How do PCs send ‘power-off’ signal to monitor?

by robo_dev . Updated 17 years, 3 months ago

I just bought a flashy Belkin KVM switch to run two computers off one keyboard/video/mouse.

Everything works just peachy, except: Monitor will not go into standby mode. So the poor monitor just sits there with the Dell ‘loss of input signal’ message, with the power on, forever.

Anybody know how it works?

Is the method configurable in software, or this just a hardware thing?
