DPMS (Display Power Management Signaling) enables power-saving behavior of monitors when the computer is not in use. The idle time before the monitor enters a given power-saving level (standby, suspend, or off) can be set as described in DPMSSetTimeouts(3). Some monitors make no distinction between the various DPMS modes.
