The power button for the TBT-UDH2 is simply to turn the dock on or off. This button does not have any influence on the computer itself (power button will not power on/off the attached host system).

Do Any Ports Receive Power While the Dock Is Off?

When the dock is powered off all devices attached to the dock will also lose power and the dock will no longer be recognizable by the system or offer charging (until it is turned back on).

Do I Have to Turn On the Dock Manually?

Please note that the dock will automatically power on when attached to AC power and this is indicated by a white light on the front. If the LED is off, simply press the power button to turn on the dock.
