4.2 SETTING THE DISPLAY DURATION (TIMER FUNCTION)

function.
To do this, go to the cong SETTINGS menu via „C“.

Your hymn board is equipped with a sensor and automatic brightness adjustment, which regulates itself depen-
ding on the incidence of light on the display. In automatic mode, EACH of the displays may adjust itself separate-

To do this, switch the automatic to OFF and move the slider to the RIGHT to higher the brightness or to the
LEFT to lower the brightness. To reactivate the internal brightness sensor of the hymn boards, switch the auto-
matic function to OFF.
