Home layouts

The Home tab is the first thing you see on the Habitation dashboard. It starts from a ready-made arrangement, and you can rearrange it card by card.

How Home starts out​

The Habitation Home screen starts as Power Central: a power-flow diagram at the centre, battery and tank dials down one side, climate controls down the other. There is a dial for every tank your system can read, whatever it holds: fresh, grey and black water, diesel, petrol or LPG.

The Cab dashboard's Home screen pairs your engine dials with the navigation map, with the map taking the full height of the screen. With no engine adapter fitted, a van with a GPS source shows a speedometer on its own; with neither there are no dials to show, so the map takes the full width as well.

Making it your own​

There is no longer a list of layouts to choose from in Settings, and Split View has gone. Instead, both Home screens are arranged the same way as any other tab: turn on Design Mode and move, resize, remove or add cards until Home looks the way you want. Reset puts it back to how it started.

If you had picked Split View

A system that was set to Split View starts again from Power Central. Rearrange it in Design Mode if you would like it back the way it was.

Some dealers provide their own bespoke homepage. If you bought through one of them, Home starts from their layout instead, and you can rearrange it like any other. A dealer that supplied the screens themselves may instead fix the design of every page; then the Design Mode button does not appear, and the screens stay as your dealer set them.

Choosing what appears on Home​

You decide which devices show up on the Home screen, and where. Open Settings, choose the Devices tab, and tap the cog at the end of the device's row. Heaters, lights, air conditioners and the van level each offer two settings, one for the Habitation Home screen and one for the Cab Home screen.

  • Home Layout is which column the device's compact card sits in: Off, Left, Middle or Right. Off keeps it away from Home entirely.
  • Home Order is where it sits among the others in that column. Lower numbers come first. Leave it alone and devices fall into alphabetical order, so two you have not touched never swap places on you.

The full controls always remain on the Lighting and Climate tabs, whatever you choose here.

The Cab screen has one column

The Cab Home screen has a single column of cards beside the map, so Cab Home Layout only sets the order there: anything set to Left comes first, then Middle, then Right. Off still keeps a device off the Cab screen.

The van level is now a choice

The van level's bubble gauge used to appear on the Home screens on its own. It is now picked the same way as everything else, so you can put it where you want it or leave it off.

If your van had it before, it will not be there until you choose a column for it. The full park-up view on the Cab dashboard's Parking tab is unaffected.
