6.2. Checking the Operation of PowerSaver
The monitor is equipped with a power management function. If the computer is left idle, the function
gradually reduced the power consumption of the monitor to a fraction of the normal consumption.
The proper operation of the function requires a computer with VESA DPMS power management
capabilities. Note that the power saving feature must be activated in the computer when checking
the operation.
