8.0 Energy-saving Modes

hen this product is operated, it complies with relevant power-saving measures stipulated by the

Energy Star and VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) standards. When the monitor is left
unused, it can also automatically eliminate unnecessary power consumption. If the user intends to use
this feature, the monitor must be connected to a computer with a power management system that
complies with VESA standards. There are three energy-saving modes that users may choose, as listed
below (at this time, the computer must also be configured for these modes to take effect):

POWER SAVE

* Stand By Mode
The monitor enters the Stand By mode after the line signal is cut off. At this time, power

consumption is less than 2W, the screen will turn dark, and the power indicator turns amber .If
there is any input from the keyboard or mouse, the monitor will re-enter the on mode immediately.

* Suspend
    The monitor enters the Suspend mode after the field signal is cut off. At this time, power
consumption is less than 2W, the screen will turn dark, and the power indicator turns amber . If there is
any input from the keyboard or mouse, the monitor will re-enter the on mode immediately.
* Off Mode
      The monitor enters the Off mode after both the line signal and field signal are cut off. At this time,
power consumption is less than 2W, the screen will turn dark, and the power indicator turns amber . In
case there is any input from the keyboard or mouse, the monitor will re-enter the on mode immediately.

* The user can view the status of the power-saving modes through the LED on front panel.
