Keyboard Option; Backlight Timeout; Turnoff Timeout - Husky MP2500 Manual

11.4 Keyboard option

The Keyboard option displays the following:
Move the highlight to the options you want to change by using the I or J
keys, then adjust the displayed value by pressing the G or H keys. When
you have finished, press E to accept the changes or C to cancel them.

11.4.1 Backlight timeout

This value controls how long the optional backlight will stay turned on, if a
user does not press any keys. You can set it to between 1 and 5 minutes, or
disable it entirely. The default is 2 minutes.
To improve battery life, leave this feature enabled and set the timeout to the
lowest value acceptable to the user (such as 1 or 2 seconds).
If the backlight is turned off by a timeout, it turns on again as soon as the
user presses a key. This timeout is mainly provided to help save battery
power when a user forgets to turn the backlight off. (To improve battery life
still further, you can configure the backlight not to resume automatically -
see section 10.1.5.)

11.4.2 Turnoff timeout

This value controls how long the MP2500 will stay turned on, if a user does
not press any keys and communications is not active. You can set it to
between 2 and 60 minutes, or disable it entirely. The default is 5 minutes.
This timeout is mainly provided to help save battery power when a user
forgets to turn off! Remember that a user can normally turn on again and
continue exactly where they left off.
To improve battery life, set the timeout to the lowest value acceptable to the
user.
