    Default View Key on 898


    Alright, so how long have we been able to press the View Key for a couple of seconds and get a quick menu that allows us to go directly to the screen of our choice??

    Nice feature, just wished I had known about it sooner.

    Stymie...I noticed in your post at bbc that someone answered this quiz that this View key submenu was added in 1 of the latest software upgrades ....

    It was mentioned that this came with the NMEA upgrade...(I have not upgraded to that version myself)...

    I thought I would add that info here so anyone following this thread would have the info...

    Yep, I skipped that update myself. Played with it some more today. I will like it if I can remember to use it. Pretty much automatically go to one of my three presets and toggle from them.

    Is this also true for the 798?

    When I keep my gratitude higher than my expectations I have a good day

    No for the 798c Si and 798ci Si models because they have not received the 6.420 (or newer) software update.

    For the 798ci HD Si models, I don’t know. I don’t have one of these models to check this on but will try to do so later today. Our phone and Internet lines were down yesterday so I’m a little behind in my other duties…
