IPM
™
(Intelligent Power Manager) System
The monitor has a IPM(Intelligent Power Manager) Sys-
tem which reduces the power consumption of the monitor
when not in use.
When the horizontal sync signal and/or vertical sync signal
is off, after about 10 seconds the monitor is switched to a
power saving mode which reduces the monitor power
consumption to less than 3W. When the monitor is in
power saving mode, the screen is off and the power
indicator will illuminate at amber.
After the signals are restored, picture will be displayed
within about 3 seconds.
Check your computer's manual for setting this function.
1.4
DDC
The monitor includes the DDC
monly known as "Plug & Play". DDC(Display Data Chan-
nel) is a communication channel over which the monitor
automatically informs the computer about its capabililties
(e.g. each supported resolution with its corresponding
timing).
DDC is routed through previously unused pins of the 15-
pin VGA connector.
The system will perform "Plug and Play" feature if both,
monitor and computer, implement the DDC protocol.
When a Plug and Play computer starts, it identifies the
monitor and loads the appropriate driver automatically. If
the computer does not have the driver installed, a dialog
box will appear asking where the information can be
found. The latest drivers may be downloaded from the
"Support" section of the NEC-MITSUBISHI Website lo-
cated at:

Display Mode Selection ("DISPLAY MODE"
P1-10)
The following two display modes are available. You can
select either mode suitable to your work, on the OSM
(
P1-10).
Text Mode
The contrast is emphasized more than the accuracy of the
color appearance in this mode. This mode is suitable for
such works that the accuracy of the displayed colors is not
so important, e.g. document making, calculation, data-
base making, etc.
Graphic Mode
The accuracy of the color tone is emphasized in this mode.
This mode is suitable for such works where the accuracy
of the displayed colors is important, e.g. photograph
processing, making of illustration, etc.
•
When you receive the monitor, "DISPLAY MODE" is
set to "GRAPHIC" mode.
•
Before selecting "Graphic Mode", perform "AUTO
SETUP". If not, the displayed screen may become too
bright.
•
Before using "Color Matching", set the "COLOR" to
"NATIVE", "DISPLAY MODE" to "GRAPHIC".

Auto Adjustment Function ("AUTO ADJUST"
P1-10)
This function is to adjust "CLOCK PHASE" automatically
and periodically (once per 30 min.) against changes of the
signal condition or ambient temperature and to adjust
"CLOCK PHASE", "HORIZONTAL POSITION" and "VER-
TICAL POSITION" automatically when changing the sig-
nal timing.
•
When you receive the monitor, "AUTO ADJUST" is set
to "OFF".
•
When using the monitor with some computers, "AUTO
ADJUST" may function negatively. In that case, set
"AUTO ADJUST" to "OFF".
•
When "AUTO ADJUST" is set to "ON", you may feel
the screen stopping when using mouse or displaying
an animation. However, it is not a fault condition and
it is caused by the "AUTO ADJUST" working.
1.7
Screen Auto Expand Function ("EXPAND"
P1-10)
This function is to expand the screen automatically. By a
smoothing function, you can get a clear screen when the
screen is expanded by this function. This function is
available in case that a signal of 1024 dots by 768 lines or
lower is inputted to the monitor.
•
With some resolution, even if it meets the condition
above, the screen is not expanded fully to the screen
area.
•
With some signal type inputted, the screen is not
expanded vertically or horizontally.
•
With some resolution, the image may be slightly
blurred.
1.8
Signal Input Connector Auto Selection Func-
tion ("AUTO SELECT"
This function is to select the signal input connector which
is in the active condition automatically. In case that two
computers are connected with the monitor, another com-
puter will be selected automatically when the first selected
computer went into a power saving mode.
•
When you receive the monitor, "AUTO SELECT" is set
to "ON".
