You can control the backlight on both the keyboard and the screen using OPTION BACKLIGHT LCD and OPTION BACKLIGHT KBD Thanks — the 'OPTION BACKLIGHT LCD' setting works! Can I also read the current value? I'm also missing the screensaver option: 'OPTION BACKLIGHT LCD 0' –-> backlight off. I always use that to activate 'power-saving mode', where the backlight reactivates when a key is pressed or there is activity. This also works with the keyboard! (=0) :-) I don't know if the AI (Gemini & Claude) is just making things up, but this is what I managed to get out of it. https://github.com/shtirlic/picocalc_southbridge - internal RTC access through dedicated I2C registers, Apparently, this is also supposed to be included in BIOS 1.6? But to be honest, I don't really know any more than that.
