Each subsequent press of the backlight key decreases the level of illumination. Once the backlight is decreased to the “off” condition, the next press of the [DIM] key returns the backlight to high.

Pressing this key will activate the unique digital voltmeter feature for fast verification of input DC voltage to your RAY210.

To activate the voltmeter, press [VOLT] key. The display will then show the input DC voltage for five seconds, then will return to previous operation.
