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, move the mouse or press any
keyboard key.
Access the power management options in the Control Panel to change the period of time
after which the monitor enters these low power states.
