On/Off switch - CityCentreFox - 04-18-2022
Good Evening
Been a user of moOde for a few years now and I am very happy with how it sounds. I am currently using a IQaudio DAC with a raspberry pi 3B+ in a normal case that is stored at the back of my separates system with a 500gb hard drive attached.
I wish to place this setup in a full size hi fi case with a screen and power button to safely shut down the pi or just turn the screen off. The pi is currently permanently on.
I have looked online at solutions but the only answers I am getting is basically no as I am using a DAC Hat so just turning the screen off with a switch might be a better option? Also I don't need it to be a touchscreen only a display for artwork, track/album titles etc.
Is this possible.
Kind Regards
CityCentreFox

There are many posts on this forum about implementing an off switch. The search function will serve you well.

You are wanting the functionality of an appliance...
This add on will do what you want and provide protection from power-line faults.
It has been working faultlessly for me.

I've been using this on my setup and I'm quite happy with it.
