Reason
Normal operation of the device is to power up the device in the morning, register the first patient, and then perform a fluoroscopy. If, however, the user powers up the device in the morning and makes an error by starting a fluoroscopy while the first patient is still being registered, the device application will abnormally terminate and require service intervention before it can be used again. This event will not occur after the first patient procedure.
