Backlight
A backlight illuminates the display and the keypad. When you press any key, the backlight comes on. It goes off
when no keys are pressed within a given period of time, depending on the setting within the Backlight menu. The
display turns off after one minute to conserve battery power.
The On setting is how long the keypad backlight is on. The Dim option is how much longer after the keypad
