This property defines the maximum value of brightness of the video output device. Different manufacturers may have different values.

This property represents the maximum value of contrast of the video output device. Different manufacturers may have different values.

The use of this property has been deprecated. When evaluating the use of Quiesce, it was determined that this single property is not adequate for describing when a device will automatically exit a quiescent state. In fact, the most likely scenario for a device to exit a quiescent state was determined to be based on the number of outstanding requests queued rather than on a maximum time. This decision is reevaluated and later. Deprecated description: Maximum time, in milliseconds, that a Device can run in a Quiesced state. The state is defined in its Availability and AdditionalAvailability properties, where Quiesced is conveyed by the value 21. What occurs at the end of the time limit is device-specific. The Device can unquiesce, can be offline, or can take other actions. A value of 0 indicates that a Device can remain quiesced indefinitely.

This property represents the version number of the Monitor Command and Control Set (MCCS) standard recognized by the display.

• 7 = Non-Recoverable Error
• 8 = Starting
• 9 = Stopping
• 10 = Stopped — Implies a clean and orderly stop
• 11 = In Service — Describes an element being configured, maintained, cleaned, or otherwise administered.
• 12 = No Contact — Indicates that the monitoring system has knowledge of this element, but has never been able to establish communications with it.
• 13 = Lost Communication — Indicates that the ManagedSystem Element is known to exist and has been contacted successfully in the past, but is unreachable.
• 14 = Aborted — Implies an abrupt stop where the state and configuration of the element may need to be updated.
• 15 = Dormant — Indicates that the element is inactive or quiesced.
• 16 = Supporting Entity in Error — Indicates that this element may be OK but that another element, on which it is dependent, is in error. An example is a network service or endpoint that cannot function due to lower-layer networking problems.
• 17 = Completed — Indicates that the element has completed its operation. This value should be combined with either OK, Error, or Degraded so that a client can tell if the complete operation Completed with OK (passed), Completed with Error (failed), or Completed with Degraded (the operation finished, but it did not complete OK or did not report an error).
• 18 = Power Mode — Indicates that the element has additional power model information contained in the Associated PowerManagementService association.
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 0x8000.. = Vendor Reserved

OperationalStatus replaces the Status property on ManagedSystemElement to provide a consistent approach to enumerations, to address implementation needs for an array property, and to provide a migration path from today's environment to the future. This change was not made earlier because it required the deprecated qualifier. Due to the widespread use of the existing Status property in management applications, it is recommended that providers or instrumentation provide both the Status and OperationalStatus properties. Further, the first value of OperationalStatus should contain the primary status for the element. When instrumented, Status (because it is single-valued) should also provide the primary status of the element.

Horizontal screen size in cm.

Vertical screen size in cm.

Provides a high-level status value, intended to align with Red-Yellow-Green type representation of status. It should be used with DetailedStatus to provide high level and detailed health status of the ManagedElement and its subcomponents.

• 1 = OK — Indicates the ManagedElement is functioning normally.
• 2 = Degraded — Indicates the ManagedElement is functioning below normal.
• 3 = Error — Indicates the ManagedElement is in an Error condition.
• .. = DMTF Reserved
• 0x8000.. = Vendor Reserved
