2013 SL550 Command System Not Working

I left for a 6 week vacation and when I returned yesterday and started up the SL 550, the screen only showed a digital readout of the time. No backup camera or other functions. The car has 25k miles on it. Is there a way to restart the Command system? Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated.

First, the automatic garage door opener seemed to find itself so that was up and running. Then while driving, I decided to try to turn on the radio. Up it came along with subheadings for other systems. I turned the dial over to the setting for the camera, seats, etc and pushed the button. Up they came. Perhaps sitting in the garage for 7 weeks caused some small battery to run down and it recharged as the car was driven a bit.
