One thing we have done to reduce unwanted light levels at the helm at night is to drape or tape black mesh fabric over the offending instruments or devices. In some cases, we have doubled the fabric over. We can still read the display, but light levels are reduced significantly. Cheap, simple, and is easily attached and removed.

I run Nobeltec in night mode at it's lowest intensity and it's still too bright. I tape a piece of red stage lighting gel over the monitor and it's fine. ____________________________________________________________ Right on time.
