|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Turns the LED screen on and off
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```sig
|
|||
|
led.enable(false);
|
|||

```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Parameters
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* ``on`` is a [boolean](/reference/types/boolean) that defines the on/off state of the screen
|
|||
|
|

|
### Example: Turning off the screen
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This program turns off the screen when pressing button ``B``
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```typescript
|
|||
|
input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
|
|||
|
led.enable(false)
|
|||
|
});
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Pins: P3, P4, P6, P7, P9, P10
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
These pins are coupled to the LED matrix display, and also it’s associated ambient light sensing mode.
|
|||
|
To disable the display driver feature (which will automatically disable the light sensing feature) call the DAL function ``led.enable(false)``.
|
|||
|
To turn the display driver back on again later, call ``led.enable(true)``.
