LCD no longer going to sleep.

I reloaded my RA Plus controller tonight to test the latest public build and everything went well. I was testing some general changes to the code and now the LCD screen is no longer going to sleep like it was before. It stays on forever. I uninstalled and reinstalled the RA arduino IDE and reloaded the wizard sketch from a fresh IDE install and the LCD is still staying on so the time. Halp.

Have you changed internal memory values?
Can you post your code?

What is the timeout period for the screen? I just got out of bed to look at it and it was off but I haven't touched it in and hour. Could have sworn earlier when it was working that it turned off about about 30 seconds... I can give you the code tomorrow bit its bare bones arduino RA Wizard code with zero modifications.

OK, tried it again and i think it is working. Weird because i swore that it was sleeping after about 30 seconds before. Ill keep an eye on it and let you know if it acts weird. Thanks rimai!
