The determined value must not exceed the declared value by more than 5 seconds.
9.
For televisions equipped with room presence sensor: the length of time after no presence is detected before the television automatically switches to standby, off-mode, or another condition which does not exceed the applicable power demand requirements for off mode or standby mode
The determined value must not exceed the declared value by more than 5 seconds.
10.
For electronic displays other than televisions and broadcast displays: the length of time after no input is detected before the electronic display automatically switches to standby, off-mode or another condition which does not exceed the applicable power consumption requirements for off mode or standby mode
