Where is the TV icon on the Mac menubar

Channels DVR Server

Just received this from the DVR Server admin interface.

,macOS is configured to put the system to sleep after 1 minutes of inactivity. If your DVR computer goes to sleep, it may miss scheduled recordings. You can either: Open Settings.app > Energy Saver and check Prevent computer from sleeping Or, click the TV icon in the macOS menu bar (next to the clock), and select Install Auto-Wake Helperto wake up automatically for recordings

How do I get the TV icon to display on the Menu Bar? I’m on Sonoma 14.2.1 and there would not appear to be such an icon on my system (which is pretty standard other than I have iStat Menus to display extra stuff up there).

(I’ve installed the Helper via Terminal, but would like to have the icon option to see if there is anything else I’m missing.)

If you installed as a service then there wouldn't be a menu icon. There's nothing else interesting in the icon's menu.

Thanks - so in that case, I need to use the Terminal method to install the Wake Helper if I had previously uninstalled it. Correct?
