This method is only available for 7-B Rev3.2, 7-C Rev3.3 or above
Connect the Raspberry Pi:
Perform the following command on the Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+ terminal to control the backlight brightness:
gpio -g pwm 18 1024 gpio -g mode 18 pwm gpio pwmc 1000 gpio -g pwm 18 X
(The value of X should be between 0 and 1024)
In Raspberry Pi 4B, you need to update the wiringPi GPIO library (Raspberry Pi needs to connect to the Internet):
cd /tmp wget https://project-downloads.drogon.net/wiringpi-latest.deb sudo dpkg -i -B wiringpi-latest.deb
Execute the following command to control the backlight brightness:
gpio -g pwm 18 1024 gpio -g mode 18 pwm gpio pwmc 1000 gpio -g pwm 18 X
(The value of X should be between 0 and 1024)
