System Shut Down
To shut down a standalone node, or your particular node on a multi-node
system, select
Shutdown System in the System menu (see Shutdown)
and wait for the VisionMaster FT application and the Windows operating
system to power down. When the software has fully powered down then
switch the On/Off switch to off.
CAUTION:
Do NOT switch the On/Off switch to Off before the VisionMaster
software has fully powered down.
To shut down all the nodes on the system select Shutdown All Systems .
For a multi-node system a prompt appears requesting a confirmation of the
shutdown to be entered, see Shutdown for details.
CAUTION:
In a multi-node system, each node may be configured to provide a
connection to a sensor device or other peripheral equipment that
is also providing data to other nodes on the system. Therefore it
is important to change to alternate data sources before shutting
down a node that is providing navigational data to the system. If
an active sensor is lost, an aler is generated, and the colour of
data displayed for that sensor will change to yellowish-orange on
the nodes that are still running.
