This section covers your scanners general settings.
Setting and Using the Backlight
The LCD has a backlight that can be set to green or red with three levels of
intensity for each color plus OFF.
To make your selection, press [VOL]. Each time you press the control, the
backlight cycles in the following order.
OFF — Low Intensity Green — Medium Intensity Green — High Intensity Green —
Low Intensity Red — Medium Intensity Red — High Intensity Red
When you stop at the desired level, the scanner remembers your setting the next
time you turn on the scanner.
You can also set the backlight using the menu.
Setting the Dimmer
If you connect the orange wire to a wire in your car that changes state when you
turn on the headlights, the scanner can automatically dim the display when you
turn on the headlights.
Tapping [VOL] overrides the menu setting and cycles through all backlight
settings.
