MiniStack v2 - Power down mode?

Can anyone who owns the miniStack v2 provide any details if the miniStack HD will power down (stop spinning) after a certain time period of no use, much like the Mac minis "disk sleep" option in the Energy Saver prefs?
I'd like to get the miniStack and use it to archive all my music, and would like to keep it on so I have access to that music from my network, but don't want it to constantly be spinning forever when it's not in use, and don't want to keep on manually have to power on/off the miniStack.
I read that it has some auto power on, but that's only dependant, I believe, on when the mini powers on/off. I keep my mini on, so I don't know if that miniStack power feature helps me.
Basically, I want the drive to "sleep" (stop spinning) when I'm not accessing it. Does the miniStack do this?

Hi Bryan
I have the older miniStack. It does power down when the drive is not in use.

DisplayPort HPD IRQ and Power Down mode

Hi,
I've been working with the DisplayPort IP V6.0 for a while now and have come across some potentiall undesireable/unspecified behaviour. All transactions on the AUX channel have been monitored using a Unigraf DPA-400 1.2 for reference
We have the IP configured as sink device and have had reports recently that when a DP source is connected to our card and out card is repowered, the DP source (PC graphics card), seems to write to DPCD register 0x00600 and set us into the D3 power down mode (b'10'). Shortly after this the sink generates a HPD IRQ signal to the source to indicate that it requries attention (see BlackScreens_on_Projector_Reboot.html, lines 388 and 398) . However, conducting the same test (power down and then up of a Dell 4K monitor), does not generate this HPD IRQ after being set in the power down mode (see Dell_Monitor_Power_Down, line 153 onwards).
Every time I have monitored the AUX bus and seen the DIsplayPort IP being set into power down mode, a HPD_IRQ is generated.
The DP 1.2 specification states:
2.9.3.5 Link Maintenance
The Sink device must maintain the Link Status flags in DPCD registers 00202h-00204h during normal
operation. Upon loss of synchronization with the Source for any reason other than after receiving a
SET_POWER_STATE (DPCD 00600h) to 10b request, or to request retaining the link for any reason, the Sink
must clear INTERLANE_ALIGN_DONE and generate a distinct IRQ_HPD (i.e. distinct from an IRQ_HPR
generated for any other reason).
I have looked at the software to confirm it is not the software generating the HPD_IRQ by writing to register 0x02C and have also confirmed this by monitoring the internal AXI bus to the core using the ILA. No writes are occurring to this register, therefore something in the core would seem to be generating this IRQ when it shouldn't be. As the source code for the DisplayPort IP is encrypted it is difficult to trace this problem any further.
To test this in isolation would require and AUX channel master that would undertake link training and then write to the SET_POWER_STATE register. Unfortunately the only DP sources we have are graphics cards at this point. Any suggestions on this front would be appreciated.
I have raised this with our FAE but thought I'd post here to see if anyone else has seen this behaviour.
Regards
Simon

Cosmos 2 self power down

My wife and I have had Cosmos 2's for about a month. Occasionally they will power down on their own - usually after a period of non-use. When this happens, the phones will not receive calls and have to go through power up before they can be used. Anyone else having this problem, and what can we do to prevent it?

I got it working again.What I did was soon after I insert the blade before it goes to power down mode I did a
hw-module module 8 reset cf:1
After that I could get into maintenance mode and reimage with 5.0(1) again.
IDSM-2 is working again for now.

My Andoid Devices wil not wake up my printer from Power Save Mode

I have an HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw istalled as a wireless network printer. I have various computers with XP and Windows 8 operating systems that wake up the printer from Power Save mode without problems. I also can print wirelessly from my Windows 8 phone. The problem arises when I try to print from my Android devices. I have installed the HP All-In-One Remote App from the Android Store and they seem to have installed correctly. They recognise the network printer, tell me that it is Power Save mode but are unable to wake it up. Can anyone help with this one please?
The Andoid version on the Tablet is 4.2.2

Hello Jerends and thank you for your attention to my printer problem. My printer already has a fixed IP address so no need to go down that road. I managed to get around the problem by deleting the HP All in One App from my Android devices and replacing it with the HPePrint App. It's not perfect but does the job.
Thanks again.

PRINTING IN COOL DOWN MODE PROBLEM IN HP LASERJET PRO 100 COLOR MFP M175a

i recently bought HP Laserjet pro 100 color MFP M175a but it prints like 40 pages and goes to cool down mode and it takes like 10 minutes to cool and again it prints 40 pages so i donot the problem

Hi @teko2014,
I see by your post that the printer keeps going into a Cool-Down mode. I can help you with this. I can help you with this.
I have provided a document with Resolving Control Panel Messages.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
Update the printer's firmware. HP LaserJet Pro 100 color MFP M175a Drivers.
Select your operating system, click next, click the link for firmware.
Where is the printer located? (enclosed cabinet, desk)
If the printer is in a enclosed area, temporarily move it to another open location and try printing again.
What is the paper's weight and what kind of paper are you using?

PowerMac G5 hangs after going into screen saver power save mode

I have a PowerMac G5 and it's been working fine, but as of late has been hanging. I had a couple of external disks on the machine ( Maxtor OneTouch II and a OneTouch III). I recently added two more OneTouch III and stripped the three OneTouch III's together in a RAID set. I'm wondering if that is causing the hangs, but I've also seen it hang without the RAID so I'm not convinced it's the RAID.
Anyway, I can't figure out what's causing it to hang, but it seems to hang at some point after the screen saver runs and then the screen goes into power saver mode. It's not hung right when it shuts down the monitor, but at some point after that.
When it gets in this mode, I can't remotely login using ssh and I can't seem to wake it up. What I end up having to do is to hold the power button down for several seconds until the machine powers off.
In an attempt to see what's going on, I set the OS X monitor power save mode to "never", but I don't think I left it that way long enough and I never saw it hang.
Does anyone have any debugging tips that would help me identify the culprit?

I've been having the same troubles lately. Seem
since the JAVA update. It hangs completely after the
screen is shut down. Every morning I have to reboot
with the power button.
I am also joining the crowd with this issue. I have a 15" Powerbook G4 that has acted normally until recently. Not sure exactly when it started, but about the same time as the recent updates. Similar behavior to the previous forum posts.
When I manually put the laptop to sleep it freezes up before it sleeps and the multi-language reboot warning comes up. This also happens if it is set to auto-sleep after xx minutes.
When I try to wake it up, the screen is black and the power light shows it is on and it never unfreezes or I get the reboot message.
I have tried everything I can think of to troubleshoot this. I just re-installed the 10.4.8 update over the exisiting one (using an external boot drive made with SuperDuper) and it still happens... BUT when I put the laptop to sleep with the startup drive being external, it seemed to behave properly. I can't figure this out since the external clone was made only minutes earlier from the laptop... and it works. I have zapped PRAM, and done the battery removal / power button reset.
Below is the "report" I have been getting - and sending to Apple. They must be getting tired of the many I have sent.
Any thoughts out there?
Thanks.

New LG Monitor Screen Image Keeps Shifting a few pixels left and right / goes into power save mode

I just purchased a new LG Computer Monitor from Best Buy today and hooked it up to my PowerMac computer. Shortly after setting it up, the entire screen image started sporadically shifting left and right a few pixels. And then, at seemingly random times, it'll shut itself down, going into power save mode. I checked the cables to make sure they were secure and they seem to be. Could there be some sort of interference that's causing it? Or would it be the graphics card? My computer is only a couple years old. Please help!

Do you have another computer you can plug the monitor into to test?

Power Save Mode - how to disable

My new Pavilion laptop (model # 17-e123cl) is connected to an external monitor. When I fold down the laptop screen the power saver mode kicks in and the computer goes off. I want it to stay on so I can place my wireless keyboard on top of the Pavilion and use the big external monitor. I was able to do this on my old Gateway but apparently not on this HP.
Is there a way to disable the power saver mode when it is closed so the computer will keep running and I can use the external monitor?

Hello gary,
Please go to the Options dropdown and choose Edit and remove your Serial # from your post.
Instead, it is more helpful to give your model number and operating system.
What you need to do is go into "Power Options/Advanced settings/Power buttons and lid" and change what happens when you shut the lid.
Here is a video from Microsoft on how to do it.
Hope it helps.

Nokia N8: Possible Power Saving Mode Bug

Dear All,
For the past week, I've change the way I use my Nokia N8. I decided to set it up in power saving mode during the evening. There is no point for it to be on 3.5G if nobody is using it. Unfortunately, I seem to have hit a problem. At the moment, my N8 is using a pay as you go sim card from O2 and this card is in the phone 24/7.
When I activate power saving mode, the phone re-registers with the network and the maximum speed it will have will be EDGE. In the morning, when I take my phone I disable power saving mode and the phone re-registers again with the network.
Having said that, on multiple ocassions, my phone showed some worrying symptoms. For example, a few das ago, when I disabled power saving mode, the phone did not show the 3.5G icon and I could not make any phone calls. The coverage was up and down. You might say that, it did not show 3.5G because you had no 3.5G you idiot. That is not true, where I live, there is 3.5G everywhere.
I was shocked that I could not make any phone calls. After a few reboots and taking SIM card out, I managed to get the phone in working order.
Today, the same thing happened. I managed to fix it just a few moments ago. It seems that the power saving mode option has an implementation problem or O2 does not like the way the N8 registers to the network when you enable and disable the said feature. Has anyone encountered this???

@m80116, this may well be a solution, but could be problematic if in a weak reception area where only Edge is available ? You could lose data connection completely ! I tend to use Dual mode, and generally don't have an issue, but certainly for anyone living and working in a very strong 3 or 3.5G area it may work very well, wish I had the luxury of being able to use 3G Only

Power saving mode / and broadband disconnecting pe...

I have recently started using the power saving mode and noticed that our BB speed has gone down to 2.4 from 2.9. While I know this is not a big reduction we had a lot of problems earlier in the year with V04 messages cos our speed dropped to around 2 and it took a lot of engineers visits to get it back up to 2.9. Also I noticed that our HH keeps disconnecting (at the moment it says it's been connected for 2 days) although this has been happening since we signed up to BT and not since using the power save mode..
Do you think it is the power saving mode or the fact that the HH keeps disconnecting periodically that is resulting in our speed reducing? I would really appreciate your help as I desperately want to avoid getting the dreaded V04 error messages!
Thanks
Debbie

Hi the variations in your speed are being caused by the restarts of your hub nothing toowith power saving mode you need to find the causes of thedisconections

Port flaps when PC is in Power saving mode

Hi Everyone
My Cisco LMS 2.6 installation reports a flapping port whenever a PC running Windows Vista Business is in power saving mode.
While this is not a major catastrophe, my syslog is filling up very quickly with more than 10,000 records within 24 hours.
Does anybody have any idea what to do? Is this problem solved with Windows 7?
Thanks.
- Andre

Whenever a PC/Laptop goes into the following states:
1. Sleep mode;
2. Log on/log off; and
3. Powers on
You'll see in the switch logs four error lines: 2 to report layer 1 going down and up and 2 to report layer 2 going down and up.
This is normal.

Officejet pro 8500a power saving mode

Yes you can go into the setup menu, to preferences down to Energy save mode and turn it off.
