@brianhartgen @dblazie Hi, Brian. There's a waiting period when you first boot up the unit if it's completely powered down. Once it's on you can put it in a sleep mode with fast wake-up times. A complete boot takes around 26 seconds. However, once the unit is on you can just quickly press the power button to lock the unit. Pressing the power button again instantly wakes it up and you're back where you were. Pressing the power button for a few seconds performs a total shut-down.
