    Elekta is responsible for the correction of all products with this defect. 1. Notifications regarding the possibility of this software error and subsequent table location error and potential hazards have been sent out. The notifications include steps to take to reduce the possibility of the occurrence of an injury. 2. A software correction has been released for some versions of the XVI software. All versions of software with this error will be corrected by the end of July 2014. 3. The software correction will enable verification that values have been assigned to table position parameters; failure to pass verification will inhibit the system. The software correction will also detect internal communication errors (incomplete registrations) and inhibit the system when those errors are detected. 4. The update will be mandatory and will be made at no cost to the users. CDRH approves this CAP. You may proceed with implementation of the CAP. For further questions please call (770) 670-2422.
