To conserve power and ensure the longevity of the phone screen display, set the display to turn off when it
is not needed (PowerSave). PowerSave differs from EnergyWise. For more information on EnergyWise, see
EnergyWise on the Cisco Unified IP Phone Setup, on page
You can configure settings in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration to turn off the display
at a designated time on some days and all day on other days. For example, you may choose to turn off the
display after business hours on weekdays and all day on Saturdays and Sundays.
To turn on the display any time it is off, the phone user presses Select.
When the display turns on, it remains on until the phone remains idle for a designated length of time, then the
display turns off automatically.
The following table explains the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration fields that control
when the display turns on and off. Configure these fields in the Product Specific Configuration area of the
Phone Configuration window in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration. You access this
window by choosing Device > Phone from Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.
