Hi The usual “best guess” is that the tube has reached end of life. The answer is to send it back to Beverly MA. They will replace the tube and re-adjust the device to work with that tube. The process involves getting a “shipping kit” from them. The device goes back in that box and does so as hazmat via FedEx. Entering a package like that into the FedEx system involves a person with special training doing the entry. (At least that was the case when I last sent one back). Needless to say it’s a hassle.
Cost typically has been 40 to 50% of the price of a new device. It was ~40K a decade ago. If the “new price” is now $95K, it may well be up to around $50K by now. Needless to say, that’s a lot ….
