Switching the monitor on/off

The ON/OFF switch (2) is used for switching the monitor on and off.

The power indicator (1) glows green when the monitor and system unit are switched on. The power indicator glows green and flashes when the monitor does not receive any video signal or is in the energy-saving mode. The power indicator goes off when the monitor is switched off.

When you switch on the PC system, you must proceed in the following order:

ÊFirst switch the LCD monitor on with the ON/OFF switch (2).

ÊThen switch on the system unit.

i	If your PC has a power management function (energy-saving mode), you should read the
	"Notes on power management" of the monitor in this chapter.

Notes on power management

If your PC is equipped with power management, the monitor can support this function fully. The monitor has a four-stage power management system.

Stage	ON	Standby mode	Suspend mode	OFF mode
Power indicator	glows green	flashes green (1 s)	flashes green (1 s)	flashes green (1 s)
Function	Monitor	Monitor	Monitor	Monitor
	operating	is dark	is dark	is dark
	normally
Power	normal	reduced	reduced	reduced
consumption	< 36 W	to < 5 W	to < 5 W	to < 5 W

If your PC detects inactivity (no input) it sends an appropriate signal to the monitor to reduce the power consumption (energy-saving mode). The power indicator of the monitor changes colour to indicate the status change.

Once an input is made at the PC the screen contents are redrawn and full power is restored.

For detailed information on how energy-saving mode operates refer to the Operating Manual or Technical Manual of your PC.

When the monitor is switched to the energy-saving mode by the power management

i system a power consumption of up to 5 W is maintained to feed the circuit for redrawing the screen contents.

To completely switch off the power consumption, switch off the system unit or pull the plug of the monitor power cable out of the monitor socket of the system unit.
