Does the DJI Mic Mini support power saving and automatic shutdown after a period of inactivity?

The DJI Mic Mini transmitter supports automatic power saving, which works only when the device is turned on. Transmitter automatically enters power-saving mode when it does not detect signal from receiver. When the signal is detected again, the transmitter will wake up and reconnect to the receiver.

DJI Mic Mini supports automatic shutdown after a period of inactivity, which must be configured in advance for both the receiver and transmitters using the DJI Mimo app. Auto shutdown time is set to 15 minutes. The logic behind the operation is as follows:

1. When automatic shutdown is enabled for the receiver and transmitters: if no signal is detected, the transmitter will go into power-saving mode without shutting down, and the receiver will remain on. After 15 minutes, both devices will automatically turn off.
2. When automatic shutdown is enabled for the receiver and disabled for the transmitters: if no signal is detected, the transmitters will go into power-saving mode without shutting down, and the receiver will remain on. After 15 minutes, the receiver will automatically turn off while the transmitters remain in power-saving mode without shutting down.
3. When automatic shutdown is enabled for transmitters and disabled for the receiver: if no signal is detected, the transmitter will go into power-saving mode without shutting down, and the receiver will be on. After 15 minutes, the transmitter will automatically turn off while the receiver remains on.
4. When automatic shutdown is disabled for the receiver and transmitters: only the transmitters will go into power-saving mode when they do not detect a signal, and none of the devices will turn off automatically.
