12) Energy Saving Setting
This is a function that reduces power consumption and reduces deterioration of the panel by controlling the brightness
of the screen. The brightness is according to the input signal.
• To make the screen bright and easy to see: Set 'ENERGY SAVE: STANDARD'
• To reduce power consumption: Set 'ENERGY SAVE: MODE1, MODE2'
• To reduce deterioration of the panel such as burning: Set 'ENERGY SAVE: MODE 3'
• To perform control according to the brightness of the room and to adjust the screen according to the surroundings:
Set 'ENERGY SAVE: AUTO'
Factory setting: STANDARD

• The external sensor changes in stages; from an external light of 200 lux (rough value) to external light of 0 lux.

For an overall bright video, there is no change
(Figure on the left).
For an overall dark video, the peak brightness
is reproduced even brighter (Figure on the

Power consumption is lowered by reducing
the brightness of an overall bight video
(Figure on the left).
Similar to in the STANDARD setting, an overall
dark video is peak brightness is reproduced
even brighter (Figure on the right).
The peak brightness in MODE2 is decreased
by a set amount with respect to that in
MODE1, however it is reproduced brighter
than in MODE3.

Input signal graduation is not controlled but
reproduced accurately. Deterioration of the
panel due to burning is reduced since the
peak brightness of an overall dark video is
not increased.
