2.3 Shutting off the AV400 and Battery saving features
To shut off the unit, press and hold the STOP/ESC/OFF button
for 3 seconds.
In the Power menu [Setup Power: Battery Operation]
there is a Power Off parameter. It is factory set to 2
minutes. Thus, if your AV400 is idle for 2 minutes, it will shut
off. This setting can be changed from one to nine minutes
or to ‘never’.
In the Power menu [Setup
Power: Battery Operation]
there is a Backlight Off parameter to save battery power
(the lighting of the screen consumes a lot of the battery
power). It is factory set to 30 seconds. That is, if there are no buttons
pressed, the screen will shut off in order to save battery life. To turn the
screen back on, just click once on any button. See section 17.5 for a
complete explanation.
