Disable screen when idle

[drr]

I'm developing a recipes application in a sm43-j-r22.

I want to disable or turn off the display if no control is touched in 5 five minutes in order to improve de durability of te device.

Thescreen must be turn on if the user touch the screen again.

Is this possible?

Yes, use SI 9 to adjust the backlight intensity from 0% - 100% and use SB 16 to return the screen backlight to its previous value.

Be careful though, when a user touches a dark screen, any button or control that is there will be activated. I usually load a blank screen when I dim the display to prevent inadvertent activation of some control.

Ok, it's a good idea.
