The rest of the valves should be closed

   * Ensure that the manual venting valve located on the south side of the chamber is closed (see figures below)  {{:wiki:fp-venting-valve-Daniel.jpg?350|FP chamber manual venting valve}} {{:wiki:fp-venting-valve.jpg?350|FP chamber manual venting valve}}

   * Open PanelMate **S800vac** and go to page 07. Make sure that the venting valve **I260VV** is closed (see last step of the [[#Vent focal-plane chamber|venting process]] described above)
   * Select window **PUMPDOWN STATUS** and click on button **START PUMPDOWN**. The **PUMPDOWN STATUS** and **VENT STATUS** windows should display "PUMPDOWN IN PROGRESS"
+       * The vent valve **I260VV** and foreline valve **I260FV** will be automatically closed
        * After the rough valve **I260RV** is automatically open, the mechanical pump will start pumping.
        * The pressures in the mechanical pump (from **I259PG**) and beam chamber (from **I261PG**) will jump momentarily to very high values. They should go down slowly after few seconds (otherwise, the chamber is not properly closed).
