stop the daq

pause merger

stop TapeServer

housekeeping checks

bias off

individually turn power relays off

switch off 2x NIN bins, 1x fan tray

do not turn off clock!!

turn off aida circuits at power box (careful!)

turn chiller off - press and hold arrow button

front panel switch on chiller - off

wall 3 phase power - off

withdraw aida clear from DTAS - slowly!

return power tool, temperature probe and water container to corral

*if cables*

network cables - blue, disconnect at switch, reel up at stairwell

disconnect clock

aida plastic high voltage and signal

cables from root macb trigger and reset to DTAS

mains cables from mains box

then move aida!
