EnglishConnecting the power cord
•Check first to make sure that the pow er cord you use is the correct type 
required for your area.
•The monitor has a universal power supply that allows operation in either 
100/120 V AC or 220/240 V AC voltage area. No user-adjustment is 
required.
•Plug one end of the power cord to the AC inlet, and plug the other end 
into an AC outlet.
•For units using 120 V AC:
Use a UL-listed cord set, type SVT wire and plug rated 10 A/125 V.
•For units using 220/240 V AC:
Use a cord set consisting of H05VV-F cord and plug rated 10 A/250 V. The 
cord set should have the appropriate  safety approvals for the country in 
which the equipment will be installed.
Power saving
The monitor will be switched to power saving mode by the control signal 
from the display controller, as indi cated by the amber-colored power LED.
The power saving mode will be kept until a control signal has been detected or 
the keyboard or mouse is activated. The recovery time from power saving 
mode back to on is around 3 seconds.
Display Data Channel (DDC)
To make installation easier, so long as your system supports the DDC protocol, 
the monitor is able to plug-and-play. The DDC is a communication protocol 
through which the monito r automatically informs the host system about its 
capabilities; for example, supported resolutions and corresponding timing. The 
monitor supports th e DDC2B standard.
