SPEAenergy is a utility to work with the DPMS functionality within Windows.
DPMS is a specification set by VESA which defines modes for reducing the power con-sumption of monitors and video devices.
You can use SPEAenergy to reduce power consumption by defining timeout values, e.g. for the deactivation of circuit elements which reduce the power consumption level in stages (e.g. from 120 W to 100 W to 30 W to 5 W).
Warning!
You must have a monitor that supports DPMS.
Via a dialog box you can activate 4 different DPMS modes.
The 4 DPMS modes are: ON, STAND-BY, SUSPEND and OFF.
