Sleep external Monitors to save Energy

[fayden]

I am currently using the DisplayLink Manager version 1.9.0 and connect to my MacBook Pro (running Ventura 13..5.1)

I have two external Samsung U28E590 monitors connected and would like to sleep my monitors in the evenings or when my Mac is not in use.

Is there any way of doing so without having to open the MacBook when restarting or "waking up"?
I would be happy if I could sleep the monitors with a Hotkey and restart them the same way. I seem to remember there being some way to use an "activation corner."
Basically, I want to eliminate the necessity of powering down the monitors and have them set on standby at a specific time or when a shortcut is used.
Any suggestions?

Hello, you can try to use hot corners to use any shortcut keys. You can find the option to enable the screens' sleep mode or also wake them up In the link below you will find how to do it https://appleinsider.com/inside/maco...rners-in-macos
