From SDU

Overview

This article provides instructions for disabling the second message that is generated when a timeout occurs. After selecting OK, to the first alert message, a second message appears.

or

Timeout reset - your session will continue until logout or %1 more minutes of inactivity

Many users started complaining that the second message is unnecessary.

Procedures

Step 1. Edit sitemods.js

Via the Web Screen Painter append the following code in the end of sitemods.js

In the below code, we are basically commenting the second alert message that's displayed during session timeout.

function timeoutResetResponse(success)
{
  if ( success ) {
    setTimeoutWarning(0);
    //alertmsg(845, propTimeout); // Timeout reset...%1 minutes of inactivity
  }
  else {
    //alertmsg(844); // Sorry, your session has already timed out
    window.location.href = cfgCgi;
  }
}
