Hello, So far I love my Gryphon! But since I switched out the radio for the Avic-700 the clock is small everywhere except for the map, which is only because I modified the code. Anyways, is it possible to replace one of the displays on the Gryphon to be a clock??

Thanks for any help!

I thought so, I wasn't sure how hard it would be to add a clock in to the code the Gryphon runs on, maybe this could be a custom tune?:D

That's actually an interesting idea. The display could technically support 4 digits (consider RPM) and since the 4th digit would never be wider than a "1" then the colon should fit too.

The problem is this... I am not certain just how accurate the timer is in the processor, at least over LONG periods of time. I'd be afraid that when the unit goes to sleep during key off, it might upset the accuracy.

I will put it on the list and if it's possible, I'd be happy to add it. :thumbsup:

That would be awesome!:woot: I wouldn't mind re-setting it once and a while haha, it sure beats trying to read the tiny clock on the AVIC.

Very true, especially at certain parts of the day. I've given up on wondering what time it is in my truck now because of that clock. It's actually the only thing I miss about the factory HU.

Yeah same here, I modded the map screen so the clock is like half an inch big and white with black border but when just listening to music, forget it
