Action
Siemens had informed all affected customers about this issue via Customer Safety Advisory Notice XP023/13/S (dated June 3, 2013) reported under C&R # 2240869-05/16/13-0013-C. A corresponding software update to fix the issue was originally planned to be rolled out by May 2014. The originally scheduled roll out date could not be met and to ensure that this new software version works accurately Siemens incorporated a comprehensive monitoring phase. Siemens has now scheduled the roll out for the software version VB10J to be completed by end of October 2014. A letter, dated July 7, 2014, with important safety information was sent to end users to notify them that the new software version VB10J will be introduced to solve the potential malfunction of the generator.
