Action

PerkinElmer issued letter on 12/21/16 to customers with AutoDELFIA Systems running version 3.0 Manager Software (revisons 1 and 2). The issue cannot be corrected by the customer therefore it is recommended the AutoDELFIA System be operated in the default English language variant until the AutoDELFIA Manager Software can be updated. The AutoDELFIA System with version 3.0 Manager Software performs as intended when the selected language variant is English. Customers are recommended to implement a software update to be deployed by PerkinElmer to resolve the issue. AutoDELFIA Manager Software version 3.0 revision 1 or 2 will be updated through the correction to revision 3 or the latest released revision
