5.2 POWERING DOWN
PIM-P can be powered down in different ways listed below. It is not recommended to
power down simply by “Pulling the plug” or switching off the Main Switch on the front
panel.
Exiting
The proper way is to Exit the UI is by pressing
the red exit button. This will generate an exit pop
up. Respond to the pop-up menu’s choice Yes / NO
to power the system down or not. This method
ensures the RF is switched off properly, all UI and
computer processes are terminated in an orderly
fashion, and data files are closed.
Caution
Forced Termination
Holding the Start Button on the front panel for 3 seconds generates a
soft reset. RF is switched off, and all vital files will be closed and stored.
In this mode, the urgency to power off the unit trumps handling and
closing all files. Some information, e.g. log data may be lost.
Caution
Main Switch
When not following the proper shutdown sequence and using the
Main switch on the front to terminate power it is likely that files get
corrupted, and the test system may be harmed.
Note: Cooling fans may become operational after the main switch is
placed in the off position until discharge of all internal capacitors is
complete; typically within 5 seconds
Caution
“Pulling the Plug”
This “method” should be avoided under all circumstances. It can
damage the hardware and corrupt files. This “method” is especially
critical if the RF port is still connected to a grounded system under test.
Residual discharges may flow via RF Ground / Shield. With the main
connector no longer plugged in, ground connection is also disrupted.
