9.4 Moving the System
Removing the Dome
It may be necessary to remove the plastic camera dome when you move the
IVIS
®
Spectrum though a doorway or other low overhang.
■
To remove the dome, wrap a flat blade screw driver with a thin cloth or
paper towel and use the screw driver to gently pry the dome off at the rear
of the console.
Moving the System
If the console is only repositioned a short distance within the range of the power
cord and cables, the power need not be turned off. However, be careful not to
accidentally turn off the power when gripping the system at the right rear.
When possible, two people should move the IVIS
®
Spectrum. The console is tall
and it is difficult to see potential obstacles when pushing the console from
behind. Make sure that the path is clear of items that could jolt the casters and
cause the console to tip. Move the console slowly so that you are always in
control of its motion.
To move the system:
1. Put the front panel toggle switch in the standby position.
2. Turn off the main power switch on the rear panel and disconnect the power
cord from the wall socket and the console.
3. Remove all cables from the rear panel of the console.
CAUTION
!
CAUTION! Any cables that dangle from the console could cause the system
to topple if caught by a caster.
4. Unlock the four casters.
5. Grip the console at a convenient location, but do not use the door handle as
a grip. Be careful when gripping the right rear of the console so that you do
not damage the connectors or fan grills.
6. After the system is positioned at the new location, lock the casters.
7. Reconnect the cables and power cord.
8. If necessary, reinstall the dome.
9. To restart the system:
a. Confirm that the rear panel switch is off, the front panel toggle switch is
down (standby), and all cables are reconnected.
b. Confirm that the power cord is plugged into the console and the wall
socket.
c. Turn on the computer and start the Living Image
®
software.
d. Turn on the rear panel main power switch.
— The status light is blue.
e. Turn on the front panel toggle switch by pulling the toggle out and up.
— The status light is blue and blinking.
f. Initialize the system.
