cctk.exe --keyboardillumination=auto does not work on the E6420
I updated to the current version of 2.0.0, A00 but niether Auto or On work they both return the same thing
cctk --keyboardillumination=auto
The option 'keyboardillumination' is not available or cannot be configured
through software.

The following are the cctk commands for each of the operations:
1. Setting keyboard illumination off
cctk.exe --keyboardillumination=off
2. Setting keyboard illumination to level 25%
cctk.exe --token=0x02EA
3. Setting keyboard illumination to level 50%
cctk.exe --token=0x02EB
4. Setting keyboard illumination to level 75%
cctk.exe --token=0x02EC
5. Setting keyboard illumination to level 100%
cctk.exe --token=0x02F6
Let me know if you need something else that isn't specified above.
Thanks,
Warren

This is sort of an old thread but I was curious if the token documentation was ever released?

No, the plan is to ensure that the tools (CCTK, OMCI, etc.) have the tokens properly implemented so that you don't have to use an undocumented token. :)

Ok, thanks Warren. I just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed some documentation because I couldn't find this anywhere.

Hi Stevendonato,
Please refer this link for installing DCC/CCTK in Linux (RHEL) platforms.
Keyboard backlight token can be set to enabled by using command "cctk --keyboardillumination=25" for minimum illumination or "cctk --keyboardillumination=100" for the max illumination.
To get more information on the possible values of this token run command "cctk -h --keyboardillumination"
thanks,
Karthik.C

The question was how to keep the keyboard backlight on permenently. Someone said the only closest thing to this solution was, to somehow set the timer value to 25 min. If this is the only solution how do you do this?
Seems to be an obvious request of users. I do not see how the Dell developers missed this option.
thank you
steve

liNK POINTS TO WRONG WEBPAGE. This webpage has to do with diagnostics only and nothing to do with installing the toolkit

Hi Stevedonato,
The value 25 is not in minutes, it is denoting the illumination/brightness of the Keyboard Backlight in percentage.
Please use this command to set the Keyboard Backlight to ON permanently "cctk --keyboardillumination=on"
Earlier link is for installation of CCTK in Rhel OS.
