Energy declaration
When connected to a computer that supports the VESA Display Power Management
Signaling (DPMS) Protocol, the monitor can conserve significant energy by reducing power
consumption during periods of non-use. When your computer goes into the energy saving
mode, the monitor will then enter the Active Off mode (sleep). In the Active Off mode
the Power LED will still show orange.
Use these conventions and the power can be reduced to the following levels:
To “wake” the monitor when it is in Active Off mode, you can:
■ Move the mouse.
■ Press any keyboard key.
■ Press the Input button on the side of the monitor to select a different video source.
To change the period of time the monitor waits before entering these low power states,
access the power management options in the Windows Control Panel.
