Setting the display backlight intensity
Depending upon the lighting conditions you are in you may need to change the backlight settings for 
the display. Press the backlight button momentarily to step through each level of backlight 
intensity.
1. Press the backlight button momentarily. The 
backlight intensity will increase 20% until it reaches 
the maximum intensity. Pressing the backlight 
button again will turn off the display backlight.
Please note that reducing the backlight setting will increase 
the battery life for the Triton. Sometimes reducing the 
backlight intensity is so slight so as not to be noticeable yet 
will still conserve power. Refer to the section in this chapter 
on Battery Life for other tips on extending the Triton’s battery 
life. Note: maximum backlight intensity is reduced as 
battery capacity gets lower.
