It is possible to activate a backlight on the AFG display. Press
and hold UNITS key whilst powering up the AFG with the
key. The backlight is now operating.
Please note that battery consumption is doubled when using
the backlight. For this reason the backlight setting is not
remembered after power down.
To conserve battery power, it is possible to activate an Auto-
off function so that the gauge powers down after either 2 or
10 minutes since the last key press, OR since a load change
of more than 2% of full-scale.
Press and hold ZERO key whilst powering up the AFG with
the key. A menu will appear with options OFF, 2 MINS,
10 MINS. Move the UP or DOWN key to desired setting
and press the ENTER key. The symbol Ao will appear in the
display to indicate if Auto-off is active. This feature is
remembered after power down.
