    Hello,

    I have only had this problem about 3 times, but I thought I would see if anyone else has had this problem and found a solution.

    I am using Xenith Pro’s with Dual monitors pushed out via xen.ini. I have the firmware 1.7_122.

    I am having occasional issues with the Xenith Pros not keeping the monitors awake, or not awakening them on bootup. This is usually the second monitor of the two. If I go into the Xenith tool bar and go to monitors and hit test, the other monitor comes on and shows the test screen and then stays on.

    Is there a way to keep the monitors from going to sleep while a user is working and to keep it awake? Same for on boot up?

    All the monitors are Dell monitors.

    Thanks.

    Can you post your xen.ini?

    Can you try adding

    Screensaver=”0″

    to your xen.ini?

    Will do.

    This is pretty sporadic, so I will probably take some time to see if it works.

    I will post again if I run into the issue again.

    Thanks.

    Ok, that doesn’t seem to fix it either. Users will just be working away and a screen will go blank on them. They then have to navigate to that dark screen and hit a key on the keyboard to bring it back to life.

    Could it be the screen itself going blank?

    The screen itself is going blank, it goes into power save mode. It is happening on multiple Xenith Pros so it isn’t a one monitor problem.

    I also heard from my WYSE rep, I removed the quotes from around the Screensaver=”0″ setting, and I am seeing if that works.

    Stay tuned.

    Thanks for the help!

    So did the no quotes solution work? I’ve got the non-pro version of the Xenith doing the same thing. One thing to note, it started doing this after I updated to 1.7 (from 1.5).

    The no quotes did work. It also mattered where you stick it.

    I put it in the file under the networking section.

    This is good information. Thanks.
    Just reviewed your xen.ini and saw that you have
    Dualhead=yes Mainscreen=1 Screensaver=”0″
    in it.
    Screensaver parameter has to be on a separate line!
