Plug & Play DDC1/2B Feature
This monitor is equipped with VESA DDC1/2B capabilities
according to the VESA DDC STANDARD. It allows the monitor to
inform the host system of its identity and, depending on the level
of DDC used, communicate additional information about its display
capabilities. The communication channel is defined in two levels,
DDC1 and DDC2B.
The DDC1 is a unidirectional data channel from the display to the
host that continuously transmits EDID information. The DDC2B is
a bidirectional data channel based on the I²C protocol. The host
can request EDID information over the DDC2B channel.
THIS MONITOR WILL APPEAR TO BE NON-FUNCTIONAL IF
THERE IS NO VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL. IN ORDER FOR THIS
MONITOR TO OPERATE PROPERLY, THERE MUST BE A
VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL.
This monitor meets the Green Monitor standards as set by the
Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) and/or the United
States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and The Swedish
Confederation Employees ( NUTEK ). This feature is designed to
conserve electrical energy by reducing power consumption when
there is no video input signal present. When there is no video input
signal this monitor, following a time-out period, will automatically
switch to an OFF mode. This reduces the monitor's internal power
supply consumption. After the video input signal is restored, full
power is restored and the display is automatically redrawn. The
appearance is similar to a "Screen Saver" feature except the
display is completely off. The display is restored by pressing a key
on the keyboard, or clicking the mouse.
