C4Newbie Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 So for some reason mine's stopped working. "Turn on when proximity detected" is still enabled but it doesn't wake up unless I touch the screen now. Anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions? It used to be a cool feature.

chopedogg88 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 That happened to me as well, on the older style 7" touchscreen. I never figured it out (didn't spend much time on it though, I must admit). I just installed a 7" infinity edge touchscreen w/ Camera, and now I'm not even seeing the option for wake on proximity...anybody know why? Is that not an option with the newer models with camera? or am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingzz Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I had the same thing happen about a month ago on my 7" screen also, no longer responds to proximity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, there is no prox sensor on the later models (with or w/o camera) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopedogg88 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 That Sucks. Why the step backwards? That was one of my favorite features. Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Because you were in the minority and many found it useless if not irritating - not me, but it's the feedback I have heard from clients so I suspect so has Control4. Default off would probably have been nice, but possibly there were design issues - I don't design these things, just install them so you'd have to direct that question to C4 for a definitive answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil12011 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I seriously liked the proximity sensor in the older 7 inch panels, so did everyone else that used them, kind of a cool feature to just walk up to it and have it wake up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyknight Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I seriously liked the proximity sensor in the older 7 inch panels, so did everyone else that used them, kind of a cool feature to just walk up to it and have it wake up. Again, I didn't mind them, at least being there. But feedback from clients, including my nr 1 (my wife) was to turn it off - as it turns off the screensaver - in other words the pictures disappear every time they want to take a closer look. That said I'm never happy to see options disappear. Oh and of course everyone the used them liked them ... or they wouldn't use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 That was my issue as well. We *always* do photo screensaver on our screens, so I didn't use prox sensing. RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
