I need to set the monitor to sleep and wake at specific times.
I have a computer system that is used for security and its output is connected to an HDMI over Ethernet box which is connected to 4 other monitors. As it is right now the PC is set to have the monitor on 24 hours a day and the PC must be on 24/7 for monitoring and recording the video feeds, however, the other monitors around the office must be turned on and off manually. The problem is that people often forget to turn them off, so I'd like to shedule them to turn off during the evening times when one one is in the office and back on before anyone arrives in the morning. I cannot use sleep or hybernation.
I found a Powershell script which can turn off the monitors and I can schedule that to run in the evenings, however, I cannot find anything to automattically turn them back on without user interaction. The Security PC is locked in the IT room and I'd rather not have people going in there to wake the PC's monitors.
