Power Shut Down
When switching the unit OFF, the system performs an automatic shutdown sequence.
NOTE:
After turning OFF the system, wait at least 10 seconds before turning it on again. The system may not
be able to boot-up if power is recycled too quickly.
The system can be switched OFF in one of three ways, as follows:
•
Holding down the
On/Off
button for 3-5 seconds will evoke the display of the System Exit dialog
box (see
). From this, you can either select
Full Shutdown
(click the
Shutdown
button)
or choose to place the system in
Standby Mode
(click the
Standby
button). Both these procedures
are described in detail below.
•
Holding down the
On/Off
button for more than 10 secs will cause the system to perform
Emergency
Shutdown.
This is not recommended under normal circumstances.
•
Closing the lid will place the system in
Standby Mode
.
Note:
The system will remain in
Standby Mode
for as long as battery power will allow.
The System - Exit dialog box (
), used when switching OFF the unit, gives you the choices
described below.
•
Standby
Use this button to select the Standby mode, allowing a shorter reboot time. Most of the system is
powered down, but a certain portion of the unit remains energized. The standby mode allows a
shorter re-boot time when the system is used on a daily basis or moved from one place to another.
•
Logoff
Use this button to log off the current user.
The system remains ON and ready for a new user to log on.
(If the Logoff button is dimmed, it indicates that no user is logged on to the unit at the moment.)
•
Shutdown
Use this button to Shut Down the system. The entire system is shut down. It is recommended to
perform a full shutdown at least once a week.
•
Cancel
Use this button to exit from the System - Exit dialog box and return to the previous operation.
