poweroff
Use the
poweroff
command to shut the system off. This command allows the
system to properly close any open files and gracefully exit and shut down. If you
turn off the system without using the
poweroff
command (including power
failure), the system will require some extra self-checks and start-up time the next
time it boots up.

The system is going down for system halt NOW !!
After you enter the
poweroff
command, the system may take up to two minutes
to close all files and prepare to be shut off.
Turn off the power supply switch (or power off the circuit) only after the front
panel display says "OK to power off". The SCS must be power-cycled to restart.

running the setup program.
