Power¶

• Restart

  • Be patient while services shut down. A tune will play, indicating the shutdown is complete.

  • A gentle bep will sound when the Embassy is powered back on.

  • A chime will sound when the Embassy is ready to use. Please be patient as a Restart will take some time.

• Shutdown

  Caution

  After a shutdown, the only way to turn your Embassy back on is to unplug it and plug it back in. As such, we do not recommend shutting down your Embassy when you are not physically near it. Instead, you should use the restart option.

  • Be patient while services shut down, it may take some minutes. A tune will play, indicating the shutdown is complete.

  • It is now safe to unplug the Embassy from power and the ethernet cable, if connected.

• System Rebuild

  This action will tear down all service containers and rebuild them from scratch. No data will be deleted. This action is useful if your system gets into a bad state, and it should only be performed if you are experiencing general performance or reliability issues. It may take multiple minutes to complete. During this time, you will lose all connectivity to your Embassy.
