Screen Saver During Work Day

On CRT based displays, such as the Barco MGD series, a "regular"

screen saver can be invoked during user inactivity during the work day.

This "regular" screen saver and its settings can be chosen from the

"Screen Saver During Work Day" section. We recommend using an all

black screen saver, such as the "Barco Blank Screen" saver, for the

longest phosphor life.

On LCD based displays, such as the Barco CORONIS displays, it is

not necessary to invoke a screen saver as there is no CRT phosphor

to preserve. However, one can extend the life of the backlight in the

LCD display, in addition to realizing great power savings, during period

of user inactivity by quickly entering the Off state. We recommend

setting the work day to be as short as possible to get the maximum

power savings on CORONIS displays.

Changes settings for the selected screen saver.

If you have an display controller that supports DPMS calls, then you

will be able to set the DPMS Settings for after the work day. Otherwise,

a text box will be displayed telling you why DPMS functions are not

available.

After the work day, the display will be placed into one of the following

DPMS Power States: Stand-By, Suspend, or Off. The default setting is

for the display to directly go into the Off State and spend no time in the

Stand-By or Suspend states. If the user wishes to go into the Stand-By

or Suspend states before going into the Off state, select the required

amount of time for each state.

If requested, the display will first go into Stand-By state, then into

Suspend state, and then into Off state. The properties of DPMS states

are listed in the following table:
