Energy Star® The Energy Star program, a government-backed initiative, promotes energy efficiency by identifying ways to reduce energy consumption. Select HP workstations participate in the Energy Star program. NOTE Energy Star is not supported on Linux-based workstations. For those workstations that support Energy Star and have it enabled, the power management features are set as follows: ● The monitor goes into power savings mode after 20 minutes of inactivity. ● The system goes into standby mode after 20 minutes of inactivity NOTE If you have to restore the operating system, reset the Energy Star settings (if applicable) after the restore. To verify the factory default power settings for your product, select Start>Control Panel and doubleclick Power Options. Energy Star compliance HP products purchased with the Energy Star configuration are compliant with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Computers Program. The EPA Energy Star configuration does not imply endorsement by the EPA. As an Energy Star partner, HP offers products with the Energy Star configuration to meet the Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency. EPA created the Energy Star Computers Program to promote energy efficiency and reduce air pollution through more energy-efficient equipment in homes, offices, and factories. HP products achieve this result by reducing the power consumption when not being used. Energy Star on HP workstations uses Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) power management. The system can wake as a result of a user action (keyboard or mouse) or from the network or a modem. The Power Management feature, when used in conjunction with an external Energy Star-compliant monitor, will support the power-down features of the monitor. The Power Management feature allows an external monitor to go into low-power mode when the Energy Save timeout occurs. NOTE Using the Energy Star Save Monitor feature with non-Energy Star-compliant monitors might cause video distortion when the Energy Save timeout occurs. ENWW Energy Star® 13
