Activation Idle Time

You can specify the amount of idle time that FireBall will wait before activating the screen saver from 1 to 60 minutes.

Warning: Some televisions and plasma monitors are more susceptible to screen burn-in than others, therefore, we recommend using a low activation time (like 1 minute) to reduce the risk of burn-in.

Other Modes

Select either the Normal, or Product Demo. The Normal mode displays the current title or station information while the Product Demonstration mode is intended for retail product demos during idle time.
