does the device remember the station or do you have to set it every time? Is it easy to set the station without losing the power connection?

This device remembers the station - if it loses the power connection it will automatically go back to the last station it was at before losing the power

Yes and yes. The whole device is fairly clunky and large, but it works very well otherwise.

The device does retain it's settings when unplugged, and the buttons were pretty easy to access when my phone was not 'mounted'.

The device remembers the station, so you don't have to reset it every time.As for setting the station without losing the power connection, it was pretty easy for me when I set the station and I never lost power connections. Hope this helps.

the power light comes on when there is re-engaged power. The settings won't be re-iniated though. You have to manually slam the thing against the wall and call it a day. Its a one hit wonder, and I hit it once and wondered why I bought the dern thing! :)

Since I use a timer to control the period of "charging", I do not have that knowledge. The timer, of course, has to remain ON all the time to keep the time. I doubt that the power goes off in the smartstrip "always on" group or the name would not be "always on".

It will keep its settings in memory. We have a lot of power surges as well and have never had an issue to where we've had to reset it each time.

No... it will remember the alarm settings, but you have to reset the clock time if it loses power. Fortunately, that is easy to do.

I set mine one time and never had to bother after that. When it worked it worked well. Sadly it has never worked for more than a few months for me. The GPS dies. I've ended up using it as a overpriced bike computer just using the ANT+ sensors.

It will remember where you left off, however you must set the the 'power resume' function to 'ON' in the system setup as described on page 13 of the owner's manual.

I do not recall if we've tried that.. but would guess it does since it needs to keep a lot of config stuff saved - particularly if you get the WIFI dongle thingie..Actually, now that I think about it, I think we've had some power failures since we installed ours and I don't recall having to do anything after the power came back.. Perhaps someone else can chime in too to ensure I'm not wrong..

When the radio "forgets" the security code, have you tried to power it off, wait a few seconds, and power it on again? When initially setting up my radio and trying different wireless security settings, I found that the radio really wasn't losing the codes although it was prompting for them. Simply powering down and up again allowed it to connect.

Yes, and it is surprisingly sensitive. I get numerous stations in a fringe area. And it has station presets. Handy gadget.

Yes, the unit will remember the settings without power. Mine has been unplugged for 3 months and it remembered the settings I last used for the set point temp and the differential range all in the proper units.

If I set it for 10 minutes will it remember it next time or do I have to set the timer again?

I have had many power failures but I never had to re-program this unit. I am not sure how it does but does remember settings. Please note the Power failures we have seen here only lasted a few hours maximum. I have to reset all radio-clocks that is how I notice power failures...

No, the unit does not turn itself back on - you have to press the power button. The frequencies are saved when power is turned off, both the current frequency and the ones stored in memory.By the way, to set a memory without using the remote control:- Tune to the station you want to store.- Tap the menu button until MEMORY appears.- Tap the enter button.- Press the desired memory button.

I have never had an outage, but it's fully manual, so I would expect it to restart exactly where you set it.

The Wifi settings are persistent so, if you remove power it'll reconnect to the same WiFi when you power it on again. You might have to refocus it each time you move it and that might be a pain since the focus is a manual adjustment. If you don't mind unplugging the adapter and refocusing it each time, it could be moved from room to room.

There are 2 Ways these will automatically Turn off, The First way if you put in charge mode by switching them off and connecting them back to the Base Station, and the Next way is After like 5min of inactivity from the source its connected to, it will switch off on its own!
