You need a box commonly used in the days of yore called an "Idle
Line Motor Control". Pulse Com was one manufacturer that comes to
mind, but there were many otjhers.
It simply monitors a current loop for actiivity, and after sensing
none for a predetermined amount of time, shuts off power to the
machine.
As soon as it senses even the slightest keying on the loop, it turns
on the motor and keeps it running until the next idle period exceeds
the setting programmed into it, and poof, it shuts the motor off
again.
I have two or three of them around here somewhere, and it's almost a
certainty that collectors of "stuff" like Jack Hart or Don House
probably have some sequestered somewhere in their massive piles of
"Stuff".
I'll look around here today.
