RoboThespian >> RoboThespian Shut Down

Introduction

RoboThespian contains a PC and like any PC should be shut down fully before removing mains power.

This page explains how to shut down RoboThespian.

Before shutting down

If the robot is not in its resting position, then trigger the rest position from the COMPOSE screen

Shutdown using touchscreen

Access the administration section as detailed here

Under the 'System' tab in the Robot section press 'Shutdown' to shut down RoboThespian and the touchscreen kiosk. A message will confirm shutting down.

  • Admin System v2
  • Admin System v1

Earlier versions of the robot may require shutting down touchscreen and robot separately

Wait for RoboThespian to fully shut down - the LED on the computer on RoboThespian's back will turn off.

Please note that robot electronics will continue to run: eye screens will show a static graphic and (if fitted) body LEDs will continue to be illuminated

The touchscreen PC will close the interface, shut down and power itself off.

Switch off the mains power at the inlet or isolator
