Home Security Touchscreen HSS101
Screen Saver
The Screen Saver setting lets you play one or more widgets or other Home Security
Touchscreen features when the Home Security Touchscreen is not in use. The screen saver
is like a computer screen saver, but the widgets playing are live. This means that if you select
a camera as one of your screen saver widgets, that screen saver (camera) plays live video.
When the screen saver is about to start, a count-down timer displays at the top of the screen
above the time to indicate how much time is left before the screen saver starts. If you select
more than one widget for the screen saver, a similar count-down timer indicates how much
time is left before the next widget starts to play.
Figure 46. Countdown timer
You can interact with the screen savers while they are playing. For example, if you select
Traffic as one of your screen saver widgets, you can touch the screen while the Traffic widget
is playing to display the controls, select a new location, and view the traffic in that location.
When you stop touching the screen, after the specified idle period, the screen saver
continues playing where it left off. For example, if your screen saver list includes photos,
traffic, and cameras (in that order) for 2 minutes each, and you interact with the Traffic widget
while it is playing, the screen saver is suspended. When you stop interacting with the Home
Security Touchscreen, the screen saver starts playing the Traffic widget again for the full
specified period of time (in this example, 2 minutes) and then continues by playing the
Cameras widget next, and so on.
