Screen Saver Timeout

The screen saver blanks the terminal screen when no buttons have
been chosen or no touches have been 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 , such as keypad presses, screen touches, or mode
switches.

A fault window appears. The screen saver is deactivated while a
major fault message is displayed, but is reactivated automatically
if a minor fault message is displayed.

An active PLC Communication Status Display is updated.
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 Timeout for PanelView 1200 (Enhanced Series
F and above), 1200e, and 1400e terminals:

1. In the Terminal Response screen, select the Screen Saver tab to

display the following screen.

2. Use the Up and Down arrows to set the length of time before the

screen goes blank and the screen saver appears. Choose from 0 to
60 minutes. A setting of 0, which is the default, disables the
screen saver.
