`$ pi-backlight 200`
And of corse, sleep mode:
`$ pi-backlight -s`
Sleep mode will turn off the display backlight until you push \
You can also use the `-up` and `-down` option:
`$ pi-backlight -u` Or:
`$ pi-backlight -up` To adjust backlight highter,
And to adjust backlight down:
`$ pi-backlight -d` Or:
`$ pi-backlight -down` To adjust backlight lower.
