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 from HIGH
t
MIDDLE t LOW, and the power consumption is reduced.
When you select “AUTO,” the monitor automatically adjusts the
screen brightness according to the brightness of the surroundings
(Automatic brightness adjustment function). For more
information, see “Automatic brightness adjustment function
(light sensor)” on page 19.
NOTE
You can also select the picture mode with MODE (ECO mode) (page 13)
in the PICTURE ADJUST menu.
Press the ECO button repeatedly.
The default setting of the screen brightness is set to “MIDDLE”.
When you press the ECO button once, “MIDDLE” (the default
setting) is displayed, and when you press again, LOW is displayed
and the power consumption is reduced to approximately 50%.
Each time you press the ECO button, the mode changes as
follows.
Each mode appears on the screen and the screen brightness is
reduced according to the mode. The menu automatically
disappears after about 5 seconds.
Automatic brightness adjustment
function (light sensor)
This monitor is provided with a feature to automatically adjust the
screen brightness according to the brightness of the surroundings.
The brightness of the screen is set to the most appropriate level by
setting the ECO mode to AUTO with the ECO button on the front
of the monitor, or in the PICTURE ADJUST menu. The default
setting of the brightness of the screen is set to MIDDLE. Also,
when you set the ECO mode to “AUTO” with the ECO button on
the front of the monitor, the adjustment bar is also displayed. You
can adjust the bar with the
m / M buttons. Screen brightness
changes according to the level you set.
Automatic picture quality
adjustment function
(analog RGB
signal only)
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):
Horizontal frequency: 28–61 kHz (SDM-X53)
28–80 kHz (SDM-X73/X93)
Vertical frequency: 48–75 Hz
Consequently, the first time the monitor receives input signals
that do not match one of the factory preset modes, the monitor
may take a longer time than normal to display the picture on the
screen. This adjustment data is automatically stored in memory so
that next time, the monitor will function in the same way as when
the monitor receives the signals that match one of the factory
preset modes.
If you adjust the phase, pitch, and picture position
manually
For some input signals, the automatic picture quality adjustment
function of this monitor may not completely adjust the picture
position, phase, and pitch. In this case, you can set these
adjustments manually (page 14). If you set these adjustments
manually, they are stored in memory as user modes and
automatically recalled whenever the monitor receives the same
input signals.
