Power Consumption
Energy Saving Design
This monitor complies with the EPA's Energy Star program, which is a
program designed to have manufacturers of computer equipment build
circuitry into their products to reduce power consumption during time of
non-use.
This monitor also goes into its energy saving mode if you exceed the
monitor's operating limits, such as the maximum resolution of 1024 x 768
or the frequency refresh rates of 31-69kHz horizontal or 56-85Hz vertical.
When this monitor is used with a Green or EPA Energy Star PC, or a PC
with a screen blanking software following the VESA Display Power
Management Signalling (DPMS) protocol, this monitor can conserve
significant energy by reducing power consumption during periods of non-
use. When the PC goes into the energy saving mode, the monitor will go
into a suspended operation state, indicated by the Power LED light
changing from a green color to an amber color. After an extended period
in the suspended mode, the monitor will then enter a semi-OFF mode to
conserve more energy. In the semi-OFF mode or DPMS OFF mode as we
call it in our specifications, the Power LED will still show an amber color.
When you awaken your PC by hitting a key or moving the mouse, the
monitor will also awaken to its normal operating mode, indicated by the
green Power LED light. By following these conventions, the power
consumption can be reduced to the following levels:
