Backlight Method

This member of Class WaveLinkTerminal is supported on: iOS, DOS, Palm

The Backlight Method sets or returns the inactivity time for the backlight of the device.

Syntax

public int Backlight()
public void Backlight(int newBacklight)

Parameters

newBacklight

Number of seconds of inactivity before the display backlight turns off

Returns

The backlight timeout value for the current device

Remarks

To improve network efficiency, the terminal settings within the WaveLinkTerminal object are only set when the object is first created.

To return the most current information you must first use the ReadTerminalInfo Method, which updates the WaveLinkTerminal object with the latest device settings, before making a call to any other methods.

If the backlight timeout value is more than the key timeout value, the device completely powers down before the backlight is ever deactivated.
