This is in solid beta stage. Installation requires a little Linux knowledge.

==Introduction==

When the system is to be used again, simply wake it up with WOL (ref. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake-on-LAN). There are many tools to generate WOL packets, and it is even possible to wake your server over the internet (good link: http://www.wakeonlan.me/).

The easiest way is to install Amahi Energy Saver via the Amahi One Click installation. Please see here: http://www.amahi.org/apps/amahi-energy-saver

Alternatively you can install manually:

==Integration with Amahi calendar==

1. In the config app, select ical in the Calendar field.

The following description was created based on Sunbird 1.0b1 running on Windows 7.

Please note that MythTV installation itself is non-trivial. The above assumes that MythTV is correctly installed and working.

==Let other apps control Amahi Energy Saver (version 0.8.12 and later)==

Sometimes you may wish to prevent Amahi Energy Saver from suspending the HDA while some other action is ongoing. There are two simple interfaces to achieve that.

Amahi Energy Saver regularly checks the directory /usr/share/aes-lock for scripts and executes them. If any of the scripts returns an errorlevel of 1, the HDA will not be suspended. Both Bash (*.sh) and Ruby (*.rb) are supported.

}}

Amahi Energy Saver regularly checks the directory /usr/share/aes-lock for files with suffix '.lock'. As long as any such file exists, Amahi Energy Saver will not suspend the HDA. This is useful for other applications that support events. One Event may trigger the creation of the lock file, and another one may delete the lock file.

Make sure to use individual names for the lock files, so that you don't accidentally delete the lock file of another application.

==Selecting ShutdownType==
