Take Control of Your Display: Changing the Screensaver Timeout on Your Polycom VVX 400

Is the screensaver on your Polycom VVX 400 phone appearing too frequently? Or is it leaving on for too long, using too much battery life? Thankfully, changing the screensaver timer is an easy way to take control of your phone's display settings and energy usage. Now let's get started!

Why Adjust the Screensaver Timeout?

There are a few key reasons to customize this setting:

• Energy Saving: A shorter timeout can help conserve battery power when your phone is idle.

• Privacy: If your screen displays sensitive information, a quicker timeout adds a layer of security.

• Personal Preference: You might simply want the screensaver to appear sooner or later based on your usage habits.

Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these easy instructions to change the screensaver timeout on your Polycom VVX 400:

1. Access Settings: From the main screen, press the "Menu" button.

2. Navigate to Display: Select "Settings" and then find "Device Settings".

3. Display Options: Within "Device Settings", choose "Display".

4. Backlight & Screensaver: Select "Backlight & Screensaver Timeout".

5. Choose Your Timeout: A list of timeout options will appear (e.g., 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, etc.). Select the duration that best suits your needs.

6. Save Changes: Press the "Save" soft key to apply the new timeout.

Tips and Considerations

• Find the Balance: A shorter timeout saves energy, but if you're constantly reactivating the screen, it might be more convenient to set a longer duration.

• Default Timeout: The factory default is usually 15 seconds.

• Other Display Settings: While you're in the "Display" menu, explore other options like brightness and theme customization to further personalize your phone.
