Command line call
Call parameters
A parameter can be specified for the command line call of the "SetBrightness" program.
Note
In contrast to the graphical interface, the minimum value is set to 0% in command line mode.
In this case, the backlighting is switched off. By pressing an input device, for example, a
touch screen or keyboard, the display is switched on again with 100% brightness value. The
first input event, for example, a mouse click, is discarded in this case to avoid an
unintentional incorrect operation.
[VALUE] parameter

Explanation
0 to 100
Brightness in percent
Example of command line call:
setbrightness.exe 50
sets the brightness to 50%.
Suppression of batch process window
With a command line call, a black Windows output window of the batch process is displayed
briefly.
To suppress the Windows output window, start the "SetBrightness.exe program via the
following example source code in C# syntax:
var process = new Process
{
StartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
{
FileName = "SetBrightness.exe",
Arguments = "[number]", // [number] Value (0 -100)
WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
}
};
process.Start();
