App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
When beginning a procedure to start the gantry and CT Host, a Close Estop message may appear to the operator, but disappears before action can be taken. If this occurs it results in an inability to close E-Stop and the system is not operational for clinical use. This problem occurs randomly.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.
