Auto Backlight OFF (in both cases powered by battery pack and via Cradle/Battery
charger)
The Control Panel can be used to set up whether or not the auto backlight off function is used and
the waiting time until when the auto backlight off function activates. The auto backlight off
function is effect for both when the power is provided by an external power source and when it is
provided by lithium-ion battery pack.
• If the terminal is left over in idle state - absolutely no key or touch panel inputting - with the
power being turned on, the backlight will be automatically turned off to save energy.
• When the terminal is in the auto backlight off state, a press of key or a touching on the touch
panel will disable the auto backlight off function to resume the brightness.
• While the power is being provided by lithium-ion battery pack and both the auto dimming
function and the auto backlight off function have been set enabled, either one of the functions
with preset time period shorter than the other will have the priority. The default is “Enable the
auto backlight off function” and “5 minutes for the waiting time” until when the auto backlight
off function activates.
Backlight brightness control by thermal sensor (in both cases powered by battery pack and
via Cradle/Battery charger)
When the thermal censer detects high temperature of the terminal, brightness of Backlight will be
restricted automatically.
• There are two kinds of restrictions. The first one is to restrict steps of brightness control (9
steps) to up to 8 steps. The second one is to restrict steps of brightness control up to 6 steps.
• If the brightness of normal condition or dimmed brightness set by Automatic Backlight
Dimmer (only battery operation) is set greater than brightness which is beyond the range of
the restricted steps, brightness will be restricted automatically to the inside of the restricted
range. However, when the temperature drops and restriction is released, brightness will
recover to the normal setting level automatically.
• It is possible to confirm if the restriction is effective or not by checking the following registry.
[ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\CM7200F1 ]
DispSensorLevel : DWORD (0: Normal, 1, 2)
Rotating Display
The rotate display function for rotating the screen at 180 degree is supported. When the screen is
rotated, the touch panel coordinates system rotates in unison.
• The Common Device Control Library can be used to set up this display rotation feature in
application.
• ChangeDisplaySettingEx() API function can be used to set up this display rotation feature
in application.
See Microsoft Help for details about ExtEscape() and ChangeDisplaySettingEx() API
functions.
