LCD Brightness
The LCD brightness is separately adjustable for day and night modes. To use this
setting, choose the desired brightness setting for day and night modes. A light sensor
located on the front of the DVM automatically places the system in the correct mode
(day or night). This sensor uses a sampling filter to sense changes in ambient light;
therefore some delay will be present when switching between the two modes. This is
designed to prevent the DVM from switching unnecessarily when the dome light or car
door is opened, for example.
Settings: Day Mode 1-7 [Default =
5
], Night Mode 1-7 [Default =
5
]
The LCD brightness setting can be temporarily overridden by the DVM
Record LED Behavior
