LCD CONTRAST AND BACKLIGHT OPTIONS

SYSTEM
The LCD menu allows you change the contrast of the LCD, the Backlight Mode and the Backlight On-Time. Changing the
Contrast settings can make it easier to view the LCD in different lighting conditions and changing the Backlight Mode and
Backlight On-Time affects how the Backlight is turned ON and how long the Backlight stays ON.
IMPORTANT: Leaving the LCD Backlight ON at all times will Increase battery consumption. In addition, Decreasing the
Contrast value near the Lower limit can result in the LCD becoming nearly impossible to read. Be careful not to set the Contrast
value too low.
