Motion Sensor for Power Savings 

EIZO’s new EcoView Sense feature unites conve-
nience with savings by ensuring that these monitors 
automatically conserve power when they are not in 
use. EcoView Sense is an integrated motion sensor 
that prompts the monitor to switch to power save 
mode when it does not detect the user for 40 sec-
onds, and then resume normal operation when the 
user returns. To accurately enter and stay in power 
save mode while the user is away from the monitor, 
EcoView Sense also differentiates between a still 
object like an empty chair and the movement caused 
by general office activity. 

Optimized Brightness with Auto EcoView

A built-in Auto EcoView sensor measures ambient 
light and optimizes the screen’s brightness to ideal 
levels in both brightly and dimly lit rooms. This 
results in improved visual ergonomics and reduced 
power consumption by up to 40% compared to when 
the sensor is turned off.

Zero Watts When Turned Off

When the power save mode and off timer are set, 
these monitors consume less than 0.7 watts. When 
turned off via the main power switch, they consume 
no electricity at all. 

Confirm Power Savings with EcoView Index 

An EcoView Index displays the level of power savings 
in correlation with the monitor’s brightness to encour-
age environmental consciousness while working. 

EyeCare Manager 

EIZO’s EyeCare Manager prompts workers to take 
scheduled breaks to avoid eye fatigue caused by pro-
longed monitor use. EyeCare also totals and displays 
on-screen the monitor’s usage hours for each day and 
month to promote worker appreciation of improved 
work habits. 

First TCO Displays 5.0 Certified Monitors 

These are among the world’s first TCO Displays 
5.0 certified monitors. This certification addresses 
ergonomics, emissions, and ecology with new cri-
teria for product energy efficiency consistent with 
Energy Star 4.0 requirements, as well as enhanced 
monitor and packaging recyclability. These monitors 
also received the Green Electronics Council and US 
EPA consumer electronics environmental assessment 
program’s highest rating: EPEAT Gold. 

 

Product Life Cycle Ecology

These monitors debut an innovative compact design 
that reduces the number of internal components, 
making them thinner and lighter than previous 
FlexScan 20" and 24" widescreen models. This 
allows the monitors to be shipped in smaller con-
tainers which use between 80% to 100% recycled 
material. These considerations made during product 
development, in tandem with the monitors’ EcoView 

These monitor’s new compact cabinet design is thinner and lighter 

than that of previous FlexScan widescreen models.

EcoView Sense automatically signals the screen to activate 

and stay on, or switch to power save mode by detecting 

whether the user is present or not.

Compared to a previ-

ous FlexScan 24" 

widescreen monitor, the 

FlexScan EV2303W’s 

slimmed-down cabinet 

design cuts the use and 

weight of sheet metal 

components, shown 

here, by up to 90%. 

Original EIZO-developed 
(patent pending) algorithms 

allow EcoView Sense’s automatic 
detection function to differenti-
ate between animate and inani-
mate objects as well as people 
just passing by. The sensor’s 
highly accurate position tracking has been achieved 
by adopting a special lens that suppresses diffused 
reflections of infrared rays and through factory-per-
formed sensor adjustment on each monitor.
