- If this is a ramping-down for the first time after a long time (i.e magnet was ramped-up after a long time since it was turned-OFF), then you should verify the magnetic field as the first step.
Skip to the Step #2 if this is not the case. - Verify that the shim PS (the bottom one in the following picture) is powered ON. If not, turn it on and check why it was off.
- Confirm that the main and shim switch heaters are OFF. If not, something is wrong. Also, the two LED bulbs Z1 and ZY-Z2 are OFF (see the bottom module of the above picture).

This indicates that the Mercury-iPS is more cautious with the rate of 'current' and it is adjusted by itself.
After a few minutes, the display should look like the following.
Wait until the VI indicates that it switched to "HOLD"
