Power Saving Function

This monitor meets the px)wer-saving guidelines set by VESA and ENERGY STAR, as well as the more stringent NUTEK. ^
If the monitor is connected to a computer or video graphics
board that is VESA DPMS (Display Power Management
Signcding) compliant, the monitor wUl automatically reduce power consumption in three stages as shown below.
Technical Features
You can set the delay time before the monitor enters the
power saving mode using the OSD. Set the time according to "Setting the Power Saving Delay Time" on page 14.

Note

If no video signal is input to the monitor, the "NO INPUT SIGNAL" message (page 18) appears. After the delay time has passed, the power saving function automaticcilly puts the monitor into the active-off mode and the (1) indicator lights up orange. Once the horizontal and vertical sync signals are detected, the monitor automatically resiunes its normal operation mode.
