Automatic Brightness Control
When the Thor VM3 is equipped with an outdoor display, automatic brightness control can be enabled. When
enabled, display brightness is based on ambient light detected by the ambient light sensor, located near the top right of
the display. The default is disabled. To enable, check the Enable automatic brightness control checkbox and spec-
ify the thresholds for display backlight transition.
When enabled, the thresholds can be entered for display brightness transitions.
• When a low level of ambient light is detected, the display backlight is set to low level.
• When the ambient light exceeds the threshold specified in Low to medium light level (%), the display backlight is
automatically increased to a medium level.
• When the ambient light exceeds the threshold specified in Medium to high light level (%), the display backlight is
automatically increased to a high level.
• Likewise if the Thor VM3 is returned to a lower ambient light area, the display backlight automatically transitions to
the appropriate lower display backlight level.
