Do I understand correctly, that I can turn the power switch off to the unit when home, then turn it back on and it will reset itself?

The only that resets is your broadcast message,goes back to default,Warning you are Trespassing!

I believe this unit does have a built in battery back up to maintain its' setting. The lights and optional audio warning do not function without power, but the setting will be retained until the back up battery is drained. Also, the video recordings on the SIM card are not lost with a power loss. Hope this answers the question.

Yes, that is correct, however, the reset will default to the first audio option of "You are trespassing" I keep the power on the unit 24 / 7 in order to maintain my settings.

On my unit if the power plug gets pulled when it is on it comes back on. So if the unit is own a power strip and the power strip gets turned off the unit will power back up. I keep my unit on my desk but keep it powered off unless I need to use it.

Don't really know the elegant or proper way but you can always disconnect all the power to the device and that should reset it.

I try and leave my switch on and use the remote. But on the times when I forget, the fan and light resume the operations that were going when the switch was turned off.

To expand on what Marcus said, if you were to turn off your TV manually, the remote doesn't know that. However, if this happens, there's a Help button on the remote you can use to get everything working again. It asks you several yes/no questions about the status of your equipment, and once you're done going through that, then everything's working again.

No. I tested it by popping the GFI (Circuit Breaker) and it resets to "OFF". I also unplugged it, while it was running and then plugged it in again and it had reset to "OFF". Hope this helps.

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.

Whenever the unit gains power back it defaults to a power on state, which if memory serves right just turns on the last built in macro of the unit that you were using the last time it got powered off. Hope this helps.

I have mine plugged into a gfci outlet in my kitchen. If the outlet does trip you will have to pull the unit off to reset it

I have done it once. First try unplugging it and disconnecting it for 10-20 seconds. This might help you not have to reset it.

There is a power switch on the board itself. I believe there is a reset switch as well.

Yes, the manual on/off switch is one of the four buttons on the top of the unit, and will toggle the power from any mode

Yes it does reset once the power comes back on. However there is no indication the power went out, even briefly which would be nice to know. But still it addresses the issue we had - the GFI tripping and we didn't notice it until we go in the garage for something.

Yes... it will turn back on to the EXACT settings as before the power went out!!!

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?

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.

If you have an Off/On switch just disconnect it and wire the control unit as described in the instructions in place of the switch making sure you have the wires (power in and power out and ground ) wired correctly.
