The Merlin PCS 3650 programmer Model 3330 The Merlin PCS programmer model 3650 is a portable, dedicated programming system which operates using the Merlin PCS Model 3330 software and is designed to interrogate, program, display data from, and test Abbott Medical implantable devices and leads.

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

The hazard

Due to a programmer software anomaly, during finalizing of the leadless pacemaker system, a specific sequence of programmer actions combined with a loss of telemetry during a small window (<2 seconds) may cause the finalization step to fail. If this occurs, the Programmer displays a loss of telemetry detected window, and there is no pacing.
