Note: Do not log out of the operator account if the system is going to be shut down. When
the system is shut down, the software automatically logs out the current operator.
Note: In-process worklists continue processing.

samples. However, ARs can be unloaded when the system is running an automated
maintenance task.
Note: To prevent contamination, always use a new cap when re-capping an AR
bottle.
