2) Select “VESA DPMS” or “EIZO MPMS”.

E

When “VESA DPMS” is selected, the monitor shifts into the power saving mode in 5 seconds after recognizing either STAND-BY, SUSPEND, OR OFF signal. When “EIZO MPMS” is selected, the monitor shifts into the power saving mode in 5 seconds after PC's ScreenSaver blanks the screen.

VESA DPMS Power Saving Method

VESA DPMS utilizes four signals: ON, STANDBY, SUSPEND, and OFF. The monitor detects these signals from the graphics board and executes power saving accordingly, as illustrated below.

What is VESA DPMS?

The acronym VESA stands for “Video Electronics Standards Association,” and DPMS stands for “Display Power Management Signaling.” DPMS is a communication standard that PCs and graphics boards use to implement power savings at the monitor side.

What is EIZO MPMS?

EIZO MPMS, "EIZO Monitor PowerManager Signaling", also enables to execute power saving at the monitor side. EIZO MPMS recognizes the video signals from the PC when the PC is in a power saving mode, and reduces energy consumption of the monitor.

What is Energy Star?

“Energy Star” is a set of power-saving guidelines issued by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The guidelines apply to PC systems and peripherals.
