Siemens headquarters support center (hsc) reviewed the instrument files provided by the customer.

A siemens field service engineer (fse) visited the customer site the day after the falsely low discordant was observed ((b)(6) 2016) and evaluated the instrument based on suggestions made by hsc. The issue with the system as per the fse was a earthing problem. There have been no other discordant results reported by the customer since the fse evaluated the instrument. The cause of the falsely low results was due to an earthing problem of the instrument. The system is performing according to specifications. No further evaluation of the device is required.
