Hello-
I am working on getting my configuration completed on my arcade cabinet. I have Win 10 with a WG D9200 monitor in the cabinet. I am using AttractMode for front end. I have working screensaver in attract mode that will play random videos after 10 minutes. There is an option to blank the screen after X minutes, but that still leaves the gun on and the monitor still "glows" just black. I used power settings in Windows to turn off the video after 60 minutes which works but then the monitor shows "No Signal" box on it in different colors. I don't want to get that burned into the screen. Is there a way for the WG D9200 to really go into power save mode when there is no signal so that the monitor turns off? What is your recommendation for this setup? I hate to have to power up the arcade cabinet every time I want to use it, but i also don't want to burn out my monitor leaving it on 24/7.
I currently have a relay setup in the cabinet to only turn on the monitor power when it senses power on one of the computer's power outputs (hard disk power cable), and I am thinking something like this but only sensing VGA output on cable would work, but I am not sure if that is doable or easily done?
Thanks!
