Zero narrows its single eye at the unhelpful Dez. "Your helpfulness leaves much to be desired..."
The droid returns to the compute and asks, ~So... What can you do? What are your functions?~
Since Shunna is waiting for Zero and Dez, she will tell Callie to move to the passage in the NW corner and keep watch. She will also wave at the Talz to come to join them.
The Callie sprints to the NW entrance and peers in, trying to see as far as possible without venturing beyond sight. Ubi, the talz, and the zabrak run up as far as possible (double move).
The computer replies to Zero..

in essence the computer read off its menus to you..
there are two main menus Alarms and security and reactor control
in the alarms and security menu there are options to control the radiation shield and the alarm klaxxon/lights as well as send out an emergency brodcast.
in the reactor control there are options for diagnostics scan, safety mode, restart, restart in safety mode, full shut down, rapid shutdown (an emergency override is provided), timed shutdown (being able to schedule a shutdown at a particular time), timed restart, et cetera.
Zero thinks if he wants specific details he will need to ask specific questuions as this dumb computer takes commands very literally.
Zero wants to know what is the safest way to shut everything down without killing everyone before or after the power is shut down.
Can the computer create a count down.
If it can create a count down can it count down and then restart itself safely after a specific amount of time.

Apparently my answer got lost, so here it goes again.
Short answer Yes.. Timed shutdown is an option, as well as Timed Restart. Minimum normal shutdown takes 10 minutes. Anything faster requires an emergency override because the reaction must be slowed down first or it could meltdown. Timed shutdown delays the start of the shutdown process. The minimum shutdown time for emergency shutdown or emergency restart is still one minute.
Shutting down the reactor will not automatically shut off the energy force field, as it will switch to battery backup. Most critical systems in the station, like the medbay or docking bay particle shields (keeping the atmosphere in), also have a battery backup, but things like docking clamps et cetera would not have battery backup.
While Zero is getting an understanding of the possible commands of this computer, Ui, Njon and the zabrak reach Shunna, Dez and the aqualish.
"What are we waiting on, we need to catch whatever ship the Imps have before it leaves." the zabrak snarls.

"Is there anything useful in this?" Dez hands the datapad to the zabrak.
[OoC: How close is the group to the ship? How long does the ship require to start up? How many guards are there between here and the ship? These are some things that I think you should assume Zero knows that me, the player, doesn't know. It's difficult to formulate a plan when Zero's player doesn't have any knowledge of what lay head but Zero may know quite a bit of what to expect.]
Zero quickly explains the situation to the others then adds...
"I recommend a timed shutdown as it is the safest option. It's against my programming to bring physical lasting harm to the individuals who reside in this base."
