    4. PowerSensor 4. PowerSensor™ (Available for model 247E3LPH only) PowerSensor is a unique environmentally friendly technology from Philips which enables user to save up to 80% of power consumption. In line with Philip’s Sense and Simplicity Promise, this user friendly technology works for you right out of the box without any hardware or software installation, and without any user intervention in the default mode. How does it work? • PowerSensor works on principle of transmission and reception of harmless “infrared” signals in order to detect user-presence. • When the user is in front of the monitor the monitor operates normally, at the predetermined settings that the user has set- i.e. Brightness, contrast, color, etc. • Assuming that the monitor was set to 100% of brightness for example, when the user leaves his seat and is no longer in front of the monitor, the monitor automatically reduces the power consumption down to 80%.
  • Page 20 4. PowerSensor • You can return to the default mode at any time (Setting 3). Hot key Sensor distance Power Sensor How to adjust settings If PowerSensor is not operating correctly inside or outside the default range, here’s how to fine-tune detection: • Press the PowerSensor hot key. • You will find the default position ‘3’ on the adjustment bar. • Adjust the PowerSensor detection adjustment to Setting 4 and press OK. • Test the new setup to see if PowerSensor properly detects you in your current position. Note A manually selected PowerSensor mode will remain operational unless and until it is readjusted or the default mode is recalled. If you find that the PowerSensor is excessively sensitive to nearby motion for some reason, please adjust to a lower signal strength.
