# How to Set Screen Brightness and Power with an AI Assistant?

Ask Claude or ChatGPT to dim your digital signage screens, turn them off out of hours, or set a weekly schedule, through the EasySignage MCP server.

## What can the assistant change?

-   **Brightness:** set a screen’s brightness from 1 to 100 now, or on a weekly schedule with up to 3 time slots a day.
-   **Power:** turn a screen on or off now, or set a weekly schedule: on, off, or on and off at set times each day.

These are the same settings as **Brightness** and **Power** in a screen’s **Screen Details**, so you can review them there afterwards.

## What do I need before I start?

-   An EasySignage Premium or Enterprise plan

-   An AI assistant connected to EasySignage with **Full access** to **Screens**. See [How to Connect an AI Assistant to EasySignage](https://easysignage.com/how-to/apps/how-to-connect-an-ai-assistant-to-easysignage/)

-   Players that support the setting:

    -   **Power management** works on LG webOS displays, Windows players, Linux players and rooted Android devices. It isn’t available on web players, Samsung Tizen displays or Android TVs.
    -   See [Brightness Management](https://easysignage.com/help/screens/digital-signage-brightness-management/) for brightness.

## What can I ask?

-   “Dim all screens tagged _lobby_ to 40% from 8pm to 7am every day.”
-   “Turn the screens in the Melbourne group off at 10pm and on at 6am, Monday to Friday, and keep them off at weekends.”
-   “Turn the Reception screen off now.”
-   “Which of my screens support power management?”

## What should I check?

-   **Time zone.** Schedules follow each screen’s own clock. Check the screen’s time zone if a change happens at the wrong time.

-   **Publish.** Ask the assistant to publish to the screens so they receive the schedule. Once received, a screen keeps following it even if it goes offline.

-   **Screens that are off.** A screen that’s turned off can’t show content, so check the power schedule doesn’t overlap a campaign you’ve scheduled.
