Enabling EnergyWise on the Cisco Unified IP Phone
Enable Audible Alert When enabled, instructs the phone to play an audible alert starting at 10 minutes before the
time specified in the Phone Off Time field.
The audible alert uses the phone ringtone, which briefly plays at specific times during the
10-minute alerting period. The alerting ringtone plays at the user’s designated volume
level. The audible alert schedule is:
• 10 minutes before power down, play the ringtone four times
• 7 minutes before power down, play the ringtone four times
• 4 minutes before power down, play the ringtone four times
• 30 seconds before power down, play the ringtone 15 times or until the phone powers
down
This check box applies only if the Enable Power Save Plus list box has one or more days
selected.
EnergyWise Domain The EnergyWise domain that the phone is in. The maximum length is 127 characters.
EnergyWise Secret The security secret password that is used to communicate with the endpoints in the
Energywise domain.
The maximum length is 127 characters.
Allow EnergyWise Overrides This check box determines whether you will allow the EnergyWise domain controller
policy to send power-level updates to the phones. The following conditions apply:
1. If the phone is in Power Save or at full power and the level is set to any standby level,
the phone will go to Power Save when idle and remain there until the next Unified CM
scheduled power-level change or user interaction.
2. If the phone is in Power Save or at full power and the level is set to any nonoperational
level, the phone will power down when idle and remain powered down until the switch
reapplies power or the user wakes the phone.
For example, assume the Phone Off Time is set to 22:00 (10:00 p.m.), the value in the
Phone On Time field is 06:00 (6:00 a.m.), and Enable Power Save Plus has one or more
days selected.
• If EnergyWise directs the phone to turn off at 20:00 (8:00 p.m.), that directive will
remain in effect (assuming no phone user intervention occurs) until the configured
Phone On Time at 6:00 a.m.
• At 6 a.m., the phone will turn on and resume receiving its power-level changes from
the settings in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration.
• To change the power level on the phone again, EnergyWise must reissue a new 
power- level change command.
Note To disable Power Save Plus, you must uncheck the Allow EnergyWise Overrides
check box. Leaving the Allow EnergyWise Overrides checked with no days
selected in the Enable Power Save Plus field does not disable Power Save Plus.
