  • Cause
    If the system drives over insulated flooring or carpeting and then over an un-insulated (earthed) point or electrically grounded section, an electrostatic discharge (esd) spark can cause the system’s digital motion control (dmc) board to malfunction, resulting in unintended movement of the system e.G., an increase in speed or a change of direction. the hazard associated to this defect is the potential of a collision with the system.
  • Action
    Users are provided with temporary workaround solutions to prevent the failure mode from occurring and if it occurs to stop the system immediately by releasing the drive handle entirely or by pressing the emergency button. A Philips Service Engineer will contact the customer as soon as the Field Action Kit is ready to be implemented that will allow to electrically isolate the DMC board from its frame by replacing the existing stainless steel bolts and washers with plastic spacers and nylon screws. This action has been closed-out on 1/06/2016.
