Hi, it starts automatically and stays on , and when its on u can click on soft power button to standbt ( might need to unplug and plug power if u do that) and reboot . So I keep it on all the time unless it gets hot, which is not often, then I unplug to rest it.

There is no power switch on this. I plugged it into a power strip to power it on and off.

turns on automatically you have to plug it into the charger it comes with or one with the same voltage or it will keep restarting

There is an on/off power switch but you can easily leave the switch to 'on' and utilize the USB cord as a power cord, so that when you plug it into your computer it will automatically kick on.

There is no external power button. A shortcoming for sure, but what I did was set my computer to startup at a specific time each day in the schedule settings under power control in the system preferences.

The product should power on immediately upon receiving power. In the worst case, you'll have to turn it on with the included board once, and then it should behave the way you want it. I built this into a case of mine not too long ago and needed this behavior.

power cycle the system. upon power up make sure you set the device address properly.

Yes, turns on when you power up. I have not figured out how to manually turn it on yet.

It does not power on automatically. You have to use the remote as far as I know.

No plugging this device in turns it on and it's an always in device until unplugged.

Starts as soon as you apply power. You could add a simple switch though if you like

No, it does not automatically turn on. You have to push the switch forward.

Mine set automatically when we plugged in the phone. We didn't have to do anything.

I believe you have to either touch the power button and turn it on or else simply plug it in and it starts on auto. I have been simply plugging it in and then unplugging it when its not needed.

I believe the button will need to be manually pressed as the power does not come on to the unit just by plugging it in. If you have frequent outages, have you considered using a UPS (universal power supply) to connect it, which can keep it running during short outages... In which case if the power comes back on shortly thereafter you won't need to manually restart since it won't have quit in the first place?

test load for 24 hours before use. and then press the power button for 3 seconds

No lights come on, and the unit doesn't really get warm when it's operating, so there aren't any visible signs of power being on. Hasn't been a problem for me, though, as it has always worked really well so I personally don't need to see any visible sign of the device getting power.

If you mean that once it is properly placed on the wrist and the button has been pushed....then yes it will do everything automatically from that point. You do have to press the button again to turn the power completely off. Nice unit.

It will take a minute to come on. It will auto power down if the unit sits ideal........ther is no power switch poor design not having a power switch.
