ABSTRACT:
A display dimming circuit is disclosed which provides a coordinated automatic display brightness level adjustment for a plurality of instruments associated within the same general region. Its use in an aircraft cockpit, for example, allows the left, or captain's instruments, to be coordinated to be responsive to the ambient light in that region of the cockpit and the co-pilot's bank of instruments, or right region, of the aircraft is separately coordinated such that both regions exhibit appropriate brightness levels on all instruments. In this manner, gas discharge displays, for example, are installed adjacent cathode ray tube displays or vacuum fluorescent displays and all are effectively maintained at an appropriate lighting level.
