You have to actually set it at the time that you want it to wake up. It tells you that in the instructions.

There's more than one mode, the one your looking for is "cat activation" but it's also based on a timer,.. so if you set it for the sleep mode at 1am, the it allows x hours before it will run again, or it allows x hours till it sleeps ( I think it's 10?) so in that case it would only *not* run from 1am-11am. Call in, their phone support is super helpful and they'll walk you through it.

I've returned two of these because of the sleep mode issue and couldn't get any to wake using the manuals recommended wake option which is just by pressing any key. The sleep function varies it seems. the 1st went to sleep every 10-15 seconds. The 2nd went to sleep every 30-40 seconds.

I am thinking of buying a t240hd. I have a question I hope someone can answer. I cannot find anywhere if this unit has a sleep timer. Also there seems to be alot of concern about wall mounting. Can anyone help me with either of these questions

It seems to power down when powered down. The light goes off and the drives stop spinning. I'm not sure about sleep mode, my computer is either off or being used. Hope that helps.

If there has been a power failure the LED will flash slowly to let you know. Pressing and holding AUTO/SETUP at the time you like a wash to run (or CatActivation awake period to begin) will reset the timer. If you get a new CatGenie make sure it is the 120+ unit as that will give you the option of 24hr CatActivation so in that case it won't matter if there has been a power failure. As mentioned the unit just starts from where it stopped if it was performing a wash when the power failed.

I really am a novice at it. I have gotten it to sleep for maybe 3-4 seconds (after replacing the string- beforehand it was at most 1 or 2). I have no idea what I "should" be able to do, though.

This has a switch to turn it on or off. That's it. I keep it on 24/7 under a cat bed.

Well there is no ON or OFF button so the monitor goes into a sleep mode when there is no video feed. It still may consume power while in sleep mode but not much. Another way to turn it off is to isolate it from the power source. I hope this helped.

There is an option to set the machine to shut off after a certain amount of time. You must manually activate it every time you turn the device on. It's like the sleep function on your TV.

To my knowledge, you can't power it on. I just put mine to sleep and then use the keyboard to bring it back up. But if you have shut if off, you'll have to open it up to power it on.

I have used each Feliway one evening, one Feliway at a time. My cat is VERY territorial. I recently had another cat move into my house. When I put a Feliway unit by my cat in her bed, at night, she calmed down and went to sleep for the night. She is 19 years old so that may have a lot to do with how quickly she calmed down and went to sleep. When my cat is awake during the day, nothing calms her down. With another cat in close proximity, the Feliway patches don't have any calming effect. My cat has already sent a couple of people to the ER. The patches are supposed to last for a few hours.

Manuel mode. Turn switch on light comes on and stays on. Auto mode. Turn switch on off on. ( has to be done Quick off and on) It takes a few seconds to activate to auto mode. It's stays that way till you turn the switch off. Then you start over. If you have it on manual for the night and turn it off at the end of the night. The following day would be the same as instructed above. I'm very happy and works great. Hope It was helpful. P. s. It has I light sensitivity adjustment that's easy to adjust.

Hi Mellisa! How are you?Sure, You only need to press the following Keys (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) all them at the same time. Later, you will see an icon like a power button at the lower right corner. Press it, and then you will see 3 options: "Sleep, Shut down & Restart". Select the option that you need.I hope this works you.Regards from Costa Rica. Alvaro.

Do not forget one important step.... turn power on, and then - HOLD DOWN - and then turn tuning knob to get to "ON". Release and listen without interruption or automatic turn off in a preset time. This step is not clearly stated. Drive me NUTZ until I figured out what was not clearly stated. Must hold power button down to allow toggle to sleep timer adjustment.

it can take over an hour untouched to go in to sleep mode if that does not work try to reset it if all else fails contact the company.I had to contact them because both colliers worked at same time and on the same frequency but they contacted me back and resolved the issue within a couple days. I hope this helps you

No on off switch, but goes to sleep 15 minutes after its used. Mine is connected to a Synology server via USB 3.0. It backs up every night at 1 am, so have not see it actually "on" in quite a while. Back ups run just fine and the log shows they are all there daily with no errors. Now the reason it is asleep is due to a setting in the Synology software. I could have it on all the time, but why? If I manually access the drive thru the Synology server it comes right up with no issue, AND is fast! Thats the best part. I would buy another if I needed one, no problem.

Make sure it's charged. I set mine on the most sensitive setting and on #6. My cat ran and hid! Works for me!
