Official product description
LDI Laser firmware lower than V02.13.00 for LDI models: LDl-7, LDI-WF, LDI-NIR, LDl-6 Laser Science fluorescence imaging
Why the product was recalled
The defect relates to firmware version lower than V02.13.00. It is controlling safety interlocks of the LDI; specifically, the potential for the LDI to enter a service mode intended for use in the factory environment only which overrides all interlocks. When this mode - "Interlock Override Mode" - is entered, the system does not cease laser emission when interlocks are opened, but rather allows emission to continue with open interlocks. The potential for this to occur is non-compliant with 21CFR 1040 .10{f )(2) and 21 CFR 1040 .10(f)(3).
