When it's on Standby it blinks OFF. Otherwise you'll have to do a hard shutoff with the switch in the back. On an odd note on that very thing. I'd program my Logitech Harmony 300 learning remote and by pure accident, I've noticed that if the remote is on AUX and I'm trying to lower the volume but the remote is set for Bluray (because I've forgotten to switch the device over) it dims the LED. There's no dim function on the surround system. But the dimming lowered the blinking OFF to like you couldn't see it at all. Not just that, but the rest of the display as well. But you can brighten it too. But that was pure dumb luck on a completely different device. When it's on Standby it blinks OFF. Otherwise you'll have to do a hard shutoff with the switch in the back.

I haven't had any problem. My husband thought it wasn't working after the electricity went out but we notice when the time flashes on the screen the system isn't turned on, it should be a steady light even if the time is wrong. Is the light on the on/off knob red? If its red its on stand by. Great sound from this sytstem, we like it.

I can't answer that question right now. I do know that my unit is dark and does not emit any disturbing display light whatsoever.

There is a battery indicator on the main screen when on. The light stays on when plugged in

Change the flat little battery and ensure it has battery, if that battery is dead, it will prevent the entire unit to function. If your little battery has power, it will power up the LED display. try that, if not, it might be a bad unit.

One suggestion for Sangean if they're listening ... I have the PR-D5 ... you should have an option to keep the display lit continuously if the user wants it. (Like the 909x, which I also own).

When the parent monitor is not plugged in, the picture automatically goes black after a few minutes to save the battery (just push any button and the picture will come back on). If you have the volume up, then you will still be able to hear and the volume indicator lights on the top will still light up. When the monitor is plugged in, the picture stays on.

Yes, I'm noticing that it happens after it comes back from hibernation for me. Screen opens bright for a second, then goes dim. I suspect something with the power-saving options compromising the screen performance. Still haven't figured it out :(

Thank you all for your comments and tips. Ive just exchanged the monitor for another unit and the replacement unit does not have the same first start/powering on flickering. Btw, i tested the original unit on a ps4, 2 diferent desktops, and a laptop each with their own cable but the result were the same. In the manual it stated that flickering is "normal" due to the nature of the LED backlit, and call support only when the monitor no longer power on due to the flickering. (...?)

Yes red led on is normal. You can also disabled it, On your remote in between VOL & CH buttons is Settings, takes you to option move down to standby light on off.

Contact the manufacturer about the warranty status, and request help to identify this problem. The display may be defective and have to be replaced

My display stays lit, too. If the needed connector isn't included, why would you keep it?

yeah sounds like a dead pixel. problem is if it's just 1 you're SOL. I had this issue with my sony lcd and Customer Support said that they'll warranty it for 15 or more dead pixels. Luckily my friend run a PC Richard so I exchanged it. If you look close and its the shape of a rectangle on a grid then it's a dead pixel.

The back light stays on for only a few seconds. There is setting in the menu to control it a bit. The reading stays on for a long enough time until battery saving shuts the unit down. I have never had a problem with these issues. I does have a continuous measuring mode.

Mine does the same (and judging from review so do everyone elses). I believe this is the 730nm LEDm which is just outside of the visible spectrum, so it is mostly likely on and working, you just can't see it.

I'm at work and don't have the box in front of me, but I believe it's an LCD screen but it's backlit with LED lights. When my last LCD went on the fritz, I discovered that the screen was backlit with fluorescent tubes and one had gone bad. So the new thing is to backlight the screen with LED. Should save energy and the bulbs are more stable.

Mine does that the LED power meter, though it doesn't appear to light up at all. As the other person responded, is better to have the power meter icon in your system tray in lower right corner, easier to read, more informative, etc.
