Screen sleep schedule

There's no need for the screen to blaze all night when the masjid is empty. The On screen tab lets the display sleep between Isha and Fajr and wake itself back up in time.

Screen sleep settings: enable sleep, minutes after Isha, minutes before Fajr
Rest the screen overnight, awake again before Fajr.

Turn on screen sleep, then set:

  • Sleep after Isha iqamah — how long after Isha the screen rests (default 60 minutes).
  • Wake before Fajr adhan — how far ahead of Fajr it comes back (default 30 minutes).

This is gentle on the panel and saves a little electricity, while making sure the clock is always up and accurate before the first worshippers arrive.

Note

Sleep dims the web display itself. Many TVs also have their own on/off timer in their settings — you can combine the two, or rely on whichever is easier for your hardware. See Hardware & monitoring.
