TANDBERG 6000 MXP

6.11VESA Display Power Management

Because of the tremendous amount of energy consumed by monitors when operating, the system will reduce power consumption and extend monitor lifecycle by suspending the (switch off) monitors and projectors when the system goes into sleep/standby.

This applies for all VESA Display Power Management compliant displays that are connected to the VGA/DVI output of the system. The display device need to comply with VESA display Power Management system (DPMS).

Note that this requires a system supplied with a VGA/DVI output.

The VESA DPMS standard consists of four modes, Normal, Standby, Suspend and Off, and applies to all Sync formats (e.g. VGA).

DPMS standard:

	Normal	Standby	Suspend	Off
H-sync	On	Off	On	Off
V-sync	On	On	Off	Off
Power savings	None	Minimal	Substantial	Maximum
Recovery time	None	2-3 seconds	2-3 seconds	8-10 seconds

In Off mode some power may still be drawn in order to power indicator lights etc. EDID contains the information on which mode a specific monitor supports.

TANDBERG supports all four modes. However, in F1 and above, all monitors not listed below are automatically set to Off.

Monitor		DPMS mode
Dell		Off
T8000	- Pioneer	Suspend
T6000	- SAMPO	Suspend
Maestro - Projection Design		Off
T7000	- Sharp	Off
