The second line is also required on Titan Mobile and TitanOne to either open or close the additional application window; it should not be used on consoles as they don't work the same way and so may cause unexpected results.

• PanelManager.SetScreenState(“externalDisplay”, 0, System.ExternalDisplay.Enabled) actually enables the display/window
