Power-Saving Mode
By default, Polycom phones are set to enter power-saving mode and turn off the screen after being idle
for a certain period of time to conserve energy.
You can determine the period of time that the phone is idle before the screen turns off, and you can set
different idle timeouts for office hours and off hours, such as evenings and weekends. When power-
saving mode is activated, the phone exits power-saving mode if an event occurs—for example, if there is
an incoming call or message. If a screen saver is enabled, power-saving mode still occurs.
You can update the following power-saving settings:
• Office Hours—When you start work and how long you're in the office each day.
• Timeouts—The period of time the phone should be idle before the screen turns off.
Change Your Office Hours for Power-Saving Mode
When you update your office hours, you specify when you start and how long you work each day. After
your work hours, the phone is idle and goes into power-saving mode.
Procedure
1. Navigate to Settings > Basic.
On VVX 1500 phones, navigate to Menu > Settings > Basic.
2. Select Power Saving > Office Hours and select Start Hour.
3. Select a day of the week, and using the 24-hour clock, enter a start time from 0 to 23.
