8. DISPLAY MANAGEMENT
Adjusting the Brightness
The brightness of an LCD display is controlled by adjusting the backlight intensity level. The
backlight level for the X10gx can be controlled either manually or automatically. When you first
receive your X10gx, the brightness mode is set to “Automatic”.
Automatic Brightness Adjustment
Open the Backlight Setup dialog in ARMORutils. In Automatic mode, the backlight level is
controlled by the ambient light sensor (ALS) located on the Indicator panel. If the surrounding
light decreases, the brightness will also decrease proportionally; if the surrounding light
increases, the brightness will increase proportionally.
NOTE
You must keep the ALS uncovered to allow proper automatic
brightness adjustment.
Automatic Brightness Mode Profiles
Select one of the profiles that best controls the range of backlight levels to suit your work
environment. Refer to
Automatic Brightness Mode Profiles for an explanation of these profiles.
Manual Brightness Adjustment
Click on the Manual button to change to manual brightness mode. You can manually adjust
screen brightness in two ways: by using programmable buttons (PBs) P1, P2 and P3 or by
using options and buttons in the Backlight Setup dialog in ARMORutils.
Using the PBs
NOTE: ARMORutils must be running in order to use these programmable buttons (see Starting
ARMORutils).
Repeatedly press P1 to increase screen brightness. Repeatedly press P2 button to decrease
screen brightness. Press P3 to toggle the screen on and off.
Using the ARMORutils Backlight Setup Dialog
Open ARMORutils and select the Backlight Setup button. The Backlight Setup dialog opens as
shown in Figure 110.
