Plug & Play
This monitor complies with the DDC™1, DDC2B and
DDC2AB which are the Display Data Channel (DDC)
standards of VESA.
When a DDC1 host system is connected, the monitor
synchronizes with the V. CLK in accordance with the VESA
standards and outputs the EDID (Extended Display
Identification Data) to the data line.
When a DDC2B or DDC2AB host system is connected, the
monitor automatically switches to each communication.
DDC™ is a trademark of Video Electronics Standard Association.
Damper Wire
Using a white background, very thin horizontal lines on the
screen are visible as shown below. These lines are damper
wires.
The Trinitron tube has a vertically striped Aperture Grill
inside. The Aperture Grille allows more light to pass
through to the screen giving the Trinitron CRT more color
and brightness.
These damper wires are attached to the Aperture Grille to
prevent vibration of the Aperture Grille wire so that the
screen image is constantly stable.

Power Saving
Function
This monitor is capable of three states of reduced power
consumption. By sensing the absence of video signals and
one or both sync signals coming from the host computer, it
will reduce power consumption as follows.

Power saving operation
• The H-sync is not present.
/ The unit goes into standby state.
• The V-sync is not present.
/ The unit goes into suspend state.
• Both the H-sync and V-sync are not present.
/ The unit goes into active-off state.
The monitor requires a video card or screen saver software
which switches off one or both sync signals to activate the
power saving function.
Caution
If no video signal is input to the monitor, or if the input
select switch is set to the connector to which no signal is
input when you turn on the monitor, the input signal
warning indicator (page 17) appears. After 30 seconds, the
Power Saving function automatically puts the monitor into
the Active-off state and the
lights up. Once the horizontal and vertical syncs are sensed,
the monitor will automatically return to its Normal
operation state.
