neilrr010 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Is it possible to modify the little speed readout on the command display to indicate the speed in miles per hour (MPH)? The vehicle's speed unit is configured to miles per hour (mph) in the settings, and the primary display accurately reflects this option. However, I am encountering difficulty modifying the secondary display located at the bottom. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doncaster34 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 According to legal regulations, it is required for the display to indicate both miles per hour (MPH) and kilometres per hour (KMH). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilrr010 Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 I understand now; I had not considered that aspect. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyb44 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 The STAR system has the capability to modify the display settings to include the temperature information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilrr010 Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 The ambient temperature outside - I find myself repeatedly searching for this information, just to realise that it is not displayed in any available sources. Is it possible to do this task with an iCarsoft unit, or is it just achievable via the STAR job? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyb44 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 One option is to configure one of the panels to display a digital readout of either the speed or the temperature. One alternative or the other. The item may be found inside the established menu. The lower portion of the display only shows the STAR information.

Ken_Lion Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 It is advisable to use caution while modifying settings inside the menu interface. I successfully changed the display language of my dashboard to Italian, after encountering difficulties in reverting it back to English.

MDMH757 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 According to legal principles, it is necessary to demonstrate both elements, but not necessarily in a permanent manner. However, it seems that MB also interpreted the regulations in a same manner as you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenkeyte Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 In fact, the temperature display was not shown in the centre speedometer section of some automobile models, such as the R171 SLK, due to an erroneous interpretation of a law by Mercedes-Benz (MB) in the past, leading to the implementation of a UK Mode option. The prevailing regulation stipulates that the automobile must possess the ability to exhibit both miles per hour (mph) and kilometres per hour (kph), but not necessarily concurrently. The UK mode of my device was set to "uncoded" in order to provide temperature readings instead of speed measurements, which proves to be advantageous during winter as it serves as an indicator for potential frost conditions.

stevenkeyte Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Please refer to my previous blogs on the UK mode. However, by accessing the settings and switching to the metric system, the speed limits and cruise control functions will be shown in kilometres per hour (kph), potentially eliminating the need for mental calculations to translate your speed.
