Daktronics DataTime Outdoor LED Time & Temperature Displays - Manual (Page 42)

Dimming
Adjust the dimming level of the Time & Temp display in two ways. A temperature/light
sensor, mounted near the display, detects the level of ambient light at the display location
and dims the display's LEDs accordingly. This function is known as automatic dimming.
When the manual dimming function is selected, the LEDs remain at the same level of
brightness, regardless of the level of light detected at the display.
To select either of these functions, press <DIMMING>. The current setting is shown on the
bottom line of the LCD.
