Following completion of the investigation, no technical problem with the iled 3/5 was found.The issue occurred when the bovie pencil was close to the light head and only in coagulation mode (operational frequency - 940hz), but not while on cut mode (operational frequency - 660hz).Prior to the event, the light system was re-configured to a low ceiling version.The light system was returned to the standard configuration after inspection and the unit is functioning as designed.Emc interferences are well known side-effects with surgical lights.The ifu of the iled 3/5 contains necessary distances between high frequency devices and the light system for different frequencies in which the device is operating.The device is compliant to the relevant emc standard.Based on this information, no further action is required.
