Screen Saver Timeout
The screen saver blanks the terminal screen when no buttons have
been pressed or no touches detected for a specified period of time.
The screen saver is deactivated when the following occurs:
•
Major Fault. Switch modes after a Major Fault to re-enable the
screen saver.
•
Operator input — keypad presses, screen touches, or mode
switches.
•
A fault window is being displayed. The screen saver is
deactivated while a major fault message is displayed, but it will
reactivate itself automatically if a minor fault message is
displayed.
•
Updates to an active PLC Communication Status Display. Normal
operation resumes after the update is complete. If a PLC status
display window is already open and the message inside it
changes, the screen saver is not deactivated.
•
The PLC-controlled screen changes.
For PanelView 1000e terminals, see Screen Saver Display Intensity
(1000e only) above for an example of a screen display.
To set the Screen Saver Timout for PanelView 1200 (Enhanced Series F
and above), 1200e, and 1400e terminals:
1. For PanelView 1200 (Enhanced Series F and above), 1200e, and
1400e terminals, press the Screen Saver tab in the Terminal
Response screen to display the following screen.
2. Use the Up and Down arrows to set the length of time that will
pass before the screen goes blank and the screen saver is
displayed. Choose a time from 0 to 60 minutes. A setting of 0,
which is the default, disables the screen saver.
