How To Check Windows XP has gone into Blank / Sleep Mode using LabView 8.5?

[racdradzi]

Hi,

I was conducting a test program to check the accelerometer function on a unit.

The accelerometer will turn the display of the unit into blank mode when the unit is facing downward.

The display will be turn back on once the display is facing upward / front again.

I would like to know is there any possible way to check is it the system of the unit has gone into Blank/Sleep Mode or not using LabVIEW 8.5.

Hi racdradzi,

 Instead of turning the display on..you can make make your Vi front panel to maximise and minimise according to your accelerometer data...

Thanks and regards,

Your question isn't all that clear. You're referring to the "display" of the "system of the unit". But your question title is related to checking if XP has gone to sleep. srikrishnaNF's response seems to be related to the computer that's running the test software. If you have a display on the "widget" that you're testing then why are you asking us how to enable/disable the display of the unit? Do you have documentation on this unit, and how to do this?
