It has separate auto on and auto off settings. However, the auto off takes a LONG time before it shuts off. Much longer than the S9 machines.

Started with a nasal mask and auto-on worked fine.
Then switched to full face and, as Paula02 noted, it did not work. I'm now using nasal pillows and really like the auto start. It works great.

RE: Why auto-on is a good setting to enable
With my old S8 Elite machine, I would wake up instantly upon a power failure, but have not experienced a power failure with my current S9 Autoset in the six months I have used it. I think I remember the S8 restarting if the power failure was just a blip, but that really does not make logical sense, since I am sure that auto start was not enabled, if even available.
I should have my wife unplug the S9 machine sometime to see what happens. There was an incident a few months ago with the new machine that scared the hell out of me and now makes me think more about autostart. This is the only time it has ever happened. I filled the tank, plugged in the cord, washed my face and the mask seal, put the mask on my face, adjusted it, turned off the light, lay down in the bed, got comfortable and FORGOT TO TURN ON THE MACHINE. I woke up two hours later severely disoriented but somewhat aware that I was not getting enough air and it seemed like forever to get the mask off. So, now I always either pull the hose off to check airflow or feel for the excess air coming out of exhaust port on the mask and am reassured when I hear the little whine at the end of a breath exhale.

I use a ResMed S9 Autoset with a Mirage Quatro full face mask and the auto-on and auto-off works every time. It’s great in the middle of the night when my fire/rescue radio goes off. It’s off with the mask on with the jump suit and out the door.
