Want to see the 'Satellite View' like you can on the Quest etc...?

Turn i3 on holding down Left and Right buttons.
This loads 'Software Version' etc screen, allow the RAM, ROM and ASIC tests to 'pass'
Click Left button - this loads 'Vbattery' etc screen, in the lower right of the screen you will see a cross of 5 'O's. Click Left button, Right button, Scroll Wheel Up and Down, and Click Wheel button - all the 'O's will blacken out.
'Press OK for diagnostics menu' mesage will display on screen.
Click the Wheel button and 'Diagnostics' menu screen will load. First item is 'Satellite View'
(Use Wheel Scroll to hilight menu item and click Wheel button to select)
Other Diagnistics include: Shutdiwn, Stacks, Memory Statisics, Non-Vol Info, Message Banners.
Use Left button to get back to other diag screens...

Interstingly, previously my announcements weren't working (checked Volume settings, etc). So I went back into Diagnostics, and on 'Audio Test Page' (few screens later) I got no sound from tests, so restarted i3, and changed Voice Lanaguage to American, then back to British, ran 'Audio Tests' again and all worked fine..

Hope this helps... Xander
(Anyone with V8 maps and found the above useful, please message me).

Hey that's cool - just found the audio test screen and you can listen to the announcements one by one. Just need to find out how to change to Bitish voice now....

It does seem that not all the announcements are used... Make sure when you change your Language that you get the 'Processing the Voice Language Selection xx%' screen message (takes a minute or so to process each time).

(Settings > +Language > -Voice Language > American English ('Processing the Voice Language Selection xx%' screen message) > British English ('Processing the Voice Language Selection xx%' screen message)
