4.Power SensorTM

4.Power Sensor™

PowerSensor is a unique environmentally friendly technology from Philips which enables user to save up to 80% of power consumption. In line with Philip’s Sense and Simplicity drive, this user friendly technology works for you right out of the box without any hardware or software installation, and

without any user intervention in the default mode.

How does it work?

PowerSensor works on principle of transmission and reception of harmless “infrared” signals in order to detect user-presence.

When the user is in front of the monitor the monitor operates normally, at the predetermined settings that the user has set- i.e. Brightness, contrast, color, etc.

Assuming that the monitor was set to 100% of brightness for example, when the user leaves his seat and is no longer in front of the monitor, the monitor automatically reduces the power consumption up to 80%.

Setting

Default settings

At its default setting, (Setting 3), PowerSensor is designed to detect the presence of the user located between 30 and 100 cm (12 and 40 inches) from the display and within five degrees left or right of the monitor.
