How does the sleep/wake function work and can I turn it off?

When you close the cover on the iPad cover your iPad goes to sleep (to not waste battery) and when you open the cover it wakes up. This is optional. You can go into the settings of your iPad to turn this function off - yes (I also read this portion on a previous review).

The flap is magnetic and puts the iPad "to sleep" when you lay it over the screen - much like pressing the sleep button on the top of the iPad. I don't think you can disable it, but if you're closing the flap you couldn't see the screen anyways so it's probably best to turn it off. The screen "wakes up" as soon as you lift the flap, but you will have to unlock it with your pin if you enabled that feature. Hope this helps!

I'm not sure what you mean. It's just an iPad cover. The cover does its job!

Once you plug in the device into the port it powers on. I do not believe there is a sleep mode.

The E17 does have a sleep timer on it. You might want to check and see what it is set at. It's accessable through the menu and is labeled 'sleep' I ended up just turning it off.

Windows puts devices to sleep. In Device Manager look at the properties tab of your bluetooth devices or in the usb controllers tab (usually a host controller), look for a properties tab called (power management), uncheck the box that says "allow computer to turn off this device", done.

I don't think the case itself has a sleep/wake function but the tablet and the keyboard dock does. So when you close the tablet/keyboard together it while it's in the case then yes. But just the tablet with just the top half of the case I'm not sure.

Yes it puts it into sleep mode. Make sure you buy cover they supports this function. Haven't noticed any significant battery life reduction in this mode.

No..this does not provide an auto sleep/wake function when opening or closing this case.

To be honest, I'm too sure. I always make sure to turn off my screen before I close the case up. I know you have to go into you settings and accessories to turn on that feature but I don't think this product triggers auto sleep.

No sleep mode. It shuts off and you have to turn it back on. It is the only thing that I don't like about these units.

You can't. I was not happy to find that out. I am not happy with that non-option. The 3 sounds they do provide are not what I would typically use to try to wake. The charge port also broke on mine within days of buying it. I want to return it.

The keyboard does not have a power/on off sleep button. It is powerd from the usb connection.

Sleep mode means on but saving power, wake is using full power. So say you are using your nook but have to walk away for a bit.You can close the cover and it will automatically put it into sleep mode to save your battery and uses less power but does not turn it off. When you open the cover its right where you left it.

I didn't have to do anything to make it auto sleep. It just worked. Sorry, I wish I could help.

That depends on the settings. I couldn't give an accurate answer because I'm usually asleep by the time it shuts off. Sometimes when I set it on the next to the last setting it is still on in the morning. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

There is an option to set the machine to shut off after a certain amount of time. You must manually activate it every time you turn the device on. It's like the sleep function on your TV.
