Note
•
The power saving level (Power Reduction, CO
2
Reduction, and Eco Performance Level) can be checked on the
“EcoView Settings” menu. The more indicators that light up representing the Eco Performance Level, the higher
the power saving level attained.
- Power Reduction: the reduction in the backlight’s power consumption as a result of the adjusted brightness
value.
- CO
2
Reduction: converted from the “Power Reduction” value, this is an estimate of the quantity of CO
2
emissions reduced when using the monitor for 1 hour.
•
The numeric value is a result of calculation based on a default setting (0.000555t-CO2/kWh) determined by a
Japanese ministerial ordinance (2006, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Ministry of Environment, civil
code article 3) and may differ depending on country and year.
Function
Description
Auto EcoView
The ambient light sensor on the front of the monitor detects the
ambient brightness to automatically adjust the screen brightness
to a comfortable level using the Auto EcoView function. The power
consumption of the backlight can be curtailed by adjusting the
brightness to an appropriate level.
This function can also mitigate eye strain and tiredness caused by a
screen that is too bright or too dark.
Use the “Advanced Settings” to set the automatic adjustment range to
suit the monitor’s usage environment or personal preference.
Setting Range: On, Off
Note
•
Be careful not to block the ambient light sensor on the lower side
of the monitor when using the Auto EcoView function.
•
Even when the Auto EcoView setting is “On”, the
operation
switch on the front of the monitor or color adjustment can be
used to change the “Brightness” to suit your personal preference.
Moreover, the manner in which the Auto EcoView function changes
brightness also differs according to the changed value.
