Using The Dpms Screen Saver With Cde - Planar Dome Md2/PCI Installation Manual

Using the DPMS screen saver with CDE

When you run CDE under the Solaris 2.6 or later operating
system, you can enable a Display Power Management Signaling
(DPMS) screen saver. DPMS provides a standard way to manage
the power used by your display monitor. DPMS shuts off the
video signal to the monitor when it has not been used for a
specified amount of time. This feature allows you to reduce
the amount of power your monitor uses and to extend the life
of your monitor's CRT.
You can enable DPMS through the Style Manager, just as you
would invoke any screen saver. You can also turn off DPMS to
prevent your screen from powering off during times when you
use the monitor frequently.
To set up the DPMS screen saver
1. Click the Style Manager.
The Style Manager dialog box appears.
