Checkpoint has two options: 

1: during the simulation, you can set every N minutes

2: at the end of the simulation. 

Depending on your goal, you can choose one of them or even both. THe simulation will create continuition files that can be used by resume. 

To resume the simulation WHEN you reduce the autoshutoff min, you can either clieck "resume" in GUI, or using script https://optics.ansys.com/hc/en-us/articles/360036896474-resume-Script-command
