# Power Management

Digital signage power management lets you turn screens on and off, by hand or on a weekly schedule. Turning screens off when nobody is watching saves power.

## Open power management

1.  In the left sidebar, select **Screens**.
2.  On the screen’s row, click the **Screen Details** (gear) icon.
3.  Click **Power**.

The **Power Management** window shows whether the screen is on or off next to its title, for example **(Screen is on)**.

## Turn a screen on or off now

-   To turn the screen off, click **Turn Screen Off**.
-   To turn it back on, open **Power** again and click **Turn Screen On**.

The command is sent to the screen and takes a few seconds to apply.

## Set a weekly power schedule

1.  Select **Enable Power Management**.
2.  Click a day of the week, then choose how the screen behaves that day:
    -   **Manual Operation**: the screen stays as it is. You turn it on and off yourself.
    -   **Always on**: the screen stays on all day.
    -   **Always off**: the screen stays off all day.
    -   **Schedule**: the screen turns on and off at the times you set.
3.  For **Schedule**, set **Turn on at** and **Turn off at**. Click **Add Schedule** to add another time slot that day, up to 3.
4.  To copy a day’s settings to the days after it, click **Apply to the Rest of the Week**.
5.  Repeat for the other days, then click **Save**.
