Entering user modes
Under the following circumstances, the video controller signal may occasionally call for a mode that is not preset:
• You are not using a standard graphics adapter.
• You are not using a preset mode.
If this occurs, you may need to readjust the parameters of the monitor screen by using the on-screen display. Your changes can be made to any or all of these modes and saved in memory. The monitor automatically stores the new setting and then recognizes the new mode just as it does a preset mode. In addition to the factory preset modes, there are at least 10 user modes that can be entered and stored.
Energy saver feature
The monitor supports a reduced power state. The reduced power state will be initiated if the monitor detects the absence of either the horizontal sync signal or the vertical sync signal. Upon detecting the absence of these signals, the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight is turned off, and the power light turns amber. When the monitor is in the reduced power state, the monitor will utilize less than 0.5 watts of power. There is a brief warm-up period before the monitor will return to its normal operating state.
Refer to the computer manual for instructions on setting the energy saver feature (sometimes called the power management feature).

NOTE: The energy saver feature works only when the monitor is connected to a computer that has energy saver features.
By selecting the settings in the monitor's Sleep Timer utility, you can also program the monitor to initiate the reduced power state at a predetermined time. When the monitor's Sleep Timer utility causes the monitor to enter the reduced power state, the power light blinks amber.
