EcoView Settings
This monitor is equipped with EcoView functions to enable users to conserve energy.
If you use Auto EcoView, which is one of the EcoView functions, the screen brightness is
automatically adjusted according to the ambient brightness.
Function Setting Value Description
Auto EcoView
On
O
The ambient light sensor on the front of the monitor detects the
ambient brightness to automatically adjust the screen brightness
to a comfortable level using Auto EcoView. The power
consumption of the backlight can be curtailed by adjusting the
brightness to an appropriate level.
This function can also mitigate eye strain and tiredness caused
by a screen that is too bright or too dark.
Note
• Be careful not to block the ambient light sensor on the lower
side of the monitor when using Auto EcoView.
• Even if Auto EcoView is set to “On”, the “Brightness” can
be changed in Color, according to your preferences. The
manner in which Auto EcoView changes the brightness will
also vary depending on the value you set.
• When “DICOM” is selected for the color mode, the Auto
EcoView setting is turned “O”.
EcoView Optimizer 2
On
O
The monitor automatically adjusts the screen brightness
according to the white level of the input signal.
This function can reduce power consumption while maintaining
the brightness specied by the input signal.
Note
• The setting is turned “O” in the following cases:
- When “Movie” or “DICOM” is selected for the color mode
- When using PbyP display
• When set to “On”, the appearance of pale colors may
change. If this bothers you, set this function to “O”.
Note
• The power saving level (Power Reduction, CO
2
Reduction, and Eco Performance Level) can be checked on
the “EcoView Settings” menu. The more indicators that light up representing the Eco Performance Level, the
higher the power saving level attained.
- Power Reduction: the reduction in the backlight’s power consumption as a result of the adjusted brightness
value.
- CO
2
Reduction: converted from the “Power Reduction” value, this is an estimate of the quantity of CO
2
emissions reduced when using the monitor for 1 hour.
• The numeric value is a result of calculation based on a default setting (0.000555t-CO2 / kWh) determined by
a Japanese ministerial ordinance (2006, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, Ministry of Environment,
civil code article 3) and may dier depending on country and year.
