PART II TO THE AGREEMENT

I. DISPLAY SPECIFICATIONS (Version 7.0)

1. Definitions

(A) Product Types: (1) Electronic Display (Display): A product with a display screen and associated electronics, often encased in a single housing, that as its primary function produces visual information from (1) a computer, workstation, or server via one or more inputs (e.g. VGA, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, IEEE 1394, USB), (2) external storage (e.g. USB flash drive, memory card), or (3) a network connection. (a) Monitor: An Electronic Display intended for one person to view in a desk-based environment. (b) Signage Display: An Electronic Display intended for multiple people to view in non-desk-based environments, such as retail or department stores, restaurants, museums, hotels, outdoor venues, airports, conference rooms or classrooms. For the purposes of this specification, a Display shall be classified as a Signage Display if it meets two or more criteria listed below: (1) Diagonal screen size is greater than 30 inches; (2) Maximum Reported Luminance is greater than 400 candelas per square metre; (3) Pixel density is less than or equal to 5 000 pixels per square inch; or (4) Ships without a mounting stand.

(B) Operational Modes: (1) On Mode: The mode in which the Display has been activated, and is providing the primary function. (2) Sleep Mode: A low-power mode in which the Display provides one or more non-primary protective functions or continuous functions. Note: Sleep Mode may serve the following functions: facilitate the activation of On Mode via remote switch, Touch Technology, internal sensor, or timer; provide information or status displays including clocks; support sensor-based functions; or maintain a network presence. (3) Off Mode: The mode where the Display is connected to a power source, produces no visual information, and cannot be switched into any other mode with the remote control unit, an internal signal, or an external signal. Note: The Display may only exit this mode by direct user actuation of an integrated power switch or control. Some products may not have an Off Mode.

(C) Visual Characteristics: (1) Ambient Light Conditions: The combination of light illuminances in the environment surrounding a Display, such as a living room or an office. (2) Automatic Brightness Control (ABC): The self-acting mechanism that controls the brightness of a Display as a function of Ambient Light Conditions. Note: ABC functionality must be enabled to control the brightness of a Display. (3) Colour Gamut: Colour gamut area shall be reported as a percentage of the CIE LUV 1976 u′ v′ colour space and calculated as per Section 5.18 Gamut Area of the Information Display Measurements Standard Version 1.03. Note: Any gamut support in non-visible/invisible colour areas is not to be counted. The gamut's size must be expressed as a percentage of area of the visible CIE LUV colour space only. (4) Luminance: The photometric measure of the luminous intensity per unit area of light travelling in a given direction, expressed in candelas per square metre (cd/m2). (a) Maximum Reported Luminance: The maximum luminance the Display may attain at an On Mode preset setting, and as specified by the manufacturer, for example, in the user manual. (b) Maximum Measured Luminance: The maximum measured luminance the Display may attain by manually configuring its controls, such as brightness and contrast. (c) As-shipped Luminance: The luminance of the Display at the factory default preset setting the manufacturer selects for normal home or applicable market use. (5) Native Vertical Resolution: The number of physical lines along the vertical axis of the Display within the visible area of the Display. Note: A Display with a screen resolution of 1 920 × 1 080 (horizontal × vertical) would have a Native Vertical Resolution of 1 080. (6) Screen Area: The visible area of the Display that produces images. Note: Screen Area is calculated by multiplying the viewable image width by the viewable image height. For curved screens, measure the width and height along the arc of the Display.

(D) Additional Functions and Features: (1) Bridge Connection: A physical connection between two hub controllers (i.e. USB, FireWire). Note: Bridge Connections allow for expansion of ports typically for the purpose of relocating the ports to a more convenient location or increasing the number of available ports. (2) Full Network Connectivity: The ability of the Display to maintain network presence while in Sleep Mode. Presence of the Display, its network services, and its applications, is maintained even if some components of the Display are powered down. The Display can elect to change power states based on receipt of network data from remote network devices, but should otherwise stay in Sleep Mode absent a demand for services from a remote network device. Note: Full Network Connectivity is not limited to a specific set of protocols. Also referred to as ‘network proxy’ functionality and described in the Ecma-393 standard. (3) Occupancy Sensor: A device used to detect human presence in front of or in the area surrounding a Display. Note: An Occupancy Sensor is typically used to switch a Display between On Mode and Sleep Mode. (4) Touch Technology: Enables the user to interact with a product by touching areas on the Display screen. (5) Plug-in Module: A modular plugin device that provides one or more of the following functions without the explicit purpose of providing general computing function: (a) Display images, mirror remote content streamed to it, or otherwise render content on the screen from local or remote sources; or (b) Process touch signals. Note: Modules providing any other additional input options are not considered Plug-in Modules for the purposes of this specification.

(E) Product Family: A group of product models that: (1) are made by the same manufacturer; (2) share the same Screen Area, Resolution, and Maximum Reported Luminance; and (3) are of a common basic screen design. Models within a Product Family may differ from each other according to one or more characteristics or features. For Displays, acceptable variations within a Product Family include: (1) External housing; (2) Number and types of interfaces; (3) Number and types of data, network, or peripheral ports; and (4) Processing and memory capability.

(F) Representative Model: The product configuration that is tested for Energy Star qualification and is intended to be marketed and labelled as ENERGY STAR.

(G) Power Source (1) External Power Supply (EPS): An external power supply circuit that is used to convert household electric current into DC current or lower-voltage AC current to operate a consumer product. (2) Standard DC: A method for transmitting DC power defined by a well-known technology standard, enabling plug-and-play interoperability. Note: Common examples are USB and Power-over-Ethernet. Usually Standard DC includes both power and communications over the same cable, but as with the 380 V DC standard, that is not required.

(H) Power Meter: Power meters shall possess the following attributes (1) Crest Factor: (a) An available current crest factor of 3 or more at its rated range value; and (b) Lower bound on the current range of 10 mA or less. (2) Minimum Frequency Response: 3,0 kHz (3) Minimum Resolution: (a) 0,01 W for measurement values less than or equal to 10 W; (b) 0,1 W for measurement values from greater than 10 W to 100 W; and (c) 1,0 W for measurement values greater than 100 W.

(I) Luminance and Illuminance Meters: (1) Luminance measurement shall be performed using either (a) A contact meter; or (b) A non-contact meter. (2) All luminance and illuminance meters shall be accurate to ± 2 % (± 2 digits) of the digitally displayed value. (3) Non-contact luminance meters shall have an acceptance angle of 3 degrees or less. The overall accuracy of a meter is found by taking (±) the absolute sum of 2 % of the measurement and a 2-digit tolerance of the displayed value least significant digit. For example, if an illuminance meter displays ‘200,0’ when measuring a screen brightness of 200 nits, 2 % of 200 nits is 4,0 nits. The least significant digit is 0,1 nits. ‘Two digits’ implies 0,2 nits. Thus, the displayed value would be 200 ± 4,2 nits (4 nits + 0,2 nits). The accuracy is specific to the illuminance meter and shall not be considered as tolerance during actual light measurements.

(J) Measurement Accuracy: (1) Power measurements with a value greater than or equal to 0,5 W shall be made with an uncertainty of less than or equal to 2 % at the 95 % confidence level. (2) Power measurements with a value less than 0,5 W shall be made with an uncertainty of less than or equal to 0,01 W at the 95 % confidence level. (3) All ambient light values (measured lux) shall be measured at the location of the ABC sensor on the UUT with light entering directly into the sensor and with the main menu from the test signal from IEC 62087:2011, ‘Methods of measurement for the power consumption of audio, video and related equipment’ displayed on the product. For products not compatible with the IEC test signal format, ambient light values shall be measured with the Video Electronics Standard Association (VESA) Flat Panel Display Measurements Standard version 2.0 (FPDM2) FK test signal being displayed on the product. (4) Ambient light values shall be measured within the following tolerances: (a) At 12 lux, ambient lighting shall be within ± 1,0 lux; and (b) At 300 lux, ambient lighting shall be within ± 9,0 lux.

(2) Products that include a ‘forced menu’ that requires picture setting selection upon initial start-up shall be tested in the ‘standard’ or ‘home’ picture setting. In the case that no standard setting or equivalent exists, the default setting recommended by the manufacturer shall be used for testing and recorded in the test report. Products that do not include a forced menu shall be tested in the default picture setting.

(B) Point of Deployment (POD) Modules: Optional POD modules shall not be installed.

(C) Plug-in Modules: Optional Plug-in Modules shall be removed from the Display if the Display can be tested according to the test method without the module installed.

(D) Sleep Mode with Multiple Functionalities: If the product offers multiple options for device behaviour in Sleep Mode (e.g. quick start) or multiple methods by which Sleep Mode may be entered, the power during all Sleep Modes shall be measured and recorded. All Sleep Mode testing shall be carried out as per Section 6.5.

5.2. Conditions for power measurements

(A) Power measurements: (1) Power measurements shall be taken from a point between the power source and the UUT. No Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) units may be connected between the power meter and the UUT. The power meter shall remain in place until all On Mode, Sleep Mode and Off Mode power data are fully recorded. (2) Power measurements shall be recorded in watts as directly measured (unrounded) values at a rate of greater than or equal to 1 reading per second. (3) Power measurements shall be recorded after voltage measurements are stable to within 1 %.

(B) Dark Room Conditions: (1) Unless otherwise specified, the illuminance measured at the UUT screen with the UUT in Off Mode shall be less than or equal to 1,0 lux. If the UUT does not have an Off Mode, the illuminance shall be measured at the UUT screen with the UUT's power cord disconnected.

(C) UUT Configuration and Control: (1) Peripherals and Network Connections: (a) External peripheral devices (e.g. mouse, keyboard, external hard disk drive (HDD), etc.) shall not be connected to USB ports or other data ports on the UUT. (b) Bridging: If the UUT supports bridging as per the definition in Section 1 of the Energy Star Specification for Displays Version 7.0, a bridge connection shall be made between the UUT and the Host Machine. The connection shall be made in the following order of preference. Only one connection shall be made and the connection shall be maintained for the duration of the test. (i) Thunderbolt; (ii) USB; (iii) Firewire (IEEE 1394); (iv) Other. Note: Examples of bridging for Displays may include: (1) A case where the Display converts data between two different port types (e.g. Thunderbolt and Ethernet). This can allow a device to use Thunderbolt as an Ethernet connection or vice versa. (2) Allowing a USB keyboard/mouse to be connected to another system (e.g. Host Machine) through the Display by a USB hub controller. (c) Networking: If the UUT has networking capability (i.e. it has the ability to obtain an IP address when configured and connected to a network) the networking capability shall be activated, and the UUT shall be connected to a live physical network (e.g. WiFi, Ethernet, etc.). The physical network shall support the highest and lowest data speeds of the UUT's network function. An active connection is defined as a live physical connection over the physical layer of the networking protocol. In the case of Ethernet, the connection shall be via a standard Cat 5e or better Ethernet cable to an Ethernet switch or router. In the case of WiFi the device shall be connected and tested in proximity to a wireless access point (AP). The tester shall configure the address layer of the protocol, taking note of the following: (i) Internet Protocol (IP) v4 and IPv6 have neighbour discovery and will generally configure a limited, non-routable connection automatically. (ii) IP can be configured manually or by using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) with an address in the 192.168.1.x Network Address Translation (NAT) address space if the UUT does not behave normally when autoIP is used. The network shall be configured to support the NAT address space and/or autoIP. (iii) The UUT shall maintain this live connection to the network for the duration of testing unless otherwise specified in this Test Method, disregarding any brief lapses (e.g. when transitioning between link speeds). If the UUT is equipped with multiple network capabilities, only one connection shall be made in the following order of preference: (a) WiFi (Institution of Electrical and Electronics Engineers — IEEE 802.11- 2007 (2)); (b) Ethernet (IEEE 802.3). If the UUT supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az-2010 (3)), then it shall be connected to a device that also supports IEEE 802.3az; (c) Thunderbolt; (d) USB; (e) Firewire (IEEE 1394); (f) Other. (d) Touchscreen Functionality: If the UUT features a touchscreen that requires a separate data connection, this function shall be set up as directed by the manufacturer's instructions, including connections to the Host Machine and installation of software drivers. (e) In the case of a UUT that has a single connection capable of performing multiple functions (e.g. bridging, networking, and/or touchscreen functionality), a single connector can be used to meet these functionalities provided it is the highest preferred connection the UUT supports for each functionality. (f) In the case of a UUT that has no data/network capabilities, the UUT shall be tested as shipped. (g) Built-in speakers and other product features and functions not specifically addressed by the Energy Star Specification or test method must be configured in the as-shipped power configuration. (h) Availability of other capabilities such as occupancy sensors, flash memory-card/smart-card readers, camera interfaces, PictBridge shall be recorded. (2) Signal Interface: (a) If the UUT has multiple signal interfaces, the UUT shall be tested with the first available interface from the list below: (i) Thunderbolt; (ii) DisplayPort; (iii) HDMI; (iv) DVI; (v) VGA; (vi) Other Digital Interface; (vii) Other Analogue Interface. (3) Occupancy Sensor: If the UUT has an occupancy sensor, the UUT shall be tested with the occupancy sensor settings in the as-shipped condition. For UUT's with an occupancy sensor enabled as-shipped: (a) A person shall be within close proximity of the occupancy sensor for the entire warm up, stabilisation, luminance testing and On Mode to prevent the UUT from entering a lower power state (e.g. Sleep Mode or Off Mode). The UUT shall remain in On Mode for the duration of the warm up period, stabilisation period, luminance test and On Mode test. (b) No person shall be within close proximity of the occupancy sensor for the duration of the Sleep Mode and Off Mode tests to prevent the UUT from entering a higher power state (e.g. On Mode). The UUT shall remain in Sleep Mode or Off Mode for the duration of the Sleep Mode or Off Mode tests, respectively. (4) Orientation: If the UUT can be rotated into vertical and horizontal orientations, it shall be tested in the horizontal orientation, with the longest dimension being parallel to the table surface.

(D) Resolution and Refresh Rate: (1) Fixed-pixel Displays: (a) Pixel format shall be set to the native level as specified in the product manual. (b) For non-Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) Displays, refresh rate shall be set to 60 Hz, unless a different default refresh rate is specified in the product manual, in which case the specified default refresh rate shall be used. (c) For CRT Displays, pixel format shall be set to the highest resolution that is designed to be driven at a 75 Hz refresh rate, as specified in the product manual. Typical industry standards for pixel format timing shall be used for testing. Refresh rate shall be set to 75 Hz.

(E) Accuracy of Input Signal Levels: When using analogue interfaces, video inputs shall be within ± 2 % of referenced white and black levels. When using digital interfaces, the source video signal shall not be adjusted for colour, or modified by the tester for any purpose other than to compress/inflate and encode/decode for transmission, as required.

(F) True Power Factor: Programme participants shall report the true power factor (PF) of the UUT during On Mode measurement. The power factor values shall be recorded at the same rate at which the power value (PON) are recorded. The reported power factor shall be averaged over the entire duration of the On Mode testing.

(G) Test Materials: (1) ‘IEC 62087:2011 Dynamic Broadcast-Content Signal’ shall be used for testing, as specified in IEC 62087:2011, Section 11.6, ‘On (average) mode testing using dynamic broadcast-content video signal’. (2) ‘VESA FPDM2’ shall be used only for products that cannot display the IEC 62087:2011 Dynamic Broadcast-Content Signal.

(H) Video Input Signal: (1) The Host Machine shall generate the video input signal in the native resolution of the Display such that the active area of the video fills the entire screen. This may require the playback software to adjust the aspect ratio of the video. (2) The frame rate of the video input signal should match the frame rate most commonly used in the region in which the product is sold (e.g. for the US and Japan, a 60 Hz frame rate is used; for Europe and Australia, a 50 Hz frame rate is used). (3) The audio settings on the Host Machine shall be disabled so that no sound is produced alongside the video input signal.

6. Test procedures for all products

6.1. Pre-test UUT initialisation

(A) Prior to the start of testing, the UUT shall be initialised as follows: (1) Set up the UUT as per the instructions in the supplied product manual. (2) Connect an acceptable watt meter to the power source and connect the UUT to the power outlet on the watt meter. (3) With the UUT off, set the ambient light level such that the measured screen illuminance is less than 1,0 lux (see Section 5.2(B)). (4) Power on the UUT and perform initial system configuration, as applicable. (5) Ensure UUT settings are in their as-shipped configuration, unless otherwise specified in this test method. (6) Warm up the UUT for 20 minutes, or the time it takes the UUT to complete initialisation and become ready for use, whichever is longer. The IEC 62087:2011 test signal format, as specified in Section 5.2(G)(1), shall be displayed for the entire warm-up period. Displays that cannot display the IEC 62087:2011 test signal format shall have the VESA FPDM2 L80 test signal, as specified in Section 5.2(G)(2), displayed on the screen. (7) Report the AC input voltage and frequency or DC input voltage. (8) Report the test room ambient temperature and relative humidity.

6.2. Luminance testing

(A) Luminance testing shall be performed immediately following the warm up period and in dark room conditions. Product screen illuminance, as measured with the UUT in Off Mode, shall be less than or equal to 1,0 lux.

(B) Luminance shall be measured perpendicular to the centre of the product screen using a luminance meter in accordance with the meter's user manual.

(C) The position of the luminance meter relative to the product screen shall remain fixed throughout the duration of testing.

(D) For products with ABC, luminance measurements shall be performed with ABC disabled. If ABC cannot be disabled, luminance measurements shall be measured perpendicular to the centre of the product screen with light entering directly into the UUT's ambient light sensor at greater than or equal to 300 lux.

(E) Luminance measurements shall be performed as follows: (1) Verify that the UUT is in the default as-shipped luminance value or ‘Home’ picture setting. (2) Display the test video signal for the specific product class, as described below: (a) All products, except as specified in (b): Three-bar video signal specified in IEC 62087:2011, Section 11.5.5 (three bars of white (100 %) over a black (0 %) background). (b) Products that cannot display signals from IEC 62087:2011: VESA FPDM2 L80 test signal for the maximum resolution supported by the product. (3) Display the test video signal for no less than 10 minutes to allow the UUT luminance to stabilise. This 10-minute stabilisation period may be reduced if luminance measurements are stable to within 2 % over a period of not less than 60 seconds. (4) Measure and record the luminance in default as-shipped setting LAs-shipped. (5) Set the brightness and contrast levels of the UUT to their maximum values. (6) Measure and record the luminance as LMax_Measured. (7) Record the manufacturer-reported maximum luminance LMax_Reported.

(F) The contrast setting shall be left at the maximum level for the subsequent On Mode tests unless otherwise specified.

6.3. On Mode testing for products without ABC enabled by default

(A) After the Luminance Testing and prior to On Mode power measurement, the luminance of the UUT shall be set according to the following: (1) For Signage Displays, the product shall be tested with luminance set at a value greater than or equal to 65 % of the manufacturer-reported maximum luminance (LMax_Reported). Luminance values shall be measured as per Section 6.2. This luminance value LOn shall be recorded. (2) For all other products, adjust appropriate luminance controls until the luminance of the screen is 200 candelas per square metre (cd/m2). If the UUT cannot achieve this luminance, set the product luminance to the nearest achievable value. Luminance values shall be measured as per Section 6.2. This luminance value LOn shall be reported. Appropriate luminance controls refer to any controls that adjust the brightness of the Display, but do not include contrast settings.

(B) For a UUT capable of displaying the IEC signals, On Mode power (PON) shall be measured according to IEC 62087:2011 Section 11.6.1 ‘Measurements using dynamic broadcast-content video signal.’ For a UUT not capable of displaying the IEC signals, On Mode power (PON) shall be measured as follows: (1) Ensure that the UUT has been initialised as per Section 6.1. (2) Display the VESA FPDM2, A112-2F, SET01K test pattern (8 shades of grey from full black (0 volts) to full white (0,7 volts)). (3) Verify that input signal levels conform to VESA Video Signal Standard (VSIS), Version 1.0, Rev. 2.0, December 2002. (4) With the brightness and contrast controls at maximum, verify that the white and near-white grey levels can be distinguished. If necessary, adjust contrast controls until the white and near-white grey levels can be distinguished. (5) Display the VESA FPDM2, A112-2H, L80 test pattern (full white (0,7 volts) box that occupies 80 % of the image). (6) Ensure that the luminance measurement area falls entirely within the white portion of the test pattern. (7) Adjust appropriate luminance controls until the luminance of the white area of the screen is set as described in Section 6.3(A). (8) Record the screen luminance (LOn). (9) Record On Mode power (PON) and total pixel format (horizontal ×vertical). The On Mode power shall be measured over a 10-minute period similar to the IEC 62087:2011 dynamic broadcast-content test.

6.4. On Mode testing for products with ABC enabled by default

The average On Mode power consumption of the product shall be determined with the dynamic broadcast-content as defined in IEC 62087:2011. If the product cannot display the IEC signal, then the VESA FPDM2 L80 test pattern, as described in Section 6.3(B)(5), shall be used for all of the following steps.

(A) Stabilise the UUT for 30 minutes. This shall be done with three repetitions of the 10-minute IEC dynamic broadcast-content video signal.

(B) Set the light output of the lamp used for testing to 12 lux as measured at the face of the ambient light sensor.

(C) Display the 10 minute dynamic broadcast-content video signal. Measure and record the power consumption, P12, during the 10 minute dynamic broadcast-content video signal.

(D) Repeat steps 6.4(B) and 6.4(C) for an ambient light level of 300 lux, to measure P300.

(E) Disable ABC and measure On Mode power (PON) as per Section 6.3. If ABC cannot be disabled, power measurements shall be conducted as follows: (1) If the brightness can be set to a fixed value as specified in Section 6.3, then On Mode power for these products shall be measured as per Section 6.3 with light entering directly into the UUT's ambient light sensor at greater than or equal to 300 lux. (2) If the brightness cannot be set to a fixed value, then On Mode power for these products shall be measured as per Section 6.3 with light entering directly into the UUT's ambient light sensor at greater than or equal to 300 lux and without modifying the screen brightness.

6.5. Sleep Mode testing

(A) Sleep Mode power (PSLEEP) shall be measured according to IEC 62301:2011, with the additional guidance in Section 5.

(B) The Sleep Mode test shall be conducted with the UUT connected to the Host Machine in the same manner as in the On Mode test. If possible, Sleep Mode shall be enacted by putting the Host Machine to sleep. For a computer Host Machine, Sleep Mode is defined in the Version 6.1 Energy Star Computers specification.

(C) If the product has a variety of Sleep Modes that may be manually selected, or if the product can enter Sleep Mode via different methods (e.g. remote control or putting the Host Machine to sleep), measurements shall be performed and recorded in all Sleep Modes. If the product automatically transitions through its various Sleep Modes, the measurement time shall be long enough to obtain an average of all Sleep Modes. The measurement shall still meet requirements (e.g. stability, measurement period, etc.) outlined in Section 5.3 of IEC 62301:2011.

6.6. Off Mode testing

(A) For products having Off Mode capability, at the conclusion of the Sleep Mode test, initiate Off Mode via the most easily accessible power switch.

(B) Measure Off Mode power (POFF) according to Section 5.3.1 of the IEC 62301:2011. Document the method of adjustment and sequence of events required to reach Off Mode.

(C) Any input synchronising signal check cycle may be ignored when measuring Off Mode power.

6.7. Additional testing

(A) For products with data/networking capabilities or a bridge connection, in addition to tests performed with data/networking capabilities activated and a bridge connection established (see Section 5.2(C)(1)), Sleep Mode Testing shall be performed with data/networking features deactivated and without any bridge connection established, as per Section 5.2(C)(1)(b) and (c).
