Waking a Sleeping Mac

I am a new TurboVNC user. Is there a way to wake a sleeping Mac Mini? If my desktop Mac is sleeping, I can never get to the login window. I just see the desktop and there is a rotating icon that continues forever. Also, I can't seem to prevent my Mac from sleeping.

I’ve never personally tested the TurboVNC Viewer with the macOS VNC server. If there is another VNC viewer that performs as you expect, then I can look at what that VNC viewer is doing, but I am unaware of any method by which a VNC viewer can wake a remote system.
