FEATURES Green monitor •  The monitor has a power saving function that conforms to the VESA DPMS standard. This feature will only work if your PC is a green PC. This feature is similar to a screen saver, except that your monitor will turn itself off instead of activating the screen saver. To activate this feature in Windows®  95/98/ME/2000/XP: In Windows® 95/98/ME/2000/XP, this feature can be activated and customized under the screen saver setting of the display properties. 1.  Right click on the desktop and choose Properties. 2.  Click on the tab that says Screen Saver. If your system supports Green PC, there will be a section entitled “Energy Saving Features of Monitor.” If there isn’t a section like that, then your PC does not support Green Monitor. The monitor will behave just like a normal monitor, so you will have to turn it off manually to save energy. 3.  In the “Energy Saving Features of Monitor” sections are two boxes, Standby and Shut off. To activate either one, click the box next to each one. 4.  You can specify the amount of inactive time before your monitor enters standby mode or shuts off. 5.  This model of monitor can automatic degauss when switched on. You can use the perform degauss function knob on OSD menu to degauss by yourself.  •  The power-saving mode can be indicated by the light-emitting diode (LED) on the front panel:  Signal Power Mode  Cable H-Sync V-Sync Video Indicator ConsumptionOn*  Attached Yes  Yes Active Green  ≤ 75 W Stand-by Attached  No  Yes  Blank Flash Green  ≤  2 W
Suspend Attached  Yes  No  Blank Flash Green  ≤  2 W Off Attached No No Blank Flash Green        ≤  2 W   THIS MONITOR WILL APPEAR TO BE NON-FUNCTIONAL IF THERE IS NO VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL. IN ORDER FOR THIS MONITOR TO OPERATE PROPERLY, THERE MUST BE A VIDEO INPUT SIGNAL.  This monitor meets the Power Management standards as set by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) and/or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and The Swedish Confederation Employees ( NUTEK ). This feature is designed to conserve electrical energy by reducing power consumption when there is no video input signal present. When there is no video input signal this monitor, following a time-out period, will automatically switch to an OFF mode. This reduces the monitor's internal power supply consumption. After the video input signal is restored, full power is restored and the display is automatically redrawn. The appearance is similar to a "Screen Saver" feature  except the display is completely off. The display is restored by pressing a key on the keyboard, or clicking the mouse.  Plug and play  Plug & Play DDC2B Feature  This monitor is equipped with VESA DDC2B capabilities according to the VESA DDC STANDARD. It allows the monitor to inform the host system of its identity and, depending on the level of DDC used, communicate additional information about its display capabilities.  The DDC2B is a bidirectional data channel based on the I²C protocol. The host can request EDID information over the DDC2B channel.     Video Cable Pin Assignments:  1. Red  5. Ground    9. NC  13.
