1. Remove AC power from the Surgeon Console and Vision Cart by flipping each of their
mains circuit breaker switches to off (indicated by “O” near each switch). Leave them off
until the step in this sequence (below) that instructs you to switch them on again.
2. Because the Patient Cart will operate on battery
even if you switch off its mains circuit
breaker, you must use the EPO (Emergency Power Off) button—the large red button on
the rear of the Patient Cart. The EPO button both disconnects the Patient Cart from AC
power and exits the default standby or sleep mode. Press the EPO button once to remove
all power; it will remain partially depressed. After at least 2 seconds, press the EPO button
again to reset it; it will rebound to its fully extended ready position, as it was before.
3. Switch on the mains circuit breaker switches on the Surgeon Console and Vision Cart.
(
T
he Patient Cart circuit breaker should already be in the on position; make sure it is.)
After about 30 seconds, all three system components should be back in their default
standby power state, indicated by their Power buttons being lit amber.
4. Power on the system normally, by pressing the Po
w
er button on one of the Surgeon
Console, Vision Cart or Patient Cart.
• To address anomalous power behavior when trying to power a single system component
i
n
stand-alone mode, “hard-cycle” power as described above for the applicable
component.
Restart from Automatic High Temperature Power Down
The entire da Vinci System is designed to undergo an automatic, controlled power-down
sequence in case a component or subsystem overheats while in normal operating mode (as
opposed to maintenance mode or stand-alone mode), thereby preventing system damage.
When the system detects overheating, it automatically initiates a 60-second power down
sequence and displays a message announcing it and showing the countdown. The power
down sequence cannot be interrupted. When it is complete, all three system Power buttons
will be lit amber, indicating the systems are in their default standby or sleep state.
• We recommend that you wait 5 minutes for the overheated portion of the system to cool,
and if possible, address situations that may be causing the system to overheat. For
example, make sure that all vented system covers are not blocked, and move systems
away from objects that may obstruct air flow in and out of system covers.
Follow the usual steps to restart the system from standby:
1. Press one of the system Po
w
er buttons. This powers on the system as normal; the Power
button LED flashes amber as normal during the power-up sequence, and lights solid blue
when power-up is complete.
• If overheating recurs, you can repeat the restart to recover, but we recommend that you
seek
assistanc
e from ISI Technical Support to address the cause of overheating.
“Cool Mode” Restart from Stand-Alone Mode
If overheating of a single component results in automatic power-down when it is operating in
stand-alone mode, it requires three Power button presses to recover that component to
normal operation. This is called “cool mode,” the mode in which the system component is
cooling from an overheated state. The button press behavior is as follows:
1. First Power button press has no noticeable effect.
2. Second Pow
er button press returns the system component to standby state, as indicated
by its Power button lighting amber after several seconds.
