3.5.2 Display Brightness
As it arrives from the factory, the GNC 255 automatically adjusts its display
brightness for the current lighting conditions. A small sensor on the display
is used for this function. A manual adjustment is available for controlling the
brightness level of the display as an offset from the “normal” or zero position.
The limits of the adjustment range are: -10 (Low Display Intensity) and 100
(High Display Intensity). A value above zero means brighter than normal and a
value below zero means darker than normal. The range can be adjusted by using
the SMALL knob to adjust the value.
The GNC 255 will either control dimming based on the photocell or the
lighting bus. This is set in configuration mode during installation and is not
selectable by the pilot.
