Advanced Power Saving M ode
1. Background
The traditional monitors have the function of electricity-saving dormancy. Bu t the interval of
dormancy is difficult to decide. If the interval is long, the purpose of saving electricity can not
be achieved. While if the interval is short, y our computer and LCD monitor will be dormant often.
When the LC D monitor becomes dormant, the back lights w ill be turned off immediately. The
frequent turning-on and turning-off of lights will result in the lightness being uneven and even,
shortening the life of the lights.
2. Our solution to the dilemma – Monitor the Life-Extension function
In view of that, we have designed the function of Monitor Life-Extension. Once you s elect the option of
“Advanced
Power Saving Mode” in the OSD menu, and then you ca n not only save electricity, but extend the life of the
lights.
3. Working principle of the Monitor Life-Extension function
To minimize the impact of frequent turn-on and turn-off of L CD monitor, the Life-Extension function decreases
the electricity supplied to the back-light of LCD monitor gradually , instead of cutting it off right away when the P
C enters sleeping or off mode. Please see the following comparison graphics for details.
* Standard Power Saving Mode (without Monitor Life-Extension function)

* Advanced Power Saving Mode (with Monitor Life-Extension function))

This “Slow-Start-n-Delay-Off” approach minimizes the transit of electricity and temperature caused by the
turning-on and turning-off of the LCD monitor. Therefore, the decay of backlight s o f T FT -LCD ca n be
controlled at the certain level which is much less than it was.
