Technical Features

Power saving function (user sensor/power saving mode)

This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set byENERGYVSA, STAR, and NUTEK. If the monitor is connected to a computer

or video graphics board that is DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling) compliant, the monitor will automatically enter the p saving mode. It automatically enters the low power consumption mode when the user sensor detects the absence of a user.

If the user sensor does not seem to function properlyAre you within the user detection area?

The user sensor, as shown below, detects the presence/absence of a user–the center of the body– up to a distance of approximately

70 cm and at an angle of 30 degrees horizontal/vertical from the sensor phototransmitter.
