Abstract
A keypad circuit provides a signal corresponding to an actuation of a button. A query is presented to confirm intent to place an apparatus in a low-power state in response to the signal. The apparatus assumes a low-power state in response to a confirmation. The apparatus is also configured to assume an active state from a low-power state in response to the signal. Point-of-sale terminals and other apparatus can be controlled and operated accordingly.
