Notes on power management

If your computer is equipped with power management, the monitor can support this function fully.
Here the monitor does not distinguish between the individual energy-saving modes of the computer
(standby mode, suspend mode and OFF mode), as it is capable of immediately switching into the
mode with the highest energy-saving effect.

Power consumption

to < 3 W

If your computer detects inactivity (no input) it sends an appropriate signal to the monitor to reduce
the power consumption. The power indicator of the monitor changes colour to indicate the status
change.
If there is still no input, power consumption is further reduced (OFF mode).

Once an input is made at the computer the screen contents are redrawn and full power is restored.

The length of the individual stages is determined by the power management system of the
computer. For detailed information on how energy-saving mode operates refer to the Operating
Manual or Technical Manual of your computer.

The service life of your monitor will be extended if the OFF mode is switched to after
30 minutes at the earliest (setting in screen saver or in your computer's BIOS setup).

When the monitor is switched to OFF mode by the power management system a power
consumption of up to 3 W is maintained to feed the circuit for redrawing the screen
contents. To cut off power consumption totally, press the ON/OFF switch on the front of
the monitor.

Changing the monitor settings

With the buttons on the control panel, you can change the monitor settings. Contrast and brightness
are adjusted directly with the corresponding buttons. The other settings are carried out via an
integrated OSD menu (On-Screen Display).

The OSD menu is available in different languages. The English menu names are used in
the following description (default setting). The language can be set in the OSD menu
