Auto-Activation of Cameras (GPS)?

Trying to figure out how to set this up so the cameras auto-enable when I get near my garage. Not sure I'll love it, but I'd like to try it.

Whenever I get to the menu in the MBUX, I get "No Activation Positions Available". Not sure why. See pic, below.

Anyone know how to configure this?

Thanks,
AJ

You get no Activation position available because you haven't stored one yet


That part of the menu you are showing are where your previously stored position are available for you to edit or delete (in case you don't want those GPS position triggering the camera view anymore).
When you want to store the position (switching to CAMERA VIEW automatically)
Press the camera button on the bottom of your display when close to where you want to mark the position.
The camera view will be activated and it will show in your display.
At this point you have several options to change your viewing modes.
The LAST selection is the one that marks the GPS position to summon your Camera view automatically when you physically arrive at the location (in this case near your garage)
I'm away from my car and I couldn't take any pics but I hope I was clear enough.
Cheers
