      Hello, I have a question about the backlight.
      In the night when I move the watch it becomes very bright. Can I influence that turns on the clock at night only by pressing a button.
      I have never noticed this so extrem.
      Where there a change in the new Firmware?

        You can start enabling the “do not disturb mode” to dim the screen (and backlight).
        I’m not sure if backlight will be switched to “toggle” (mine is always set to manual) I suppose you have to change its option

        Do you have standby light set to “on” ?
        I suppose you have a spartan, correct ?

        Maybe you’ve lost some settings and BL value has been set to 100%

          Hi,
          yes it is a spartan.
          “do not disturb” is on.
          Standby is on. BL set to 25%.
          Modus is automatic.

          In the night if i not move the watch the backlight off.
          But if i move the watch, the backlight is on and disruptive bright.
          I’ve never noticed that before.

            that’s strange.
            Have you tried a soft reset ?

              Yes Softreset was done.
              Is it right that the backlight of the watch should not be on (not disturb mode) since i pull a button?

                DND mode dim the backlight, but if you turn it on it should works

                  I found my error. Standby Mode must set to off. Then the backlight is almost off at night.
                  Thanks
