The eye-care rest cycle adds a break rhythm inside a slot: after N minutes of continuous use the PC locks for M minutes, then unlocks automatically. A common setting is “use 45 / rest 10”.
Setup steps
- 01
Open the slot's advanced settings
Settings → Time Management → select the day row and slot → Edit slot → click Advanced >>.
- 02
Tick “Enable break”
Fill in “use every N minutes” and “rest for M minutes”, e.g. 45 and 10.
- 03
Configure reminder and countdown
On the Time Management page set the pre-lock/rest reminder (default 5 minutes) and the pre-lock countdown (default 30 seconds) so the child is prepared.

Save and apply
Click Apply Now; in the web console click Save and apply to device and wait one heartbeat.
How it differs from a normal lock
- Cycle rest lock: unlocks automatically when the rest duration ends — a protective pause.
- Slot-end / quota-exhausted lock: waits for the next allowed slot, or needs a parent unlock or points redemption.
- The lock screen top message distinguishes “eye-care rest” from a time-slot lock so the child understands why.
