Adjusting display properties

You can change several properties of the Velo 500 screen to
improve visibility in different lighting conditions. This section
explains how to adjust the contrast, set the screen to display either
4 or 16 shades of gray, and use the backlight so you can work
when there is not enough ambient light available.
To adjust the contrast
On the keyboard, simultaneously press
until the display is at the desired contrast.
Change the Gray Scale settings to improve performance or display

better at 16 shades of gray; however, overall performance is faster
when the display is set to 4 shades of gray.
