Turn off the backlight in Windows CE? RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have a Windows CE 5.0 based device. the problem is : the Backlight power off settings under "Control Panel\Display" section does not work. the backlight does not turn off nowise!
    Maybe this helps:
    In the registry there's no key/value named : "BKL" but in any sample code and tutorial i've seen before Backlight's device name was "BKL1:".
    what's the matter?

  • This sounds like it is not a development issue, but a device issue. You should contact your OEM's support directly.

  • hello,

    I agreed with PaulH. I will move this one to off-topic.
    Thanks for your understanding.
