  1. (Optional) To configure the properties, click System Design.
  1. In the project tree, select the Portable 7" Touch Screen V2 object.
  1. View and change the properties in the Properties pane.

    2. Modifiable properties include:

    Backlight Level—Use the up or down arrows to set the light level of the backlight. You can change the brightness of the backlight with this option by percentage, so 100% is On at full brightness and 0% is Off. Click Set to save.

    WiFi Signal Strength—If using Wi-Fi, shows you the strength of your wireless signal.

    Notes: (1) Video Intercom. Although this device supports b/g/n, 802.11b is not supported for Video Intercom use. (2) Wireless-n is recommended for Video Intercom. See “Wireless Network Limitations” below.

    Enable Camera—Check to use the camera with this device for video intercom.

    Conservative AEC (Acoustic Echo Cancellation)—When selected, this can reduce excessive feedback, squealing, or other audio interference during intercom use. This setting does not reduce feedback noise caused by two touch screens being too close to each other. Use this option if other measures (such as increasing intercom distances and reducing volume) have not sufficiently reduced feedback.
