Siemens Artis zeego X-Ray System Recall: Stand Movement Failure After BIOS Battery
Siemens recalls Artis zeego and Artis Q.zeego X-ray systems with model numbers 10280959 and 10848283 due to potential stand movement failure after BIOS battery discharge during startup.
It may occur that after system startup no stand movement is possible any longer in the event of a discharged BIOS battery of the robotic stand control PC. If this problem occurs during startup, all stand movements are blocked and can only be reactivated by a field service engineer.
