The General Tab

The General tab contains the following item:

While Nikon Capture Camera Control is running, keep camera awake

Choose how long the exposure meters remain on when the camera is operated on battery power. This setting only takes effect when the camera is connected and powered on with Nikon Capture 4 Camera Control running, and takes precedence over the auto meter off option cho- sen using camera Custom Settings. D2-series, D200, D100, D70s, D70, and D50 cameras will stay awake indefinitely, regardless of the setting chosen here.

for 15 minutes (D1-series only): The exposure meters turn off automatically if no operations are performed for 15 minutes.

Always: The exposure meters remain on indefinitely. Note that this will increase the drain on the battery.

When powered by an AC adapter (available separately), the camera stays awake indefinitely, regardless of the setting chosen.
