Hi, I have problem with the Panel PC 900, the screensaver is not activated. Before the screen has active after 10 minutes, if don’t touch a screen. I would like to know how to activate it.
ok. what OS is used there and what have you changed?
The OS is window7. I have change on the “Power option” menu at “Turn off the display” and select a timeout 5 minutes.
..but screensaver and turn display off is not the same functionality.
Summary generated by AI:
Screensaver:
- What it does: Shows moving images, animations, or patterns after a period of inactivity.
- Purpose (originally): Prevent image burn-in on CRT or plasma monitors.
- Modern use: Mostly aesthetic or used for locking the screen after idle time.
- Display remains ON.
- Uses more power (especially with animations or 3D effects).
Turn Display Off:
- What it does: Completely turns off the monitor after a set time of inactivity.
- Purpose: Saves power and extends screen life (especially with LCD/LED displays).
- Display is OFF.
- More energy-efficient than a screensaver.
Which One to Use?
- For power saving, prefer “turn display off.”
- For locking the screen with a nice animation, use screensaver with password.
- You can use both — e.g., screensaver after 5 min, turn off display after 10 min.
So, I think you turn off the display before the screensaver is activated, and that is why screensaver no longer works for you.
