Depending on the Software Revision, some devices may have a Schemes tab.
Factory Default Settings
Switch state to User Idle Never
Switch state to System Idle Never
Switch state to Suspen Never
The Schemes tab can be used to control the display backlight and shut the VX6 Off. The mode
timers are cumulative. The System Idle timer begins the countdown after the User Idle timer has
expired and the Suspend timer begins the countdown after the System Idle timer has expired. For
example, if the User Idle timer is set to Never, the power scheme timers never place the device in
User Idle, System Idle or Suspend modes.
For a VX6, the User Idle state turns off the display backlight. There is no System Idle mode so
the VX6 remains in User Idle mode until the Suspend timer expires or a primary even occurs.
Please see “Power Modes” in Chapter 2, “Physical Description and Layout”.
IMPORTANT: There is no Suspend mode on the VX6. If the Suspend timer is enabled, the
VX6 will shut down when the Suspend timer expires.
Figure C-19 Power Properties
The Device Status tab displays the status of power managed devices. Note that since the VX6
does not support power management, all devices show the “high” power level. There are no user
options on this screen.
