Technical Features

Preset and user modes

When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically matches the signal to one of the factory preset modes stored in the monitor's memory to provide a high quality picture (see "Preset mode timing table" on page i). For input signals that do not match one of the factory preset modes, the digital Multiscan technology of this monitor ensures that a clear picture appears on the screen for any timing in the monitor's frequency range (horizontal: 30 - 70kHz , vertical: 48 - 120Hz ). If the picture is adjusted, the adjustment data is stored as a user mode and automatically recalled whenever the same input signal is received.

Power saving function

This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by VESA, ENERGY STAR, and NUTEK. If no signal is received by the monitor from your computer, the monitor will automatically reduce power consumption as shown below.

Power mode Power consumption		\( \updownarrow \) (power) indicator
normal operation	\( \leq {100}\mathrm{\;W} \) green
active off*	\( \leq 3\mathrm{\;W} \) orange
power off \( 0\mathrm{\;W} \) (Approx.) off

• When your computer is in active off mode, MONITOR IS IN POWER SAVE MODE appears on the screen if you press any button on the monitor. After a few seconds, the monitor enters the power saving mode again.
