[volt-nuts] dark display for 3458

Hi, again...

  Now that I have the keysight connection expert
running my two sick 3458s, I don't need to look
at data on the displays. To keep them from burning
out, I wanted to turn them off.

   I found a workaround of:

DISP 0,'  (16 spaces) .'

This put a period on the bottom of the blank
screen and moves it 16 spaces to the right.....
right off the screen!

So now the display is dark and only shows things
like the 'err' message.

QUESTION - will this kill the 3458 or its display somehow?

Willy
