Command
Description
?VIDOUT_SLEEP
Requests whether a a Video Output port turns off TMDS lines.

SEND_COMMAND <DEV>, "'?VIDOUT_SLEEP'"
Example:
SEND_COMMAND 5002:1:11, "'?VIDOUT_SLEEP'"

VIDOUT_SLEEP
Sets if a Video Output port turns off TMDS lines. While most monitors handle the sleep function well,
some monitors continually attempt to wake up, resulting in constant or intermittent screen blanking
when no video is present.
For the video output attached to the problematic monitor, either uncheck the Allow Display Sleep
option and set the Blank Color in the System Configuration interface (see page 127) or set
VIDOUT_SLEEP-DISABLE
and
VIDOUT_BLANK-<color>
.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'VIDOUT_SLEEP-<ENABLE|DISABLE>'"
Example:
SEND_COMMAND 5002:1:1,"'VIDOUT_SLEEP-ENABLE'"
?VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY
Requests the amount of seconds the blanking color is displayed before the TMDS lines turn off.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'?VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY'"
Example:
SEND_COMMAND 5002:1:11,"'?VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY'"
Returns a COMMAND string of the form:
VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY-600
VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY
Sets the amount of seconds the blanking color is displayed before the TMDS lines turn off.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'VIDOUT_SLEEP_DELAY-<time>'"
