Reason

May go to a white screen due to a problem with the SOM2 module. A white screen is a diagnostic screen displayed to the user as part of the safety shutdown procedure of the device. The infusion and the processor stop, sound a 3 minute audible alarm from the backup buzzer and deactivate the couch screen and the automated loading/unloading of cassettes. Delay or interruption of therapy.
