Operation
Using the Energy Saver Mode
Your monitor is designed to meet strict Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star
requirements for reduced power consumption. Using a combination of hardware and
software functions, this energy-saving feature allows your computer to control your
monitor’s power consumption and reduce your monitor’s power state when not in use.
✎
Your monitor’s energy saver feature works only when your monitor is connected to a
computer that also has energy saver features.
The Energy Saver utility, with its energy saving features, is available with all Microsoft
Windows operating systems. Some features are also available in DOS. Refer to your
computer’s user guide for instructions on setting energy saver features (also referred to
as power management features).
