  • This video will show you how to customize the home screen and info widget on the PCM of a 2020 Porsche 992 Carrera S. Customizing the home screen is important, as provides easy access to various vehicle controls while driving. This process can be done on the PCM of 2020+ 911s, 2019+ Cayennes, 2018+ Panameras and 2019+ Macans. Basically any PCM screen that is in a wide screen format and does not have color home screen graphics. If you have color home screen graphics you have the newer PCM software and can refer to my more recent videos.

    What a clear, concise overview of this feature! My wife has had a Macan S for 3 years and I noticed how utterly cluttered her home screen was - with a bunch of useless junk. I will use this to create a couple of clean , useful home screens for her. Thank you very much!

    Paul, your 8 minute video taught me more about the PCM than all my reading and other Porsche aids. Please do more as the new 992 is complicated until you reach a certain level of understanding.

    Excellent video! You have saved me from searching through manuals. I didn't even know the PCM could be configured in the ways you described. Please do more videos on the 911. Thank-you!

    This is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to favorites list, immediate close-up of what I’m playing, and a navigation panel. My dealer said I couldn’t make this happen. Thanks

    Paul good video but it isn't working? I had set my screen with a medium size tile on the right with two small tiles beneath it. On one of these tiles it would give me a picture of the album cover of the song being played. I want to keep that and like your idea of NAV in one tile and the on/off engine switch in the third tile is good because it would be a faster way to turn it off from the way I now do it. What's happening is before when I would touch the arrow in front of these tiles my display of "favorite" channels would shrink allowing me to see the content of these tiles. For some reason now when I touch the arrow it shows the a/c settings? I can't eliminate that info with is on one large size tile. Can you help? So frustrating I can't fix it and this just started on it's own. Please help. Thanks Rick.

    Do you know of any button that allows you to scroll or cycle through your favorite list on Sirius XM radio or the media section? I know you can change the station by selecting each on the screen. The programmable button on the 992 steering wheel appears to only allow you to move to the next channel/station or previous station, not next favorite. Thank-you.

    Why does the Apple CarPlay symbol (the arrow inside the circle) often covers over the album art or the selected stations? This never happened with their previous radios. No one at the dealership has been able to explain it.

      @@paulsteinbruner2129 Paul, thank you. It seems you can always pause and rewind the music if the Apple CarPlay logo is there or not. You just can’t go “live” if there is no Apple CarPlay logo. I guess my complaint is why sometimes the satellite stations are live when you select them and...sometimes not.
