I have purchased a used sailboat with an E-Series MFD, auto pilot and wind instruments. (non-hybrid) I am new to using these three instruments and have noted that at night, I must use a flashlight to see the buttons built into them. I located a post dated 1-22-16 by Chuck (moderator) indicating that all instruments since 2000 have backlights but I have tried to determine exactly how to turn them on or off or adjust the brightness on the buttons but cannot figure it out. I think this is newer than 2000. I CAN adjust the brightness of the screen, but not the buttons. Can anybody offer instructions on how to do this, as I can't imagine they are malfunctioning--my guess is this is new operator oversight/error. Photo of box found on boat is included, but the photo does not show the main MFD. Another photo of it is included as well.
Thanks for any assistance.
