2. Backlite saver

This function automatically turns off the display backlight
when the power has been left on for a certain time without
any operations being performed.
Like any fluorescent light, the backlight of the QY700 has
a finite lifespan. Turning the unit off when it will not be
used for an extended time will extend its life as long as
possible. However there may be times when the unit will be
left on and unused for an extended time. In such cases, you
can set Backlite Saver so that the backlight will automati-
cally turn off when the specified time elapses, to conserve
the lifespan of the backlight.
