To increase or decrease the brightness, you can click (short press) on the screen on the brightness widgets + or – with your finger (naked or with touchscreen gloves) or click (long press) on the + or – volume button.

Increasing the brightness provides you with better readability, decreasing the brightness provides you with more autonomy (a brightness of 50% gives you almost twice the autonomy). Look at the comparison made here and the video that shows the same.

Having the screen perpendicular to your look greatly increases readability and greatly reduces the need for brightness. If your cockpit cannot be tilted, we recommend using the AIR³ Fabric Base to tilt the instrument right in front of your eyes. If you are not using an AIR³, you can also use the Fabric Base.

Thanks to the brightness widgets and buttons, you can easily adjust the brightness need according to the flight conditions. Read more details about the Display brightness widgets in the Action buttons subsection of the XCTrack Pro widgets manual 

To make a call, you can click (long press) on a pre-configured phone call widget with your finger (naked or with touchscreen gloves).
