4-2-3-1 Standby Mode NOTE: The Standby mode is supported by units with software version v2.x and v3.x ONLY.
Select Standby Mode
This procedure describes the needed steps to power down the unit to Standby mode:
NOTE: Don’t press the 
ON/STANDBY button too long. If you press the button too long (more than 3-4 
seconds), a full shutdown is started.
1.) Press the 
ON/STANDBY key on the Operator Panel  once to display the System - Exit menu on the 
screen.
2.) Select  Standby to activate Standby mode. Leave the mains power cable connected and the  MAINS 
CIRCUIT BREAKER ON to keep the Un-interrupted Power Supply (UPS) battery fully charged.
Disconnect Power Cable When Unit is in Standby Mode
1.) Switch off the Ma ins Circuit Breaker.
2.) Disconnect the power cable. The system will remain in Standby  mode for approximately 15 minutes if the standby battery is fully 
charged. If the system is unplugged for a longer  period of time, a full shutdown is automatically 
performed.
As described above, the battery is automatically c harged when the system is plugged into the wall 
outlet and the circuit breaker is switched on. It ta kes about 10 hours uninterrupted, to charge a flat 
battery. 
If the system is left in the OFF condition (Circu it breaker in the OFF position and system unplugged 
from the wall out let) for an extended period of time (3 to 5 days or more), the system may not 
bootup or may beep when  turned ON. Should this occur, th e system needs to recharge the UPS 
batteries. This could take 15 minutes to as long  as 10 hours uninterrupted, depending on the battery 
age, system input voltage and system temperature. To eliminate draining the UPS batteries, the 
system should remain plugged into the wall outlet with the circuit breaker in the ON position.

4-2-3-1      Standby Mode (cont’d)
NOTE: Connect the power cable to the mains power out let again as soon as possible and at least 
before you switch on the Mains  Circuit Breaker and press the ON/STANDBY
 key.
NOTE: When turning ON a system from standby mode, it  takes a few seconds before it responds. Do not push 
the  ON/STANDBY
 button again during this period. A seco nd push will initiate a full shutdown. 
4-2-3-2 Complete Power Down NOTE: This function is not available from Standby mode.
Complete Power Down Procedure
1.) Press the  ON/STANDBY
 key on the Operator Panel once to display the System - Exit menu.
2.) Select  Shutdown to do a complete power down of the unit.
Back-End Processor will first turn OFF the Scanner  activity and print the message “Please wait - 
Shutdown in progress” in the LCD display on the Operator Panel. Then it starts to shut down itself. 
The time to turn down the unit including the Back-End Processor, may vary from 10 seconds up to 
approximately 1 minute. The last thing that shuts  down, is the light in the LCD displays, indicating 
that you can continue  with the next step. 
3.) Switch OFF the mains power  CIRCUIT BREAKER
 (located at the rear of the unit). This will cut 
power distribution within the unit.
If the Back-End Proc essor is still running when you switch off the mains power  CIRCUIT 
BREAKER, the internal Un-interrupted Power Supply (UPS) will switch  over to battery power and 
supply the Back-End Processor with power until it has shut down properly. 
A periodic high-pitched sound alarm indicates that  the Back-End Processor is running on battery 
power.
