On the LattePanda Alpha 864 is there a setting for Auto Power On?
I'm in the bios an cannot find it under Boot.
I know this feature was added later on to my LattePanda original board with firmware 1.1 but would like to use this feature on the new Alpha 864 board.
Hoping someone can help me locate this feature.

I need this feature also, I think its very necessary. Do you plan a BIOS Update for this option?
See my older post from end of August, no answer yet (https://www.lattepanda.com/topic-f10t16 ... 227397b470).

I am yet another user looking for a solution. I want to use my new LattePanda Alpha as webserver. It is a disaster if there is a power outage and the server does not boot by itself. This always happens when I am travelling. I cannot believe if I have to hack up a hardware power on reset for something that is standard in most BIOSes. And on top of it I can find many posts about same problem with the original LattePanda where the fix is a BIOS upgrade. Why would you release a new LattePanda with the same problem? Is there something hidden in the BiOS we just cannot find?
Hi,
Same situation to me. I want use it for an industrial application and if it can't restart if an electric microcut occurs, then the board is not useful for industrial applications.
NOTE: On the kickstarter page you told us it could be used for industrial applications --> "... while providing greater security for industrial applications ..."

Any device on industrial applications should be able to recover its initial state if it reboots (if an electric cut occurs). With the current design, this model is an step back, because the previoud model had this feature available.
I'm very disgusted with this situation and I hope it will be solved soon.

Same request.
Auto power on is mandatory for my project.

To echo may others here, this really is a mandatory feature that is default on 99.99% of systems out there, to not have it is just bizarre
(doubly so consideridering the previous release had the same issue and had it added by a firmware update later due to user requests, so why on earth would you omit the option a second time?)

Coz when developing the BIOS, we met with some troubles to combine this feature as a open option in BIOS. And to deliver the product to our customers earlier, we release the default BIOS to the market first. So hope you can understand. It is caused by different CPU tech solution.Failquail wrote: ↑Wed Nov 21, 2018 5:17 pmTo echo may others here, this really is a mandatory feature that is default on 99.99% of systems out there, to not have it is just bizarre
