Disabling the aim system potential issues

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
April 1, 2025

Disabling the AIM system on the CaridianBCT Spectra Optia may lead to the following potential issues:

1. Loss of automatic image-based monitoring, requiring operation in Semi-Automatic mode.
2. Increased reliance on manual procedures, which could increase the chance of user error.
3. Inability to perform certain automated calibration or monitoring tasks.
4. Possible impact on procedure accuracy and efficiency.

It is recommended to contact a service representative before starting a new procedure after disabling the AIM system.
