Shutting Down or Restarting the Library
Administrative users can use the
System Shutdown
screen to shut down
or restart the library. Some maintenance activities require that the library
be shut down or restarted.
The
Shutdown
command shuts down the library’s operating system and
firmware. When performing a shutdown, the library finishes all active
commands received from the host application and does not process any
new commands. It shuts down all partitions and lowers the robot to the
“shipping” position on the floor of the library. To finish the shutdown,
press the power switch on the front of the control module.
Always perform a shutdown before completely removing power from
the library. To completely remove power from the library, you must turn
off the power switch on each power supply. Power is completely
removed from the library when the blue LED on each power supply turns
off.
Note:
This operation should not be performed concurrently by
multiple administrative users logged in from different
locations. You can access the appropriate screens, but you
cannot apply changes while another administrative user is
performing the same operation.
