for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
NOTICE
1. The changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
2. Shielded interface cables and AC power cord, if any, must be used in
order to comply with the emission limits.
3. The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference
caused by unauthorized modification to this equipment. It is the

PRECAUTIONS
z Do not use the monitor near water, e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen
sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.
z Do not place the monitor on an unstable cart, stand, or table. If the
monitor falls, it can injure a person and cause serious damage to the
appliance. Use only a cart or stand recommended by the manufacturer or
sold with the monitor. If you mount the monitor on a wall or shelf, use a
mounting kit approved by the manufacturer and follow the kit instructions.
z Slots and openings in the back and bottom of the cabinet are provided for
ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the monitor and to protect it
from overheating, be sure these openings are not blocked or covered. Do
not place the monitor on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface. Do not place
the monitor near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not place the
monitor in a bookcase or cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.
z The monitor should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to
your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
z The monitor is equipped with a three-pronged grounded plug, a plug with
a third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit only into a grounded power outlet
as a safety feature. If your outlet does not accommodate the three-wire
plug, have an electrician install the correct outlet, or use an adapter to
ground the appliance safely. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
grounded plug.
z Unplug the unit during a lightning storm or when it will not be used for long
periods of time. This will protect the monitor from damage due to power
surges.
z Do not overload power strips and extension cords. Overloading can result
in fire or electric shock.
z Never push any object into the slot on the monitor cabinet. It could short
circuit parts causing a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquids on the
monitor.
z Do not attempt to service the monitor yourself; opening or removing
covers can expose you to dangerous voltages and other hazards. Please
refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
z To ensure satisfactory operation, use the monitor only with UL listed
computers which have appropriate configured receptacles marked
between 100 - 240V AC, Min. 2.5A.
z Attention: Disconnect the power cord to stop the power supply to the
monitor.
z The wall socket shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily
accessible.

automatically reduces unnecessary power consumption of the monitor when
your computer is not in use.
To use the feature, the monitor needs to be connected to a VESA DPMS
computer. There are three power management modes available, these are
described below. The required settings, including the timer setting, should be
made by the computer.
E
NERGY STAR and VESA DPMS when activated, it
•••• Stand-by Mode
When the H-sync signal from the computer is off, the monitor enters into
Stand-by Mode which reduces the power consumption to less than 15W.
The screen becomes dark, and the power indicator turns to orange. From
Stand-by Mode, the screen reappears instantaneously when the keyboard
or the mouse is touched again.
•••• Suspend Mode
When the V-sync signal from the computer is off, the monitor enters into
Suspend Mode which reduces the power consumption to less than 15W.
The screen becomes dark, and the power indicator turns to orange. From
Suspend Mode, the screen reappears instantaneously when the keyboard
or the mouse is touched again.
•••• Active-off Mode
When both the H and V sync signals from the computer are off, the
monitor enters into Active-off Mode which reduces the power consumption
to less than 5W. The screen becomes dark, and the power indicator turns
to orange. From Active-off Mode, the screen reappears instantaneously
when the keyboard or the mouse is touched again.
•
The power-saving mode can be indicated by the light-emitting diode (LED)
on the front panel:
The monitor has a power saving function that conforms to the VESA
DPMS standard. This feature will only work if your PC is a green PC. This
feature is similar to a screen saver, except that your monitor will turn it off
instead of activating the screen saver.
To activate this feature in Windows

1. Right click on the desktop and choose Properties.
2. Click on the tab that says Screen Saver. If your system supports Green
PC, there will be a section entitled “Energy Saving Features of Monitor.”
If there isn’t a section like that, then your PC does not support Green
Monitor. The monitor will behave just like a normal monitor, so you will
have to turn it off manually to save energy.
3. In the “Energy Saving Features of Monitor” sections are two boxes,
Standby and Shut off. To activate either one, click the box next to each
one.

PLUG AND PLAY
Plug & Play DDC1/2B Feature
This monitor is equipped with VESA DDC1/2B capabilities according to the
VESA DDC STANDARD. It allows the monitor to inform the host system of its
identity and, depending on the level of DDC used, communicate additional
information about its display capabilities. The communication channel is
defined in two levels, DDC1 and DDC2B.
The DDC1 is a unidirectional data channel from the display to the host that
continuously transmits EDID information. The DDC2B is a bidirectional data
channel based on the I²C protocol. The host can request EDID information
over the DDC2B channel.
B/I Mode
In no signal from PC input condition, the AC power source of monitor from off
to on, monitor OSD message will show “no signal input or cable disconnect”.
Around 3s later, the monitor will come into B/I mode, a change color Pattern
appears. If the signal from PC inputs, the monitor will auto into normal
working status.
The B/I mode is set up to give a test signal to the monitor for pre-testing. It is
a normal phenomenon.

THIS MONITOR WILL APPEAR TO BE NON-FUNCTIONAL IF THERE IS
NO VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL. IN ORDER FOR THIS MONITOR TO OPERATE
PROPERLY, THERE MUST BE A VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL.
This monitor meets the Power Management standards as set by the Video
Electronics Standards Association (VESA) and/or the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and The Swedish Confederation
Employees ( NUTEK ). This feature is designed to conserve electrical energy
by reducing power consumption when there is no video input signal present.
When there is no video input signal this monitor, following a time-out period,
will automatically switch to an OFF mode. This reduces the monitor's internal
power supply consumption. After the video input signal is restored, full power
is restored and the display is automatically redrawn. The appearance is
similar to a "Screen Saver" feature except the display is completely off. The
display is restored by pressing a key on the keyboard, or clicking the mouse.
USING THE RIGHT POWER CORD :
The accessory power cord for the Northern American region is the wallet plug
with NEMA 5-15 style and is UL listed and CSA labeled. The voltage rating for
the power cord shall be 125 volts AC.
Supplied with units intended for connection to power outlet of personal
computer: Please use a cord set consisting of a minimum No. 18 AWG, type
SJT or SVT three conductors flexible cord. One end terminates with a
grounding type attachment plug, rated 10A, 250V, CEE-22 male configuration.
The other end terminates with a molded-on type connector body, rated 10A,
250V, having standard CEE-22
female configuration.
