    OBC question.. how to show non 24 hour time format and metric units?

    So is there any way to program the OBC to how regular time format (4:30pm) instead of the 24 hour time format (1630UHR) and keep metric units for temperature and the fueling?

    Yes, there is, I just don't know how to do it. I have my battery unplugged so frequently I don't bother with anything but the time. Did you try the search function? There is a big thead somewhere with all kinds of interesting facts/tips/tricks regarding the obc.

        I searched the archives and I read that big OBC thread and didn't get an answer so that is why I was hoping someone would know how to do it.

          pull the obc. there is a slotted knob on the back, with settings for:

          24 hour format, degrees in C
          12 hour format, degrees in C
          12 hour format, degrees in F

          Sadly, I prefer 24 hour format with F and there is no setting for that.
