Switching off the CryptoServer LAN
You can switch off the CryptoServer LAN by using the menu control.
Before you switch off the CryptoServer LAN, please close all the applications that access it.
The initial status message in the display panel, as shown for example in Figure 10, is the
reference point for the next steps.
If you are currently working in a particular menu level or an input screen, quit this by pressing
the EXIT button. You may need to do this several times.
Then use the menu control to switch off the CryptoServer LAN as follows:
1.
Click OK.
2.
Select the CSLAN Administration menu item.
3.
Click OK to confirm the selection.
4.
Use the
button to go to the Shutdown menu item.
5.
Click OK to confirm the selection.
6.
Respond [ ]Yes to the confirmation prompt Confirm Shutdown by pressing the
button
to insert the asterisk in the brackets select [
]Yes.
7.
Click OK.
This shuts down the device.
When the device is switched off, the message in the display panel disappears. If you want to
switch off CryptoServer LAN completely, switch off the power supply switches a5 and a6 on
the rear side of the device.
The CryptoServer LAN should be kept running constantly to prevent the batteries from being
used.
If a system is inactive for a long period, the batteries will be used up. After a while this can
result in the CryptoServer no longer being supplied with power, and all the data will be
deleted. The resulting maintenance tasks are not covered by Utimaco's liability.
On the other hand, a brief interruption to the power supply (if the device is being moved
around etc.) does not place a serious demand on the batteries and consequently there is no
danger of data and settings etc. being deleted.
