Specifies whether to display all on-screen graphics,
including icons and help text, during calls.
Screen Saver Wait
Time
Specifies how long the system remains awake during
periods of inactivity. The default is 3 minutes. If the system
requires users to log in, the screen saver timeout also logs
out the current user.
Setting this option to Off prevents the system from going to
sleep. To prevent image burn-in, specify 3 minutes or less.
Note: The screen saver feature is disabled during the
setup wizard. To prevent image burn-in, complete the setup
wizard promptly.
For the Polycom HDX 4500 system, Dual Monitor Emulation is an internal feature.
The feature does not appear with the Monitor settings and it has no settings you
can change.
