If you have VESA's DPM™ compliance display card or software installed in your PC, the monitor can automatically reduce its power consumption when not in use. This is
referred to as 'Power Save Mode'*. If input from keyboard, mouse or other input devices is detected by the computer, the monitor will automatically "wake up". The following
table shows the power consumption and signaling of this automatic power saving feature:
VESA Modes

NOTE: The OSD will only function in the 'normal operation' mode. Otherwise one of the following messages will
appear when the "menu" or "plus" buttons are pressed when in Active-off mode.
This monitor is ENERGY STAR®-compliant as well as TCO '99 / TCO '03 power management compatible.
* Zero power consumption in OFF mode can only be achieved by disconnecting the main cable from the monitor.
