Are you sure this is KGS and not KTS?

Hi there,
As Don said, this is related to what kind of 
braille display you have.
If you have a brand new mPower or a Classic 
purchased after 2005, you'll have KGS cells, 
which has the plastic, curved cursor buttons.  
If you have the mPower "transplant" or if 
your Classic was purchased prior to 2005, 
you'll have Tieman cells, which has rubber 
cursor buttons.  The braille intensity item 
allows the power supply to change the voltage 
that is passed to the display module.  If you 
set the intensity to 3 or lower, the voltage 
will be reduced.  If you set it to 7 or 
above, the display will feel firm.  This 
setting does affect Tieman cells, but there 
is no significant benefit for those who has 
KGS cells (although I've noticed some 
difference on my unit).  On the KGS cells, 
however, it does allow the cell to be more 
"smooth" when you set the intensity to 3 or 
lower, but if you set the same value on an 
mPower with the Tieman cells, you'll find 
that it is more smooth and spongy.
HTH,
Joseph pddness.  I've got this information 
directly from Andy (I think he posted about 
this a couple months back).
