Switching the CDC five OFF
To shut the surface down, ‘short-press’ the PWR [25] button again, and a dialogue box will be displayed
asking if the console should be shut-down (YES), or restart (WARM START) while continuing to
process audio or CANCEL. Selecting YES initiates a power-down sequence, ensuring that the
computer is shut down correctly. When the surface shuts down, a snapshot is taken of the current
console status: this includes all input and output channel settings.
23: Power OFF screen
Alternatively, the surface can be powered down via the MENU screen using the SHUTDOWN button in
the SETTINGS menu, which opens the same dialogue box.
The internal computer may be ‘forced’ to reboot by pressing the PWR [25] button for approx. 1 – 3 secs.
This function may be useful in the unlikely event of a major computer crash; audio continues during the
reboot.
If the PWR button is held pressed for at least 5 secs., a complete shutdown of all console functions is
forced.
