Startup and Shutdown
2 System Shutdown
Note:
It is recommended that the system should be shut down at the end of every working day.
To power down the system, click the System Shutdown button on the Browser window. A con-
firmation message is displayed asking if the entire system should be shut down, If your response is Yes,
power is removed from the Senographe DS Gantry and other system components, while the Control Sta-
tion begins a controlled shutdown, designed to safeguard data. Complete system and UPS shut down
takes about two minutes from switch-off.
!
Notice:
The Control Station follows an automatic shut down procedure which protects image and patient
data. No prompts are displayed. Do not disturb this procedure by attempting to enter commands
at this time.
CAUTION
NEVER switch off at the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) except in emergency (risk of
data loss).

mation being processed at the time is lost, and the Conditioner which controls the Digital Detector
environment is switched off.
