You can enable or disable PowerSaveMode using a BrightAuthor Interactive playlist and attaching a wake or sleep command to a state or an event like a button press. PowerSaveMode commands work over HDMI or HDMI-to-DVI.

If you want to schedule your screen to wake at a certain time, create a playlist with a single image state that contains a logo or blank image, and attach the wake command to that state. In this example, there’s a logo image that displays at startup; the project then times out to an attract loop (i.e. a looping video that links to other states).

When the scheduled presentation begins each day (for example, 8:00AM, Monday through Friday), playback will enter the image state and power on the display.

Using a Time/Clock Event

You can instead use a Time/Clock Event to turn the display on/off at scheduled intervals. The below event, paired with a Display On/Off command, would trigger Monday through Friday at 8:00AM.
