brighter the display for a given increase in the input level. This field has a range of 0 (zero) to 99, with
the default set to 50.

backlight mode, so the mode must be changed on the Display
Backlight configuration page. If the lighting mode is AUTO,
then the key lighting parameters can be edited on this page.
