    (B)(4), FACILITY IN (B)(6), REPORTED THE PROTURA SYSTEM BEGAN TO UNEXPECTEDLY MOVE AFTER A 6-DEGREE CORRECTION WAS APPLIED AND PATIENT TREATMENT WAS STARTED. THIS CAUSED THE LINEAR ACCELERATOR TO STOP TREATMENT AND THE PATIENT WAS REALIGNED TO THE CORRECT POSITION AND TREATMENT CONTINUED. UPON INVESTIGATION, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE MOVE OF THE PROTURA WAS FROM AN ERROR MESSAGE FROM A PRIOR PATIENT TREATMENT (ERROR MB-ERR-52, WHICH WAS NOT CLEARED), AND WHILE THIS ERROR MESSAGE WAS PRESENT, THE PROTURA SOFTWARE BUFFERED ICOM DATA. THE ICOM DATA CONTAINS THE PEDESTAL LOCATION. SINCE THE ERROR MESSAGE WAS ACTIVE DURING 2 ADDITIONAL PATIENT TREATMENTS, THE PEDESTAL MOVEMENT CONTINUED TO BE BUFFERED WHILE POSITIONING THESE INTERIM PATIENTS, THE PEDESTAL MOTION WAS THEN PROCESSED BY PROTURA SOFTWARE ONCE THE ERROR WAS CLEARED. THE 'CATCH-UP' PROCESSING IS WHAT LEAD TO PROTURA HAVING A DELAYED RECOGNITION TO THE PEDESTAL MOTION, WHICH THEN LEAD TO AN UNEXPECTED ACTIVATION OF THE PROTURA AUTO LOAD/UNLOAD FEATURE. THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED BECAUSE THE SOFTWARE THREAD HANDING THE ICOM MESSAGES, WHICH ARE SPECIFIC TO ELEKTA LINACS, STOPPED LOOPING WHEN THE MB-ERR-52 ERROR MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED
