# Set the extend YuJa CMS event interval

*Applies to: Pearl-2, Pearl Mini, Pearl Nexus, Pearl Nano.*

A button on the Events page of the Admin panel lets users extend the length of an event that is in progress. By default, the event is extended in 6 minute intervals each time the button is selected. Using the Admin panel, you can set the amount of time the event is extended to 6, 10, or 15 minute intervals. Events cannot be extended beyond the start of the next scheduled event.

**Set the extend YuJa CMS event interval using the Admin panel**

- Log in to the Admin panel as **admin**.

- From the Configuration menu, click **CMS**. The Content management system configuration menu opens.

- Under **Settings**, select the **Extend event** time interval from the drop down list and click **Apply**.

**Device differences**

- **Pearl-2, Pearl Mini:** A button on the touch screen also lets users extend an in-progress event by the same configured interval.

- **Pearl Nano:** Use the control keys on the front screen to extend the in-progress event.

- **Pearl Nexus:** Pearl Nexus has no built-in screen — extend events from the Events page of the Admin panel or from Epiphan Edge.
