MEM1/2/3 and Zoom Button [Not implemented at this time]

Mem1/2/3:
I've looked in the new manual and around the forums but I can't find the answer: How do the Mem buttons work? I feel like this is something obvious that I'm missing. The manual just describes what they do but not how to actually store anything for recall. Can someone help me out? I'm having no luck.

Zoom button:
All of the other CCP buttons are mappable but the zoom button is not. Any chance that it might be added to the MVAMS mapping utility sometime?

1 Push the quick access button (MEM 1, MEM 2, or
MEM 3) for more than 3 seconds to store the upper
format, lower format, TERR/RDR/LX overlay state,
and TFC overlay state.
2 Verify that the message STORE COMPLETE shows
on the MFD.
3 Push and release the quick access button in less
than 3 seconds to recall the stored MFD format.
4 Verify the message RECALL COMPLETE shows on
the MFD.

Thank you! Can't wait to try this out. I tried to hold the button before but I evidently wasn't holding it long enough. Good to know!

Haven't had a chance to test this yet. The last word I had on this it wasn't implemented although the buttons were in MVAMS. Curious to know if it does work.

Tried it now and I did not get any of the messages when pressing the MEM buttons and there was no change.

Thanks for the feedback. I will poke the developers to either remove the buttons from the MVAMS or see if it was supposed to be implemented but forgotten. I will ask if the zoom button will be implemented in MVAMS also.

It is being worked on as it will be in the P180E as well. I can't give a timeline as to when. Sorry I can't tell you more that that. Stay tuned.
