OMEN 27I Dual Monitor Ambient Light Sync

[seanml315]

Hello! I am currently using 2 HP Omen 27I monitors and have a question about the ambient light for both.

Is there a way to sync the monitors together to be on the same color and change at the same time? Or is there a way to adjust the speed that the colors change? I can start both monitors at the same time, but shortly after they are changing at different times and are on separate colors. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Hi@seanml315,

Welcome to the HP Support Community! I'd like to help!

I see you are looking to sync the OMEN 27i Monitors together to be on the same color. You can adjust the light or turn it off in the OSD. Press the Menu button on the rear of the monitor, and then select Ambient Lighting. You can change the color of the ambient lighting to match LED lighting on computer, keyboard, and mouse.

I have a few recommendations 

Using Auto-Sleep Mode The monitor supports an OSD menu option called Auto-Sleep Mode that allows you to enable or disable a reduced power state for the monitor. When Auto-Sleep Mode is enabled (enabled by default), the monitor enters a reduced power state when the computer signals low power mode (absence of either horizontal or vertical sync signal). Upon entering this reduced power state (sleep mode), the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight is turned off, and the power light turns amber. The monitor draws less than 0.5 W of power when in this reduced power state. The monitor wakes from sleep mode when the computer sends an active signal to the monitor (for example, if you activate the mouse or keyboard). To disable Auto-Sleep Mode in the OSD: 1. Press the center of the OSD joystick to open the OSD menu. 2. In the OSD, select Power. 3. Select Auto-Sleep Mode, and then select Off.

Using the Sleep Timer You use the Sleep Timer menu to program the monitor to enter and exit the reduced power or sleep state at predetermined user-selectable times. For example, you can set the monitor to automatically enter sleep mode at 5 p.m. and then automatically wake from sleep mode at 8 a.m. When the monitor is in sleep mode, the power light blinks amber. To use the Sleep Timer: 1. Press the center of the OSD joystick to open the OSD menu. 2. Select Power. 3. Select Sleep Timer, and then select On. 4. Set the times you want the monitor to enter into sleep mode and wake from sleep mode. NOTE: The Sleep Timer is disabled if the Power-Off Timer is active.

Using External Lighting The monitor features External Lighting to illuminate a desktop or wall and enhance the gaming experience. You can adjust the color and brightness of the external light or turn it off in the OSD menu or OMEN Command Center. There are two independent control zones for External lighting: ● Ambient lighting – Controls the lighting located on the back of the monitor that projects on the wall. ● Bottom lighting – Controls the lighting located at the monitor base that projects onto the desk. To adjust the external lighting: 1. Press the center of the OSD joystick to open the OSD menu. 2. In the OSD, select Gaming, and then select External Lighting. 3. Select a setting for Ambient lighting or Bottom lighting: Ambient lighting selections (projects on the wall): ● Off: Turns off the external lighting. ● Task Light: Full white and bright setting to emulate an adjustable white desk light for better reading or viewing. ● Color Cycle: Slowly fades between all static color presets. ● Breathing: Slowly fades on and off. Speed has three settings – Slow, Medium, and Fast. Color is decided by the color selected in the static color menu. ● Static Color: Sets external lighting colors to Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Purple, Cyan, Orange, or custom. ● Random Color: Randomly cycles external light color through the static colors. ● LED Brightness: Adjusts the external LED brightness. ● Apply to all zones: Applies settings for this zone to all other external lighting zones on the display. Bottom lighting selections (projects onto the desk): ● Copy Ambient Zone: Sets the lighting settings for this zone to match settings set in Ambient zone menu. ● Off: Turns off external bottom lighting. 16 Chapter 2 Using the monitor ● Task Light: Full white and bright setting to emulate a white desk light for better reading or viewing ● Color Cycle: Slowly fades between all static color presets. ● Breathing: Slowly fades on and off.
