Jfizzle Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I have engraved light switches. The brightness seems to vary across some of them. Sometimes it is noticeable with separate switches on the same wall one will be a nice bright readable blue and the one next to it not so much. Is there a best-practice for dialing in the brightness level? I suspect the differences are related to the individual switches auto-adjusting brightness level rather than this being a manufacturing defect in the engravings, although I have searched the forums and found various posts related to that being an issue for some people.

I believe this issue has been mostly resolved in the latest update, 3.2.2, by using the light sensor in one switch or keypad as the basis for backlight intensity across several switches or keypads in a group. msgreenf and Jfizzle 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 That is part of it but you also want consistent backlighting profiles configured Jfizzle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggzlot Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Also make sure they were manufactured around the same time. They made some hardware adjustments in 2017 and backlighting was impacted msgreenf and Jfizzle 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made some hardware adjustments in 2017 and backlighting was impacted Thanks everyone, I’ll have someone remote in and check my settings / profiles. My switches were installed in 2014 so if there’s a hardware limitation it is what it is. I ordered the engraved covers in 2021 (I move slowly…) and can see these have the darker colored sensor cover fwiw. msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
