emitter as he was able to borrow a secondary axiem controller to use it with the original emitter and it did not have an issue.
