The indicator light autobright control system uses photo cells, on the pilots center panel, to monitor the light level in the cockpit. When the light level falls below a preset value, the system will automatically override the Indicator Light Selector, if in the DIM position, and provide maximum brightness for the indicator lights. 2, record 1, English, - auto%2Dbright%20control%20system
