October 15, 201312 yr I don't succeed in changing the backlight for the lcd screens as i used to do in the 737. In the 737 i can go from very dark to full light and i can't do this in the 777. (sorry english is not my first language) Benard DEVEAUTOUR pmdg's 747 and 737 ngx fan!
October 15, 201312 yr Commercial Member In the 737 i can go from very dark to full light and i can't do this in the 777. The answer to your question is in the introduction manual. There is a switch on the overhead labeled "master." When the center button is in, the master overrides all settings to include the displays. Click the center button of the master switch (to turn it off the master control), and then try adjusting the displays. It would be extremely helpful for you to read the intro manual as well.

October 15, 201312 yr Kyle I don't think he meant that. I think he was saying about making the displays more like LCD's in the NGX where you can adjust the brightness into a bright blue kind of colour rather than the 777's that remain a constant black colour.

"In the 737 i can go from very dark to full light and i can't do this in the 777." I'm really not sure how else you can interpret that, particularly because he didn't once refer to the color. He wants to change the brightness. I explained how to do so. This is a common error because so many people are averse to actually reading the documentation that came with their study-level sim. I'd be surprised if I'm wrong in my interpretation/assumption. Kyle Rodgers
October 15, 201312 yr Hopefully the OP will be able to confirm what he meant. I thought considering the NGX and the 777 both use LCD screens the back light in the 777 can't be adjusted as in the NGX. The 777 displays stay at a constant black backlight where as the NGX can be adjusted to a blue/ brightness. Tony Simpson FLYING FROM EGKK, The worlds busiest single runway Airport.

It's not as obvious in this picture, but it's definitely blue.: Kyle Rodgers

October 16, 201312 yr Commercial Member i just want to lower the brightness when I fly in the night! See post #2. I answered it there: You can either lower the master, or turn the master off and lower it on the display knobs. Kyle Rodgers
