Using the Energy Saver Feature
When the monitor is in its normal operating mode, the
monitor uses less than 100 watts of power and the Power
light is green.
The monitor also supports a reduced power state. The
reduced power state will be entered into if the monitor
detects the absence of either the horizontal sync signal
and/or the vertical sync signal. Upon detecting the absence
of these signals, the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight
is turned off, and the Power light is turned amber. When the
monitor is in the reduced power state, the monitor will utilize
less than 3 watts of power. There is a brief warm-up period
before the monitor will return to its normal operating mode.
Refer to your computer manual for instructions on setting
energy saver features (sometimes called power management
features).
✎
The above energy saver feature only works when connected
to computers that have energy saver features.
By selecting settings in the monitor’s Energy Saver utility, you
can also program the monitor to enter into the reduced
power state at a predetermined time. When the monitor’s
Energy Saver utility causes the monitor to enter the reduced
power state, the Power light blinks amber.
