Reverse Camera without Radio/COmmand Center on?
Is there a way to get the reverse camera to operate without the "command center" on?
A bit annoying to have to turn that on when reversing...
Am I missing something?

Have you tried not turning it off, but instead just muting it and going to the clock in "Settings" so it's not too distracting. I believe there is an option for "Display Off" in that same menu area, but I haven't tested to see if the camera still works in that scenario. Is there a particular reason to turn it completely off?

Can try that - its just that all other cars I have owned, if you are reversing - regardless of what is on/off in the car - you want to see what is behind you...
Not sure I understand the options in the system menu that says "rear camera on in reverse"
Why and when else would you want it on or off?
I have always gotten into the habit of turning everything off in the car when I turn the car off so on start up there is less of a load on everything.
Maybe it is just me...

I'm not sure about that "rear camera" option either. I've only had mine a little over a week so I'm still exploring all the options.

OK I will try it out - and I apologize, the plan was to sit down over a nice glass of Bourbon and read all of my manuals etc. and see what is what - but with kids/work and schedules...you know how that go's.
