Using Auto-Sleep Mode
The monitor supports an OSD (on-screen display) menu option called Auto-Sleep Mode that allows you to
enable or disable a reduced power state for the monitor. When Auto-Sleep Mode is enabled (enabled by
default), the monitor will enter a reduced power state when the host computer signals low power mode
(absence of either horizontal or vertical sync signal).
Upon entering this reduced power state (sleep mode), the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight is turned
o, and the power LED indicator turns amber. The monitor draws 0.3 W of power when in this reduced power
state. The monitor will wake from sleep mode when the host device sends an active signal to the monitor (for
example, if you activate the mouse or keyboard).
You can disable Auto-Sleep Mode in the OSD. Press the Menu button to open the OSD, and then select Power
Control, select Auto-Sleep Mode, and then select O.
