Here's a general question I'd like answered. I've got the software and licensing done. Cable arrives tomorrow. How much time should I budget to backup everything and make two or three changes? It's a 2017 Limited if that matters. Obviously it depends on your skills but generally speaking.

Is there a way to disable the lights when opening doors or locking/unlocking vehicle. I want a stealth mode when I’m at a camping ground so I don’t annoy everyone.

If you're brand new to using it, I am going to guess about a half hour to do the first hookup, poke around a bit and download the as built files.

Make sure your battery is fully charged before you start.

Yes. Someone else used police dark car mode for the same reason.

Powerpoint timeout extended to 1 1/2 hours
What is the "5 turn signal flash"? Looking at the settings..
0-3 = 1 flash
4-5 = 2 flashes
A,B = 5 flashes

Does that mean for every 'blink', it will blink 2 times, or 5 times, etc?

I am pretty sure that if you just move the turn signal indicator a little (not actually push it for steady blink until you turn), how many times the signal will blink. Default, I think is 2

Thanks! That makes a lot more sense.
