External Lighting Mode
The minimum and maximum brightness levels can be set for the DZMx Plus
Control Head. The external lighting has two modes, which is determined by the
way you set the Ext Lighting Calib Low point. The external lighting options are:
Option 1: External lighting input controls night lighting and toggles Day/Night
mode. This requires setting the 'Low calib' point to a level higher than
the lowest input voltage (typically at the 'detent' on the dimmer control).
Turning the input below the 'detent' position switches the brightness to Day
mode.
Option 2: External lighting input controls night lighting only (no Day/Night mode
switch). This requires setting the 'Low calib' point at the minimum input
voltage.
To change the brightness options for the external lighting on the DZMx Plus Control
Head:
1.
Press and hold the
key for 2 seconds.
2.
Scroll to Advanced > press ENTER > Ext Lighting Config Low > press
ENTER.
3.
Adjust both the keypad and display brightness. Use the LEFT key to lower the
brightness and the RIGHT key to increase the brightness to match the cockpit
lighting levels.
4.
Scroll to Input Calib. > press ENTER.
5.
Press the END key 3 times to save the settings and exit to the main screen.
