Well, I'm not very good at deciphering indirect answers but if you are in the US, that is, 120V, then there is no problem with leaving the command station on indefinitely, I have left it on for months at a time without a problem and went picked up where I left off.  However, I keep all my computer based synth gear on UPS power, because you never know when power can drop and lose or corrupt your work......

GOOD QUESTION buddy - I will have you know that here in America we 
run our frequency at 60 Hrz with 120 V (generally) (sometimes 240 V 
in big appliances, usually with those big 3 prong plugs) - UK it is 
100 V with 50 HRz -

and operate the units at 120V.
