Return Times Panel
The Return Times panel estimates when the operator should return to the system to perform an
action for the current worklist. If the operator does not perform the action at that time, a time-out
period begins, and processing pauses. The operator must take care to complete the action
before the maximum time-out period is exceeded (about three hours under normal conditions).

Auto Logoff
Unless the operator performs an action by the specified time, the system
will automatically log the operator off. If this occurs, the operator must log
back on before performing additional activities. A system administrator must
adjust or turn off the Auto Logoff setting. See “Configuring System Settings”
on page 5-4.
Note: If any magnetic wash stations are out of service, the return times will be estimates.
