    Can the ALP LED status/warning light brightness be varied in HW2.0?

    Hi to all members,

    The professional installer, who is nearing completion of an ALP Quad w/HiFi system and an STiR + system in my car, just called me regarding the brightness of the ALP LED status/warning light that can be placed somewhere in the dashboard. He felt it was extremely bright and he wanted to know if I wanted him to put a resister in the light's electrical line. I said no, as I seem to remember reading that with the ALP HW 2.0, which I have recently purchased, has the software ability for an owner to select the brightness of the LED bulb. Is this correct?

    Can the brightness of the ALP LED status/warning bulb be owner adjustable with HW 2.0?

    If the LED bulb can be owner adjustable by a software selection, how may intensity levels are available?

    Thank you for any info you may be able to provide.

    Yes, Brightness is controlled via the setup file with a scale of 1 to 9.
