Setting the display backlight intensity
Depending upon the lighting conditions you are in you may need to change the backlight settings for
the display. Press the backlight button momentarily to step through each level of backlight
intensity.
1.
Press the backlight button momentarily. The
backlight intensity will increase 20% until it reaches
the maximum intensity. Pressing the backlight
button again will turn off the display backlight.
Please note that reducing the backlight setting will increase
the battery life for the Triton. Sometimes reducing the
backlight intensity is so slight so as not to be noticeable yet
will still conserve power. Refer to the section in this chapter
on Battery Life for other tips on extending the Triton’s battery
life. Note: maximum backlight intensity is reduced as
battery capacity gets lower.
Setting the Time Zone
The time and date information will be computed from information from the GPS satellites so there is
