in your PC, the monitor can automatically reduce its power consumption
when not in use. This is referred to as Power Save Mode. If the computer
detects input from keyboard, mouse, or other input devices, the monitor
automatically resumes functioning. The following table shows the power

consumption and signaling of this automatic power saving feature:

or more pixels to become fixed in an unchanging state which are hard to see
and do not aect the display quality or usability. For more information on Dell
Monitor Quality and Pixel Policy, see Dell Support site at
