Hi, Is it possible to either disable the Touch Bar going to sleep or lengthen the time it stays awake?

{My my Touch Bar goes to sleep there is a set of white boxes that flat on the right hand side. I believe it is hardware issue, if my research is accurate. I was looking for some way to midigate the issue until I can get to the repair shop.}

Thank-you!
