Energy Saving Design
This monitor complies with the EPA's Energy Star program, which is a program designed to have manufacturers of computer equipment build circuitry into their products to reduce power consumption during time of non-use.
This monitor also goes into its energy saving mode if you exceed the monitor's operating limits, such as the maximum resolution of 1024 x 768 or the frequency refresh rates of 30-70kHz horizontal or 50-160Hz vertical. When this monitor is used with a Green or EPA Energy Star PC, or a PC with a screen blanking software following the VESA Display Power Management Signalling (DPMS) protocol, this monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power consumption during periods of non-use. When the PC goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor will go into a suspended operation state, indicated by the Power LED light changing from a green color to an amber color. After an extended period in the suspended mode, the monitor will then enter a semi-OFF mode to conserve more energy. In the semi-OFF mode or DPMS OFF mode as we call it in our specifications, the Power LED will still show an amber color. When you awaken your PC by hitting a key or moving the mouse, the monitor will also awaken to its normal operating mode, indicated by the green Power LED light. By following these conventions, the power consumption can be reduced to the following levels:
Power Consumption
Mode | Hori. | Verti. | Video | | Power | LED Color |
Sync | Sync | Consumption |
Normal(Max.) | On | On | Normal | ″ | 100W | Green |
Stand-by | Off | On | Off | ″ | 15W | Amber |
Suspend | On | Off | Off | ″ | 15W | Amber |
Off | Off | Off | Off | ″ | 5W | Amber |
