Automatic switch-off
[Timeout]
The M208 has an automatic
switch-off feature that extends the
working life of the batteries. The
M208 is switched on using an
integrated movement sensor,
which recognises each movement
of the remote control and returns it
to the operating mode that was
active before the automatic switch-
off. In a very quiet room, the
mechanics of the sensor are
audible, but this does not indicate
a fault.
Through the Timeout Menu, you
define the length of time from the
last time a button was pressed or
the last time the unit was moved,
until the automatic switch-off. This
timeout can be set to one of three
values, 3, 6 or 10 seconds.

The Timeout Menu does not
define the timeout for the
backlighting. This is fixed and
cannot be changed.
Ambient light
[Amb. Light]
The brightness sensor is located
at the lower end of the remote
control, below the 0 button.
Using the Amb. Light function,
you can define at which ambient
brightness level the blue
backlighting should be switched
on. As well as the three brightness
levels, the sensor can be
deactivated through the Off
setting. With the Off setting, the
backlighting is switched on each
time a button is pressed whatever
the level of ambient brightness.
OFF: deactivated
Low: dark
Medium: semi-dark
High: bright
The brighter the ambient
brightness setting, the
shorter the working life of the
batteries. The setting Off
results in the shortest
working life.
