Backlight Enable
This section allows the user to enable the LCD display backlight (on systems equipped with optional
graphic user interface LCD display) and select the period of time after transmitter activity that the
backlight stays on.
The user has the option to check the “Always On” check box for backlight timeout. If this box is checked,
the backlight will remain on continuously while the transmitter is active.
NOTE: The longer the backlight is turned on, the shorter the transmitter battery life will be.
The user can also enable the backlight to turn off or timeout after a period of time, the user can select the
custom field and enter in the time (in seconds) that the backlight should be lit. The range of values is 1 to
30 seconds.
