Yes, Im a bit confused myself. When I turn the PCs ON, the monitors come on. When I shut the computers down (remotely via RealVNC) they shut off.
Do yours not turn off automatically?

Same here,
The "front end" of the sim is powered by one power bar, so switching on gives power to all PCs, monitors and power packs for backlighting etc.
When the PC is fired up, the monitor becomes live, and hey presto! I have a "walkround sequence" for PC starting - first the MSFS PC, then once that is running. Pilot MFD/ND. EICAS, CDU, MCP. F/O Displays, and round to the back for PM Systems / Instructor station.
PM Systems interrogates the hardware and sets the displays to off if the battery / bus bar / avionics master is off.
At the end of play, I switch off all computers via the PM CDU, and all is saved until next time.

Great, thanks! I was just wondering about that. I have a (rather old) LCD display that doesn't come on if the power is interrupted. My monitors will arrive tomorrow, so I can do a test then.
Anyway, now this question is answered as well as placed in the vault of knowledge.
