Energy Saver Feature
This monitor has an energy saver feature that allows the computer
to control monitor power consumption. The energy saver feature
combines hardware and software components and puts the monitor
into a reduced power state when it is not in use.
There are three different modes of operation:
■ Full power mode
■ Suspend mode
■ Sleep mode
Full power mode is the normal mode of operation. The monitor
goes into the suspend mode after a user-selectable period of
keyboard and mouse inactivity. Sleep mode, which results in a
power savings of over 90 percent, activates after a second user-
selectable period of keyboard and mouse inactivity. By selecting
settings in the computer’s Energy Saver utility, you are able to
determine the length of the inactivity period before the monitor goes
into suspend or sleep mode.
The following table describes the monitor energy saver levels
available during the different modes of operation.
