Take a look at "man set" after section "s", please.

For examples, why don't you type the following command:
% xset s N (this means N seconds)
therefore, if you type like "xset s 1", you can get the black screen in 
1 second.


[i.e.]

% xset s on          ;get screensaver to work
% xset s off         ;get screensaver not to work
% xset s blank       ;get screensaver to darken when it starts
% xset s noblank     ;get screensaver to show X logo on the screen when 
                      it starts
% xset s 10          ;screensaver starts in 10 seconds
% xset s default     ;get screensaver returning to default

HTH,
