Shutdown and Restart
Shutdown
The console should be shut down by powering off the control surface (mains connections at rear) and Nova73
(mains connections at front).
Note that the control system is located on the Router Module MKII within the Nova. Therefore, it is here where
your user data is stored.
Following switch-off, power is provided to the control system for a further 18 seconds. During this time, all current
settings are saved to flash memory; this is known as the warm start data. You will hear several tones signalling
that the shut down operation has been successfully completed. The system is shut down when the blue LED of
the trackball is off.
you can switch off the power to other system components (e.g. DALLIS units) at any time.
Starting the System (Warm Start)
To start the system, turn on the power to the control surface (mains connections at rear) and Nova (mains
connections at front). The components can be powered in any order, but note that the control system resides
within the Nova73. Therefore, the system boots when you turn on power to the Nova73.
you can switch on the power to other system components (e.g. DALLIS units) at any time.
The control system boots in a few seconds; during this time the Central GUI reports back on the boot-up
progress.
By default, the warm start data is loaded at the end of boot-up. This means that the system comes back exactly
as it was when you last shut down, ensuring fast recovery of all previous settings following a loss of power.
Depending on who was last using the console, you can be sat in front of a fully configured control surface with
DSP settings or a series of blank fader strips! In either case, the fastest way to reset the console is to load a
production.
The control surface and Nova can be booted before DALLIS units. This enables you to prepare settings,
including signal routing, before remote DALLIS stageboxes are connected or have received power.
Starting the System (Cold Start)
Alternatively, the system can be set to cold start, following the next reboot, using the Prepare Coldstart option in
the
System Settings display. Or, the Prepare Coldstart button on the front of the Router Module (MKII).
Select the Prepare Coldstart option, and then force a restart by powering off, and then on, the Nova.
A cold start boots without loading any warm start data. You should perform a cold start only if there is a problem
with the warm start data, or if you wish to clear all warm start data from the system.
The best way to reset the console for a new job or show is to load a production. (A cold start resets the
system back to its
cold start data and factory default settings.)
