Disable 'PRESS <ENTER> TO EXIT THE INSTALLER:' message in Console mode

Can we somehow disable message "PRESS <ENTER> TO EXIT THE INSTALLER:" in Console installer mode to let it finish atomatically?

In  Console mode installation, panels in post-install phase are designed to accept
user action , whether to continue or exit.

As a workaround  :
If it is a simple installer with only Install complete panels in
the post-install phase,

To disable the status message & the "PRESS <ENTER> TO EXIT THE INSTALLER:"
message in Console installer mode & let it finish automatically,
Remove the Install Complete Panel found in Post-install sequence.

InstallAnywhere Designer->Sequence->Post-Install->Action Group: Console actions->
Select panel "Console : Install Complete : Installation Complete" -> Remove

Understood.

In this box there was also some message shown to user.
If I replace 'Install Complete' action with 'Important note' or 'Display message', would it also need user press something on keyboard or just show message and go to next step?

Yes, it will also require user action.

In Console mode, all panels in pre/post-install sequence require user action to proceed.
Important Note & Display message panels will also require user action.
This is as per design in console mode installation.
