Switching the monitor on/off
The ON/OFF switch (5) is used for switching the monitor on and off.
The power indicator of the ON/OFF switch glows green when the monitor and computer are
switched on. The power indicator glows amber when the monitor does not receive a video signal or
is in the energy-saving mode. The power indicator goes off when the monitor is switched off.
When you switch on the computer system, you must proceed in the following order:
Ê
First switch the LCD monitor on with the ON/OFF switch (5).
Ê
Then switch on the computer.
i
If your computer has a power management function (energy-saving mode), you should
read the "Notes on power management" of the monitor in this chapter.
Notes on power management
If your computer is equipped with power management, the monitor can support this function fully.
Here the monitor does not distinguish between the individual energy-saving modes of the computer
(standby mode, suspend mode and OFF mode), as it is capable of immediately switching into the
mode with the highest energy-saving effect.

If your computer detects inactivity (no input) it sends an appropriate signal to the monitor to reduce
the power consumption (energy-saving mode). The power indicator of the monitor changes colour to
indicate the status change.
Once an input is made at the computer the screen contents are redrawn and full power is restored.
For detailed information on how energy-saving mode operates refer to the Operating Manual or
Technical Manual of your computer.
i
When the monitor is switched to the energy-saving mode by the power management
system a power consumption of up to 3 W is maintained to feed the circuit for redrawing
the screen contents.
To completely switch off the power consumption, switch off the computer or pull the plug
of the monitor power cable out of the monitor socket of the computer or of the mains
outlet.
