Remotly power on RockPi4B

#1

Hello,

I have searched the forum and found an article, which might lead in the right direction.
is there a reset signal?
But I wanted to ask to make sure that I don’t accidentally fry something.
I am currently building an automated test laboratory with LavaCI, which requires the ability to turn a specific device on and off through a command from the LavaCI server (master).

My strategy is to send a signal via GPIO from the server to the rockPi4, which should trigger an interrupt handler to cause a clean shutdown. But when the device is shut down, I need a way to power it back on.
There is the possibility to power on the device on the Raspberry Pi by shorting pins 5 and 6 source. Is there a similar way for the RockPi4B? The forum post I found seems to refer to power the device with the help of a battery.

Greetings,
Sebastian

Hey,

I would like to give this topic a little nudge again.
Just in case it has gone under a little. I would also appreciate a simple ‘no’ so that I can be sure that I have to find another way.

No one even tried this. I would say that a way more plausible way is to use “smart plug”.

Thank you for the reply, I will look in that direction.
