Sleep Timer Mode

The Sleep Timer mode is an energy-saving feature that enables you to set a time for the monitor to power on and off at the same time every day. This also extends the life of the backlight bulbs in the monitor. The Sleep Timer has five settings:

●Set Current Time

●Set Sleep Time

●Set On Time

●Timer: On/Off

●Sleep Now

To set the timer:

1.Press the Menu button on the monitor front panel to display the OSD Menu.

2.Scroll down and highlight Management.

3.Press the Menu button to select Management.

4.Scroll down and highlight and select Sleep Timer > Set Current Time.

NOTE: You must set the current local time before you reset the time for Sleep Time or On Time. Note that the time is displayed in a 24–hour clock format. For example, 1:15 p.m. is displayed as 13 hours 15 minutes.

A power failure or loss of power to the monitor will cause the timer to reset to 00:00. If this occurs, you will need to reset the sleep timer mode.

5.Press the Menu button once to enter the adjustment mode for hours.
