The Workstation Idle Timer is a feature designed to monitor periods of inactivity on your workstation. It tracks the duration your workstation operates without user inputs, such as keyboard presses or mouse clicks.
Key Features:
Idle Timer Display: Located at the top of your Workstation Dashboard, next to your name and the power button, the Idle Timer shows how long your workstation has been idle.
Manual Control: You can pause the Idle Timer by clicking the pause button, stopping the idle time count. To resume, click the play button.
Default Timeout: Set to 55 minutes, the Idle Timer automatically shuts down the workstation if no input is detected within this period, preventing the use of an additional workstation hour.
💡 Tip: Playback, Render, Export and other background tasks will not prevent your workstation from shutting down. If you have a long render make sure to pause the timer before stepping away.
Customization Options:
To adjust or disable the Idle Timer:
