Action | An Important: Electronic Product Radiation Warning notification was sent to all consignees. The letters described the reason for the recall and identified the affected product. The system software will be modified to allow the shift of the decimal to one position to the right allowing for a display of 99999.9 mGy. This will allow for the retention of the resolution until such time as the system exceeds the 9999.99 mGy range. A Toshiba Service person will contact customers when the software is available. Installed systems with the current version of software ( version 4.23) will begin to receive the corrected software April 2011. Previous versions of the software will begin to receive corrected software June 2011. The software will be provided free of charge.
