Shut Down Scheduler for System 7
- Thread starter lem150
- Start date
Which version of 7? The power management Control Panel (whatever it's called, never use it) supports powering down. Otherwise, you could use AppleScript.
How do you want to set it?
How are you going to power it down if you don't have soft power? Who's going to switch the switch, so to say?
I was wondering. That makes more sense. Does it do a time delay so you can trigger it from the Mac? Or are you working on the assumption that the Mac is always going to shut down (note that an unsaved document will block a shutdown request for example).
Do you want the time of day to be variable, or basically always the same? Like, would writing a script that just waited until the time and shut down be enough? Or do you need an interface to update the time etc?
Ah so its just my "file server" Centris 610, it turns on automatically at 4pm and I want it to turn off at 10pm, the wifi plug thingy just is on an app and turns the plug on/off whenever. I don't want the computer just getting the power pulled, I wanted something that would auto click the Special-Shut down just before the wifi plug turns it off.
I'll knock something together for you when my cat gets off me. Should be sometime this year
