Access to owner service, tools, training, software, tech support and applications support needs to be part of the purchase agreement. That is the only time when the purchaser has the upper hand in any negotiations. If an OEM makes it difficult to service equipment, we need to quit buying their products. Some OEM’s do better than others in this regard. In one recent situation we were changing IP addresses on imaging equipment. With one OEM, the user could make the necessary changes with no service key necessary. With another, only the OEM’s service personnel could do this, via a long drawn out procedure. This not only limits who can do what should be a routine procedure, but also is poor software design if such chages affect how a vendors systems integrate with eachother. DICOM has been around for quite a while now.

Simply awesome! All we would really need to do is place “medical device” in place of auto and there it is….the 2011 Medical Device Service and Maintenance Freedom Act! This is obviously not the first time this subject has crossed my mind over the past 23 years of servicing diagnostic imaging equipment and I doubt it will be the last….however????? At one point and time, many years ago, I heard about a class action suit filed by ISO’s against certain equipment manufacturer’s for gaining access to service literature and / or service passwords. I do not know or remember the outcome to that event or if it was just wishful thinking. Could you shed some light upon that suit…..or if it even did happen? Thanks, great article!
