Disable Screen Blanking?

Postby k2ue » Thu Jun 29, 2017 4:20 pm

My Tinker-based PiHPSDR blanks the screen after a few minutes until the mouse is moved again -- how can defeat this and have a constant screen?

Go into Preferences -> Power Manager and click on the Display tab. You can then disable the Power Management and set the screen blanking to Never.

Actually it seems to work the opposite -- I had blanking set to Never and Power Management set to OFF -- setting Power Management ON seems to have fixed it.
