Solution:
SLAYER introduced a 'Display Off' feature in current firmware versions for SLAYER Steam Series machines. This feature deactivates the display after an adjustable amount of time: 1 to 60 minutes. Machine will appear off while display is idle. However upon activating a volumetric, manual group actuation, or engaging with the encoder knob. The display will illuminate.
Display does not need to be ON to utilize full functionality of a group or programed volumetric.
Allowing the display to idle while the machine is ON will increase OLED pixel longevity.
