Power management modes
If you have VESA's DPM compliance display card or software installed in your
PC, the monitor can automatically reduce its power consumption when not in
use. This feature is called Power Save Mode*. If the computer detects input from
the keyboard, mouse or other input devices, the monitor automatically resumes
functioning. The following table shows the power consumption and signaling of this
automatic power saving feature.
* Zero power consumption in o mode can only be achieved by disconnecting the
power cable from the monitor.

Plug and play capability
You can install the monitor in any Plug and Play-compatible system. The monitor
automatically provides the computer system with its Extended Display Identication
Data (EDID) using Display Data Channel (DDC) protocols so the system can
congure itself and optimize the monitor settings. Most monitor installations are
automatic, you can select dierent settings if desired. For more information about
changing the monitor settings, see Operating your monitor.
LCD monitor quality and pixel policy
During the LCD Monitor manufacturing process, it is not uncommon for one or
more pixels to become xed in an unchanging state which are hard to see and
do not aect the display quality or usability. For more information on Dell Monitor
Quality and Pixel Policy, see Dell Support site at www.dell.com/support/monitors.
Maintenance guidelines
