Set up Brightness

  1. Open Settings (cog icon) → Brightness.
  2. Turn on Change brightness automatically.
  3. Set the Daytime level with the slider (for example 100%), and choose when daytime starts:
    • Dawn: at dawn for the facility's location. The page shows today's time, for example "Today at 4:42 am".
    • Staffed Hours: relative to the facility's staffed hours. Choose when under Starts, for example At opening.
    • At a set time: at the time you choose under Starts at.
  4. Set the Night-time level (for example 75%), and choose when night-time starts: Nightfall, Staffed Hours or At a set time.
  5. Click Save changes.

Staffed Hours come from Facility & System Configuration; on holidays, holiday hours are used. See How hours are used.

How it works with each screen

Brightness automation changes each screen's Display brightness setting in its Display settings. Times are in the facility's time zone.

Brightness only changes how bright the picture is. To turn displays on and off, use Display Automations.
