PowerSaver
This monitor has a built-in power management system called PowerSaver. This system saves energy by
switching your monitor into a low-power mode when it has not been used for a certain amount of time. The
monitor automatically returns to normal operation when you move the computer's mouse or press a key on
the keyboard. For energy conservation, turn your monitor OFF when it is not needed, or when leaving it
unattended for long periods. The PowerSaver system operates with a VESA DPMS compliant video card
installed in your computer.
Use a software utility installed on your computer to set up this feature.
