Screen Saver
Press
Utility > Display > Screen Saver Off On.
This toggles the operating mode of the screen saver.
Extend the life expectancy of the signal generator’s display light by activating the screen
saver. Leaving the display lit for long periods of time or turning the display on and off
frequently decreases the life of the bulb. With the screen saver on, the display light is turned
off after a defined period of time with no input to the front panel. The display light turns on
again when any front panel key is pressed or when a remote command is sent. The screen
saver is set to off at the factory.
Press
Utility > Display > Screen Saver Mode.
This toggles the screen saver mode between light-only mode and light-and-text mode.
Adjust the screen saver mode to turn the light on, off, or to turn both the light and text on and
off. Setting the mode to light-only mode turns the display light off, leaving the text visible at a
low intensity. If the display remains unchanged for long periods of time, set the mode to light
and text to prevent the text from burning the display. This mode turns the display light and
the text off.
Press
Utility > Display > Screen Saver Delay:.
This adjusts the amount of elapsed time before the screen saver is activated.
The screen saver delay is set to 1 hour at the factory. The current screen saver delay is
displayed in the softkey label in addition to the active entry area. To change the delay, enter a
new value using the numeric keypad or by rotating the front panel knob and then press
Enter.
The acceptable range of the delay value is 1 through 12 hours (1 hour increments).
The screen saver settings are persistent states; they are not affected by a signal generator
preset or power cycle.
Updating the Display During Remote Operation
Press
Utility > Display > Update in Remote Off On.
This toggles the display-update-in-remote mode on or off.
When toggled on, commands executed via the remote control bus will update the signal
generator display accordingly. When toggled off, commands executed via the remote control
bus will not update the signal generator’s display. Update-in-remote mode is set to off at the
factory.
