Important Notes and Tips
Once a session starts automatically, you cannot edit the settings unless you end the session and return to the Session Auto Start menu.
Update your session settings anytime to match your changing work patterns and needs.
Regular session check-ins as dictated by your company policies will still apply. Stay alert for audible notifications to avoid false alarms.
