External LCD display Standby

[Courage2000]

Hello!
I have a RPI 3b+ computer with Buster and an external touchscreen.

I want to be able to put that LCD in standby mode, but to be able to wake up on touch.
Now I use the blanking method via xscreenaver, but in this case, the LCD is not really closed, is blank - I can see the hallo.

I want the display part to be closed.

It's possible and how?

The display is connected via a ribbon cable, not HDMI.

Thank you

if it's off there is no touch.
can you touch the screen on your phone to wake it up ?

Actually, it seems to work If I run manually those commands. The display is OFF, not only blanked.

Code: Select all

export DISPLAY=:0
xset dpms force off

If I put the same lines inside this file, it does not work

Code: Select all

sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

Code: Select all

xset dpms force off
xset s 120

The problem was fixed via xscreensaver settings!

Edit autorestart file

Code: Select all

sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

add this to the end o the file an reboot

@xset dpms

Code: Select all

sudo reboot[/b]

All working now. After 2 minutes the LCD is OFF.
I waited 10 minutes and with a touch, the screen wake up immediately.
