Omnicell AWS Designated time out default

Hello,

Wanted to query the group. For those who use Omnicell's AWS units in their periop areas, what is the designated time that you have before providers "time out" and the system logs them out? Basically, how long do you allow the AWS to go untouched before it logs the provider out? We experienced serious push back from our providers with the recommended 5 mins from Omnicell and we understand that. But we think the time they asked for is a bit unreasonable and has led to other issues when they remain logged in for so long.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
