Technical Features

Power saving function

This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA, ENERGY 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 reduce power consumption as shown below.

*When your computer enters the “active off” mode, the input signal is cut and “No input signal” appears on the screen. After 20 seconds, the monitor enters the power saving mode.

**“Deep sleep” is a power saving mode defined by the Environmental Protection Agency.

Reducing the power consumption

(ECO mode)

If you press the ECO button on the front of the monitor, the backlight level and the power consumption are reduced.

Press the ECO button.

,ECO mode: On

The “ECO mode: On” menu appears on the screen and the backlight level is reduced. The menu automatically disappears after about 5 seconds.

To cancel the ECO mode

Press the ECO button again.

,ECO mode: Off

The “ECO mode: Off” menu appears on the screen and normal backlight level is set. The menu automatically disappears after about 5 seconds.

Automatic picture quality adjustment function (analog RGB

signal only)

When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically adjusts the picture’s position and sharpness (phase/pitch), and ensures that a clear picture appears on the screen.

The factory preset mode

When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically matches the signal to one of the factory preset modes stored in the monitor’s memory to provide a high quality picture at the center of the screen. If the input signal matches the factory preset mode, the picture appears on the screen automatically with the appropriate default adjustments.

If input signals do not match one of the factory preset modes

When the monitor receives an input signal that does not match one of the factory preset modes, the automatic picture quality adjustment function of this monitor is activated to ensure that a clear picture always appears on the screen (within the following monitor frequency ranges):

Horizontal frequency: 28–92 kHz

Vertical frequency: 48–85 Hz

Consequently, the first time the monitor receives input signals that do not match one of the factory preset modes, the monitor may take a longer time than normal to display the picture on the screen. This adjustment data is automatically stored in memory so that next time, the monitor will function in the same way as when the monitor receives the signals that match one of the factory preset modes.

If you adjust the phase, pitch, and picture position manually

For some input signals, the automatic picture quality adjustment function of this monitor may not completely adjust the picture position, phase, and pitch. In this case, you can set these adjustments manually (page 15). If you set these adjustments manually, they are stored in memory as user modes and automatically recalled whenever the monitor receives the same input signals.
