Powering off, then powering on the display again resolves the issue until the monitor sleeps again. There is no issue when the computer is set for [[sleep mode]]. Both the computer and the monitor wake from sleep with mouse movement. **Note:** If the monitor and computer do not wake when both the monitor and computer are sleep enabled, the issue described in this article is not present.  #### Cause To meet the 0.5W deep sleep power consumption target, the S2716DG [[Nvidia G-sync]] module is turned off after the monitor enters deep sleep mode. This state ignores mouse movement. #### Resolution **Note:** Deep Sleep is a sleep state configured on the monitor and not the computer. To quickly wake while retaining low-power deep sleep savings: - Press any of the monitor front panel buttons once to wake the monitor from deep sleep. - Power cycle the monitor to wake from deep sleep. Disable Deep Sleep: **Note:** The following configuration enables standard sleep. Power usage while in standard sleep mode exceeds the low power 0.5 W target. Disable the Monitor Deep Sleep Mode by following these steps: 1. Press **Button 3** to enter the **On-Screen Display (OSD)** Menu. 2. Use **Button 1** or **Button 2** and highlight Others. Press **Button 3** to select the option. 3. Select **Monitor Deep Sleep** (**Figure 1**) option and Press **Button 3** to Disable. > [!Note] > **Note:** Pressing any button (except the Power button) on the front panel of your Dell S2716DG Monitor may also wake up the monitor after it goes into deep sleep.
