POWER SAVING

The monitor will be driven into “Power Saving” mode by the control signal 
from the display controller, as indicated by the amber-color power LED.

The power saving states will be kept until a control signal has been detected 
or the keyboard or mouse is activated. The recovery time from Active OFF 
state back to ON state is around 3 seconds.

DDC

To make your installation easier, the monitor is able to Plug and Play with 
your system if your system also supports DDC protocol. The DDC (Display Data 
Channel) is a communication protocol through which the monitor 
automatically informs the host system about its capabilities, for example, 
supported resolutions and corresponding timing. The monitor supports 
DDC2B standard.
