1.7 DISPLAY BACKLIGHTING

Backlighting of the PFD and MFD, and Audio Panel keys can be adjusted automatically or manually. The
automatic setting (default) uses photocells to adjust for ambient lighting conditions. Photocell calibration curves
are pre-configured to optimize display appearance through a broad range of cockpit lighting conditions. In
normal display mode, backlighting can only be adjusted from the PFD. In Reversionary Mode, it can be adjusted
from the remaining display(s).
Adjusting display backlighting manually:
1) Press the PFD MENU Key to display the PFD Setup Menu. 'AUTO' is now highlighted next to 'PFD DSPL'. No
other window can be displayed on the PFD while the PFD Setup Menu is displayed. Pressing the MENU Key
while any other PFD window is displayed does not display the PFD Setup Menu.
2) Turn the small FMS Knob to select 'MANUAL' and press the ENT Key. The intensity value is now highlighted.
3) Use the FMS Knob to enter the desired backlighting then press the ENT Key.
4) Turn the large FMS Knob to highlight 'AUTO' next to 'MFD DSPL' and repeat steps 2-4.
