Reported risk: This field action is being initiated to correct a recently identified real time controller (RTC)firmware error found in firmware versions 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3. This error may cause the column of the Vantage Panoramic X-Ray unit to continue moving vertically despite the release of the movement control button (i.e. "failure to stop"). If this occurs while a patient is positioned under the column, there is the potential for injury, such as bruising, sprains, or resulting from quick movements to avoid the moving column.
