Overview
Starting up
Powering on the processor and menu monitor starts the system,
and the initial screen (see page 4-8) appears on the menu monitor.
The system is now ready for control panel and menu operations.
Start-up state
It is possible to save function on/off settings and parameter values
in nonvolatile memory, and arrange to recall these settings
automatically when the system is started.
If no such setting is made, the system starts up with the factory
default settings.
For details see “OPERATION menu” on page 10-7.
Powering off
You can power off the system regardless of the current display on
the menu monitor.
Note
Do not power the unit off during any of the following operations.
• While a floppy disk is being accessed (see “Floppy Disk
Operations – 77” on page 8-15)
This may cause files on the floppy disk, or backup copies of data
in the processor (contents of effect registers or snapshot registers)
to be corrupted.
• During installation of the software (see “Installing the Software
in the Processor – 724” on page 10-32)
• While writing setup data
If the unit is powered off during operation, the data being written
may be corrupted. If you power the unit off inadvertently, restart
the system with the factory default settings, then make the required
settings or restore the settings by loading again from the floppy
disk.
