Can you adjust the computer monitor brightness with this keyboard?

No, it has a button for the keyboard ,but nothing happens when you push it. Maybe if I knew more about computers I could adjust the monitor from the keyboard. There were no direction for using this function in the box.

The brightness settings haven't worked with my computer/monitor. But the volume keys do work.

There is a function key on both sides of the keyboard on the bottom, and controls on the F Keys at the top to adjust screen brightness, volume, and keyboard back light. You can make it as bright as you want, and turn it off completely.

Caps Lock ON and Caps Lock OFF will appear on your monitor....not the best solution, I would prefer a light on the keyboard, but it does work.

Yes, the keyboard is backlit, with the option to adjust the brightness of the backlight. You can turn it off, or have it on any of 3 brightness settings.

There is a back lighting option that you can enable or disable with a keyboard shortcut. When it's enabled, the lighting is quite bright and effective -- I found it to work really well for using the laptop in the dark.

Yes it is...You can also have it adjusted as such that the keyboard backlits compared to the light in the room..for example darker room more light keyboard automatically...

The method this is done is by using the Graphic Card/ Computer to adjust the brightness, ala Apple Cinema Display which requires the computer to adjust. I think the setup is similar to Apple Cinema Display with panel type and control board.

The distance between the keyboard and monitor is about 11". As for changing the dist. there are 2 grooves that run down the monitor stand but I am not certain how to adjust it - but there must be a way to do it.

I have this laptop and this is the first time I checked if I could actually do that. I was only able to find the option to change the brightness but not the color. I do not think there's a way.

The keyboard lights up when the laptop is opened. There does not appear to be a way (that I can find) to control this independently.

Only the contrast of the display (the darkness of the display's lettering) can be changed. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a bright, backlit background for the letters. By pressing the MISC key to open the SETUP & MISC screen, you can use the CURSOR arrow keys [^] to select CONTRAST on the list, then use the VALUE keys [+,-] to set the contrast between "1" and "10", with "10" providing the greatest contrast. That's all that can be changed on the display, lighting-wise.

Yes, if you go to the settings icon, you can access a menu which allows you to set the brightness of the display.

The Brightness is adjustable from the menu, if you load the software. I have adjusted mine to full brightness

Yes you can, either by turning it down using the Hot keys on the keyboard itself (F keys, from 100% to 0%) or by installing the SetPoing software and configuring the setting to OFF.

I have been told that your can turn on the Light sensor which controls backlighting by pressing Fn+A to on/off AI light sensor. Have to dig my keyboard out to try it tomorrow. Good luck

Yes, you have off, 3 levels of brightness and a cycle mode which goes basically over the course of several seconds goes from bright to dark and back to bright. A cool party trick, not so much useful in actual use. Basically you have 5 levels to go through, including off. I don't recommend off though, the dimmest setting suffices if you are contemplating night use. There is no bleeding of light from under the keys so it is not distracting. Even the medium level isn't too bad, though it is definitely brighter. The brightest mode is VERY bright, but not blindingly so. The LED's are very even and make it seem like the letters are floating :) I use my keyboard mainly in low-light, by the way. -edit- No problems entering BIOS.

Have you tried pressing the "FN" and the F12 anf F11 buttons which control the keyboards brightness?
