burner Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Is there a way to get any of the F-series units to output the navigation to an external screen while still having radio controls on it unit itself? I searched the forums for quite a while and can't find anything concrete. Any help would be appreciated! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terron Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 that feature is not available and probably couldn't be hacked either; the vid output mimics only what is on the Avic's screen.. its not zonable Quote Link to post Share on other sites
burner Posted December 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Thats what I figured...So in theory, you could output nav to an external screen but it would display on both, correct? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tyler Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 I cant confirm this but I heard you cant even display the gps map on an external screen. If you had an external screen hooked up to the f-series you would only be able to view dvd's or whatever is playing in A/V. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tyler Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 It just puzzles me that these $1200 units dont have the simple features like Dual zoneing and RDS, where as cheap $300 units do have it. Sure I can live without either but you would think these things would be standard with such an expensive unit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
