3-67 .
• While moving the unit, follow all safety precautions, as described in 3-10-3 "Safety Precautions for
Moving the Vivid 3N Unit" on page 3-68 .

3-10-1 Disconnecting the Unit when Storing
CAUTION: Never disconnect the power (switch OFF the system circuit breaker or unplug the
power plug) before the system is completely shut down. Power disconnection before full system
shutdown may cause system boot-up failure. This may require system recovery, by booting-up
the system using the software CD.
Before storing the unit or moving it to another site, disconnect the unit as follows:
1) Press the
On/Off
button on the control panel for 5 seconds. A menu is displayed.
2) Select Full Shutdown from the displayed menu.
3) Turn the circuit breaker to OFF.
4) Unplug the power cord from the mains power outlet.
5) Loop the cord around the hook on the unit’s rear panel.
3-10-2 Preparing the Unit for Transport
Perform the following steps as applicable:
1) Turn the system OFF, including the circuit breaker at the rear of the unit, and remove the plug from
the wall.
2) Disconnect all cables linking the unit to any off-board peripheral devices, such as a computer
network, printers, etc. Note the marks on each cable, in order to reconnect them later.
3) Secure the unit’s power cable.
4) Place all probes in the probe holders. Wrap or place the probe cables on the cable hooks at the
front of the unit to ensure that they do not protrude from the unit or interfere with the wheels. Store
all other probes in their original cases, soft cloth or foam to prevent damage. The park-port may
also be used for a probe connection although it is not active.
5) Ensure that no loose items are left on the unit.
6) Unlock the brakes by pressing down on the pedal to return it to the middle position.
