service that the phone invokes when the phone has been idle (not in use) for a designated period and no
feature menu is open.
XML services that can be used as idle displays include company logos, product pictures, and stock
quotes.

To conserve power and ensure the longevity of the LCD screen on the phone, you can set the LCD to
turn off when it is not needed.
You can configure settings in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration to turn off the
display at a designated time on some days and all day on other days. For example, you may choose to
turn off the display after business hours on weekdays and all day on Saturdays and Sundays.
When the display is off, the LCD screen is dark and disabled, and the Display button lights. You can take
any of these actions to turn on the display any time it is off:
