Enable the Power Saving Feature
CX5500 systems support a power-saving feature, which is disabled by default. This feature has a number
of options you can configure, as listed in the table Power Saving. You can turn on the phone’s power-
saving feature during non-working hours and working hours. If you want to turn on power-saving during
non-working hours, you can configure the power-saving feature around your work schedule. Or, if you
want to turn on the power-saving feature while at work, you can configure the sensitivity of the phone’s
motion detection system and an idle time after which the phone enters the power-saving mode.
