NOTE: The power saving percentages are based on a pre-test of multiple units. Actual power reductions and screen results may vary from unit to unit.

Adjusting the power saving percentages does not affect power reserved for the USB ports.

Auto-Sleep Mode

These displays support an OSD (On-Screen Display) option called Auto-Sleep Mode, that allows you to enable or disable a reduced power state for the display. When Auto-Sleep Mode is enabled (enabled by default), the monitor will enter a reduced power state when the host PC signals low power mode (absence of either horizontal or vertical sync signal).

Upon entering this reduced power state sleep mode, the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight is turned off and the power LED indicator turns amber. The monitor draws less than 0.5W of power when in this reduced power mode. The monitor will wake from the sleep mode when the host PC sends an active signal to the monitor (for example, if the user activates the mouse or keyboard).

Sleep Timer

The Sleep Timer OSD (On-Screen Display) option is an energy-saving feature that enables you to set a time for the monitor to enter and exit a reduced power state (Sleep Mode) at the programmable times each day. This can help you save energy and can potentially extend the life of the display.

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 OK 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 set 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.

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

6.Press the - (Minus) or + (Plus) button to adjust the hour.

7.Press the OK button again to enter the time for minutes.
