    Dear all,

    Possible to set Auto Power-On and Auto Power-Off for Udoo x86 board?
    e.g.
    (a) Auto Power-Off the board every weekday (ie. Mon-Fri) at 11:59pm,
    (b) Auto Power-Off the board every weekend (ie. Sat &Sun) at 8pm,
    (c) Auto Power-On the board everyday (i.e. Mon-Sun) at 9am

    If possible, how to do?

    Thanks!

    Two main approaches to this...
    Setting 'Wake on RTC from S5' in the firmware Power settings to power-on the board, and then for powering down, use an application or script in the OS to shut down the system at your desired time.
    Using the Intel Curie microcontroller to power-on and off the main processor. A bug can arrise in certain situations, where the Curie will stop running after the OS shuts down. A firmware update is currently being tested that will solve this issue.
