Terminal command for automatic power on (Mac Mini)
I have an M1 Mac Mini in the rack of a broadcast truck, placed such that reaching the power button is, suffice it to say, difficult. In System Settings > Energy Saver, "Start up automatically after a power failure" is set to ON, but it does not seem to work--I still have to go outside and open up the side of the truck to get in and press the power button. I also have a 2014 Mac Mini in a different rack, which is much easier to access, but should still be turning on when I flip the breaker, and it does not.
Is there a Terminal command to ensure that the Mini will start up when it detects power?
I'm guessing that a "power failure" in the Energy Saver menu means something else--in our use case, the computer gets turned on during setup, remains on for the better part of a show, and turns off when we flip the breakers, but won't get turned on again for several days until the truck is being setup again. I'm told that the older Mac Mini used to do this, but stopped after some Mac OS update.
