Feature Highlights
The OSM ( On Screen Manager ) controls have made the monitor' s Digital
Control System easier to use by providing menus on screen. Pressing the
PROCEED key turns on OSM. You' ll find it easy to navigate through the
menu that appears, and icons show you how the controls work.
IPM ( Intelligent Power Manager ) is an innovative power saving utility that
complies with the EPA' s Energy Star requirements . Energy Star products
use 30 watts or less when in the main power saving mode.
When in the maximum power-down mode, the PlasmaSync 3300
monitor will consume approximately 10% of the total power drawn under
normal operation. This innovation adds up to 70% energy savings, longer
monitor life, environmental protection, reduced emissions, and reduced
air conditioning costs of the work environment.
Monitors follow the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA)
approved DPMS power-down signaling method. VESA' s Display Power
Management Signaling(DPMS) method which is endorsed by the EPA is
the power-down process a system should use to communicate to the
monitor to save power. Power-down functions can only be utilized with
an energy star system or video card which adhere to the VESA DPMS
standard. By using the monitor' s horizontal and vertical SYNC signals, the
monitor can be prompted into the different IPM modes. The following is
the description of the LED indicator for the IPM power saving modes:
Mode LED Indicator Power Saving
On Green None
Standby Yellow Minimum
(Quickest Recovery)
Suspend Orange Moderate
(EPA< 30 Watts, Moderate Recovery)
Off Orange Maximum
(IPM Mode) (Slowest Recovery)
Off No Light No Power Used
(Power Switch, Off) (Fully Off)
