STARTING THE UNIT
The IMPRESS unit has a “soft” power switch. When you plug the unit in, it will return to its last power
setting, which may have been “on” or “off.”
Turn the unit on by connecting the power and momentarily pressing the power button on the front
of the unit.
The boot process can take up to 60 seconds. During this time, the screen may be black or a series
of boot screens will be displayed (VGA only).
After the boot process is complete, the IMPRESS will begin playing pages. If this is the first time
your IMPRESS unit has been started, it will play a demonstration project. Otherwise, it will play the
default project last published from your PC.
If this is your initial use of the IMPRESS and after successfully reaching this stage, your unit is ready
to configure. Follow the steps under “IMPRESS Setup.”
» NOTE: Normally, the unit should be left on all the time, but if you need to turn off
the power (for example to connect expansion devices or to ship the unit), the
recommended method is to go through the on-screen menu > System > Shutdown.
