[OPS (Mini PC's)](https://support.commbox.com.au/knowledge/commbox-accessories?hsLang=en#ops-mini-pcs) # Do I need to turn my OPS on? The OPS is powered by the CommBox panel and should power on when the OPS source is selected. If the OPS doesn't automatically power on when the OPS input is selected on the CommBox, you can hold down the small power button on the front of the OPS to manually power it on.  In your windows search bar search for power & sleep settings on the OPS to ensure screen and sleep settings are set to never. Your OPS will then stay powered on and running until you manually shut it down or the panel loses power.   ![](https://support.commbox.com.au/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.comaus-cdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction51031920533originalP6qWy7EaJ7M62FAE27KMg40ZjGCRSS83zw.pn) ![](https://support.commbox.com.au/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/support.commbox.com.ausupportsolutionsarticles51000267138-do-i-need-to-turn-my-ops-on-hit.gif) -
