Flex UC unit and the screen timeout.

James Vaughan and others, yes we have a backlog item to make the timeout configurable, although as Jimmy says the goal is to always get back to the primary MTR UX. Sohail_Tariq
There have been discussions about this being implemented in some of my discussions with the product group and engineering, it is something that might be considered in the future but is not there today as you noted.
Ilya Bukshteynmight be able to comment further, but the design intent here is very clear and this was something that was decided by both Crestron and Microsoft to keep with the spirit of the product and its design.
Although the Crestron pages are an important part of the Flex product line, it is a Microsoft Teams Room product at its core. The design of these systems is to have a consistent user interface on all vendors products and the page flip is something that is a feature unique to the Crestron systems and does bring added value to the Crestron products. But the user walking into the room shouldn't have the experience of possibly seeing different screens that they might not be used to was the experience that the units need to have.
I know both Crestron and Microsoft continue to explore how we can further enhance the experience and I think both have ideas, but your suggestion should be put on uservoice and it can be weighed by the impact on the Microsoft/Crestron customers.
