Press to select

“Power save”

• Power save:

When this function is turned On, luminous level of the plasma display is suppressed, so
power consumption is reduced.

• Standby save:

When this function is turned On, power consumption of the microcomputer is reduced during
power supply standby (see page 10, 11, 12), so standby power of the set is reduced.

• Power management: The unit power supply is turned On or Off depending on whether or not there is a signal

during PC input mode.
This function is enabled when it is turned On. (Only during input from PC (MiniD-sub) terminal)

• Auto power off:

Equipment power supply is turned Off when there is no signal.
When this is set to On, the power supply of the unit goes Off 10 minutes after the input
signals stop.
This function is effective for input signals except input from PC (Mini D-sub) terminal.
