LC DISPLAY BACKLIGHT & CONTRAST
The 9850 features a white LED Backlit Liquid Crystal Display. The LED Backlight is one of the highest power
drain devices in the 9850. The Backlight can be set to turn itself off automatically after a user sepcified time.
Once off, the Backlight will turn back on by pushing any key (except POWER ). The first key press, no matter
which key it is, will be ignored, except for turning the Backlight on. Then key function is restored. The Backlight
can also be set to turn back on when the active channel scale changes its reading (goes in motion). There are 3
levels of brightness with a setting of 0 being another way to turn it off. AC or DC supply powered 9850’s can
and should choose to leave the backlight on at full (3) brightness. In battery powered units, battery life can be
extended through the use of the power down modes and reduced brightness settings.
1) Press SETUP , DISPLAY , [3] . The BACKLIGHT menu
appears. Select the desired on time from 2-6. Off (1) is
usually not desired as this is a transmissive display and has
poor contrast without a backlight. On AC Powered units,
choice 6, always on, is the preferred choice.
2) Press [7] to change the Light on Motion setting from OFF
to ON. When ON, the backlight will turn back on whenever
the current scale channel changes its reading. However set-
ting Light on Motion On may prevent the backlight from
ever turning off, thus decreasing battery life in battery
powered units.
3) Press ESC to backup to the SCALE DISPLAY SETUP
menu. Press [4] to change the backlight brightness level.
A setting of 0 turns off the backlight. 4 is the brightest. Set
the brightness level as low as is useful in your environment.
Press ENTER to set your brightness choice.
