Operating the Monitor
Power-Saver Feature
When the monitor is in normal operating mode, the Power light is blue and the monitor uses the typical power wattage. For power usage, refer to Appendix B, “Technical Specifications”.
The monitor also supports a power-saver mode that is controlled by the PC. When the monitor is in the reduced power state, the monitor screen is blank, the backlight is off, and the Power light is amber. The monitor uses minimum power. When awakened, a brief warm-up period occurs before the monitor returns to normal operating mode. The energy-saving reduced power state activates if the monitor does not detect either the horizontal sync signal or the vertical sync signal. The power-saver mode must be activated on your PC for this feature to work.
Refer to your PC documentation for instructions on setting energy-saver features (sometimes called power management features).
✎The energy-saver feature works only when the monitor is connected to computers that have energy-saver features.
