Topic: Turning off SD

Okay, super noob question...

Is there a proper way to turn off the solidoodle? There's no power switch that I'm not seeing, right? Is it really just unplug?

Should I wait for things to cool down before unplug? or when job is done I can just unplug?

Yep, just unplug it, till you upgrade it yourself with an on/off switch.

Re: Turning off SD

I usually wait until the extruder and printbed are below 50c and then hit the switch on the powerstrip that the S2 is connected to...

Or if you are running linux and have a home automation system, you can do something like this:
