4.1.3 Issuing the HALT Command Before Removing Power
Gracefully shutting down SecureSync by using the HALT command offers the fol-
lowing advantages over shutting the unit down by interrupting the power supply:
The shutdown process will be logged
The System Clock will update the Real Time Clock with the latest System
Time.
SecureSync's file system will be synchronized, which under some cir-
cumstances will allow for faster startup next time the unit will be powered
up.
The HALT command may be issued to the SecureSync via:
the WebUI
the front panel keypad
the front panel serial port.
Note: Wait 30 seconds after entering the HALT command before
removing power.
Once the HALTprocess has been initiated, the front panel display will show halt-
ing and the time display will stop incrementing.
