Introduction

Introduction to the PlasmaSync 3300

Congratulations on your purchase of NEC' s PlasmaSync 3300

multimedia monitor which includes Microsoft' s Plug and Play

compatibility. Just plug your PlasmaSync 3300 monitor into a Plug and

Play compatible system, and your monitor is automatically ready to run

at it' s optimum performance. Other examples of features that

enhance your multimedia monitor performance are the On-Screen

Manager(OSM TM) controls and the Intelligent Power Manager(IPM TM)

System.

The Intelligent Power Manager(IPM TM) System follows the United States

government' s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines. The

IPM System increases the monitor' s life and saves energy and costs by

powering down when not in use.

Feature Highlights

The OSM (On Screen Manager) controls have made the monitor' s Digital Control System easier to use by providing menus on screen. Pressing the PROCEED key turns on OSM. You' ll find it easy to navigate through the menu that appears, and icons show you how the controls work.

IPM (Intelligent Power Manager) is an innovative power saving utility that complies with the EPA' s Energy Star requirements . Energy Star products use 30 watts or less when in the main power saving mode.

When in the maximum power-down mode, the PlasmaSync 3300 monitor will consume approximately 10% of the total power drawn under normal operation. This innovation adds up to 70% energy savings, longer monitor life, environmental protection, reduced emissions, and reduced air conditioning costs of the work environment.

Monitors follow the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) approved DPMS power-down signaling method. VESA' s Display Power Management Signaling(DPMS) method which is endorsed by the EPA is the power-down process a system should use to communicate to the monitor to save power. Power-down functions can only be utilized with an energy star system or video card which adhere to the VESA DPMS standard. By using the monitor' s horizontal and vertical SYNC signals, the monitor can be prompted into the different IPM modes. The following is the description of the LED indicator for the IPM power saving modes:

Mode	LED Indicator	Power Saving
On	Green	None
Standby	Yellow	Minimum
		(Quickest Recovery)
Suspend	Orange	Moderate
		(EPA< 30 Watts, Moderate Recovery)
Off	Orange	Maximum
(IPM Mode)		(Slowest Recovery)
Off	No Light	No Power Used
(Power Switch, Off)		(Fully Off)
