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 5 seconds,
the monitor enters the power saving mode.
** “deep sleep” is the 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
repeatedly, you can select the screen brightness.
Each mode appears on the screen and the screen brightness is
reduced according to the mode. The menu automatically
disappears after about 5 seconds.
Screen brightness and power consumption are reduced as the
mode changes from HIGH to MIDDLE to LOW.
The default setting of the screen brightness is set to “USER”.
If you select “USER”, you can adjust the backlight level by
pressing the M/m buttons, the same as when you select
BACKLIGHT using the menu.
NOTE
Only while the ECO mode is set to “USER”, are the BACKLIGHT,
CONTRAST, and BRIGHTNESS items of the menu available (page 11).
Automatic picture quality
adjustment function
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):
