Instead of using your sentry's rest ability, you can now turn yourself off completely during a long rest, rendering you unconscious but you only need to rest for 3 hours instead of 6. You shut down all systems within your body except for an internal timer that is set to turn you back on after 2 hours and 50 minutes. While in this state your body becomes completely stiff like a statue. You are unconscious and cannot be "awakened" by any means other than the timer reaching completion. This includes taking damage and party members attempts to wake you. Upon completion of the timer you begin a boot up phase which takes 10 minutes to complete. You are still unconscious during this state, but your body begins to have signs of activity. This activity can be lights coming on, humming fans, gears grinding or something similar. After the boot up you regain consciousness and have completed your long rest.
If you are reduced to 0 hit points during the off state the timer pauses until you regain hit points. If you are reduced to 0 hit points during the boot up phase, the boot up starts over once you regain hit points.
Additionally you can enter the 10 minute boot up phase as a short rest once per day(resets at dawn). However this short rest will only allow you to regain hit points from only one hit dice. All other short rest benefits are as normal.
