Display Setup Menu
When you select DISPLAY SETUP from the Setup menu, you get these settings:

Auto Scroll

Auto Scroll activates each of the enabled display screens in sequence. By default,
the Auto Scroll is disabled. Use the arrow buttons to specify the number of seconds
that each screen is displayed before it flips to the next display screen, then press
the round button to set the value. Any screens that have been disabled will not
appear when Auto Scroll is enabled. Set the numeric value to zero (the default
value) to disable auto scrolling.

Contrast

To change the contrast of the front panel’s display, select CONTRAST. Press an
arrow button once, and the display screen’s contrast slowly changes. Press an
arrow button to stop the process. Press the round button when you are satisfied
with the contrast level.
NOTE
Contrast can be adjusted from any screen by holding down the round button for more than ten seconds.
Release the round button when the contrast is at a suitable level.

Backlight Timeout

This setting changes the amount of time the front panel’s backlight stays on when
the front panel is idle. The backlight has a limited lifespan; to prolong it, you
should only have back-lighting on when you are actively using the front panel.
Select BACKLIGHT TIMEOUT, then use the front panel’s buttons to change the
amount of time in seconds that the backlight stays on after a button is pressed.

Update Rate

The update rate specifies how frequently data on the display screen is refreshed.
You may find the values are being updated too frequently, or that the data shown
on screen lags too far behind the actual values. The default update rate is four
seconds; use the front panel’s buttons to change the update rate to suit your needs.
