Dimming
The dimming level of the display can be adjusted in two ways. A light sensor mounted in the
display driver can detect the level of ambient light at the display location and dim the
display’s LEDs accordingly. This function is known as automatic dimming.
When the manual dimming function is selected, the LEDs remain at the same level of
brightness regardless of the level of light detected at the display. To select either of these
functions, press
<DIMMING>
. The current setting is shown on the bottom line of the LCD.
