for a period of time. However, when a presence or an activity is detected, the Adaptive Keys become
bright immediately.
The Adaptive Keys brightness profile is as follows:
• 100% brightness when a presence or an activity is detected
• 50% brightness when a presence or an activity not detected for three minutes
• 0% brightness when a presence or an activity not detected for 10 minutes
To wake up the Adaptive Keys, do one of the following:

• Use the TrackPoint pointing stick or the trackpad.
• Use the mouse if available.
