PowerSensor
What is PowerSensor?

PowerSensor is a unique environmentally friendly technology from Philips\
 which enables user to save upto 70% of 
power consumption. It is very user friendly and requires no software ins\
tallation in order to operate. It works by 
default thereby starting to save power and money straight out of the box\
. 
User present in front User not present
Power consumption as illustrated above is for reference purpose only.

How does it work?
m     PowerSensor works on principle of transmission and reception of harmless\
 “infrared” signals in order to detect user-presence.  m     When the user is in front of the monitor the monitor operates normally, \
at the predetermined settings that the user has set- i.e. 
Brightness, contrast, color, etc
m     Assuming that the monitor was set to 100% of brightness for example, whe\
n the user leaves his seat and is no longer in front of the 
monitor, the monitor dims down to 30% of the brightness level 
What are the Benefits?
m     Reduction of brightness results in about 50% to 70% power savingsm     Reduction in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) to the companym     “Green” performance, Environment friendly operations

m     Increase in lifetime of monitor, results in lower TCO 
PowerSensor settings
Default settings
At its default setting, Setting 3, PowerSensor is designed to detect the presence of a monitor user located between 30\
 
and 100 cm (12 and 40 inches) from the display and within five degrees\
 left or right of the monitor.


Custom settings
When a user chooses a position outside the perimeters listed above, choo\
se a higher strength signal for optimal 
detection efficiency: The higher the setting, the stronger the detection\
 signal. For maximum PowerSensor efficiency, 
please position yourself directly in front of your monitor.


m     If you choose to position yourself more than 100 cm or 40 inches from th\
e monitor use the maximum detection signal for distances 
up to 120cm or 47 inches.
m     Since dark colored clothing tends to absorb infrared signals even when t\
he user is within 100 cm or 40 inches of the display, step 
up signal strength when wearing black or other dark garb.
m     You can return to the default mode at any time a narrower detection rang\
e is desired.
How to adjust settings
If PowerSensor is not operating correctly inside or outside the default range, here’s how to fine-tune detection:




m     Press the PowerSensor hot keym     You will find the default position ‘3’ on the adjustment bar. m     Adjust the PowerSensor detection adjustment to Setting 4 and press OK. m     Test the new setup to see if PowerSensor properly detect you in your current position.
Note: 
A manually selected PowerSensor mode will remain operational unless and \
until it is readjusted or the default mode is recalled.
If PowerSensor is excessively sensitive to nearby motion, experiment wit\
h a lower signal strength.
