Preset and User Modes
This monitor has factory preset modes for the most popular
industry standards for true “plug and play” compatibility.
(See Appendix for a list of the factory preset modes.)
When a new input signal is entered, the monitor selects the
appropriate factory preset mode and momentarily adjusts
the phase calibration to provide a high quality picture to the
center of the screen. The calibration is stored in memory
and is immediately recalled whenever the same input signal
is received.
For input signals that do not match one of the factory preset
modes, the digital Multiscan technology of this monitor
performs all of the adjustments necessary to ensure that a
clear picture appears on the screen for any timing in the
monitor’s frequency range. However, it may be necessary
to fine tune the vertical/horizontal centering. Simply press
the AUTO button or adjust the monitor according to the
adjustment instructions. The adjustments are stored
automatically as a user mode and recalled whenever the
corresponding input signal is received.

Power Saving Function
This monitor meets the power-saving guidelines set by
VESA and
VESA and
E
NERGY
S
TAR, as well as the more stringent
NUTEK .
If the monitor is connected to a computer or video graphics
board that is VESA DPMS (Display Power Management
Signaling) compliant, the monitor will automatically reduce
power consumption in three stages as shown below.
You can set the delay time before the monitor enters the
power saving mode using the OSD. Set the time according
to “Setting the Power Saving Delay Time” on page 15.

** “Sleep” and “deep sleep” are power saving modes defined by
the Environmental Protection Agency.
*** When your computer enters the power saving mode, the input
signal is cut and NO INPUT SIGNAL appears on the screen.
After the time set in “Changing the Power Saving Delay Time”
(page 15) has elapsed, the monitor enters the power saving
mode.
