Upon detecting the absence of these signals, the monitor screen is
blanked, the backlight is turned off, and the Power light is turned
amber. When the monitor is in the reduced power state, the
monitor will utilize less than 5 watts of power. There is a brief
warm up period before the monitor will return to its normal
operating mode.

Refer to your computer manual for instructions on setting energy
saver features (sometimes called power management features).

The above energy saver feature only works when connected to
computers that have energy saver features.

By selecting settings in the monitor’s Energy Saver utility, you
can also program the monitor to enter into the reduced power
state at a predetermined time. When the monitor’s Energy Saver
utility causes the monitor to enter the reduced power state, the
Power light blinks amber.
