light parameter configuration tab. Once the tab is highlighted the
option can be changed by pressing the F2 key repeatedly or using
the UP and DOWN keys to select either “On”, “Off” or “Auto”.

highlight the LED parameter configuration tab. Once the tab is
highlighted the option can be changed by pressing the F3 key
