Controlling the Display Backlight
You can enable or disable the radio display backlight as
needed, if poor light conditions make the display or keypad
difficult to read.
Depending on how your radio is preprogrammed, you can
also maintain a minimum backlight level on the radio front
display.
NOTICE:
The backlight setting also affects the Menu Select
buttons, the Navigation button and the keypad
backlighting accordingly.
The backlight remains on for a preprogrammed time
before it automatically turns off completely or
returns to the minimum backlight level.
The preprogrammed Light/Flip button of the
accessories connected to the radio such as Display
Remote Speaker Microphone (DRSM) is disabled
when the radio is in Night Vision Goggles (NVG)
display mode.
Perform one of the following actions:
•
To toggle the backlight on or off, press the
preprogrammed Light/Flip button.
•
To turn the backlight on, press any key of the
keypad, the Menu Select or Navigation button,
or any programmable radio controls or buttons.
Setting Up the Radio Display and
Visual Indicators to Suit Night Vision
Goggles
During tactical nighttime operations of military entities
worldwide, the Night Vision Goggles (NVG) is used to see
in the dark. Your radio is 3rd generation NVG compatible.
When the radio is in NVG display mode, the radio's front
display and top display emit a very low illumination
backlight to allow the user to operate the radio with the
goggles on.
CAUTION:
Remove your NVG if you operate the radio in non-
NVG compatible display mode. Wearing the NVG to
operate in non-NVG compatible display mode might
injure your eyes.
Accessory connected to the radio that is in NVG display
mode such as Display Remote Speaker Microphone
(DRSM) has its backlight always in off state.
