Yes it can be done.
Aux is meant to display if the AUX has something plugged in but it never worked on mine so turned it off.

RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Badenj - 24:th-Jan-2017
Just to let you know rusty I had already activated it lol
It came up as distance to destination which counts down till you reach zero.
But if you leave it as 0 it acts as the trip. Lol

TBH it depends on a few factors, one what engine you have what cruise control switch you have etc. there are also other things that need to be taken in account footlights TPMS etc etc.
It's not a simple plug and play job and it's not just a case of programming them.
I'm the only person who knows how to do it that is willing to do it, once I've done my part it then becomes plug & play to your car.

That would be a new cluster with the larger display.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - courtneyg - 11:th-Mar-2017
Ah so the display itself would need to be replaced? Is that a difficult job?

RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - zzattack - 29:th-Jun-2017
Rusty do you know if anyone tried dumping the firmware on the upper combi display?
What's involved with the IPC upgrade besides rebuilding the EEPROM?
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Rusty2009 - 30:th-Jun-2017
Yep I've got loads of dumps, you can't put onto a up level display it won't work.
I'm not saying anything publicly how its done, no one would help me when I was looking into it so I'm not going to talk about it in public.
Even if I did share the info TBH there would have to be a very strict understanding that the info is not to passed on to anyone in public or private.

RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Maniacu - 26:th-Apr-2018
Morning guys..I'm new around here and i just buy a little astra Sri from 2010.
I have the a little question I have the option with full parking assist on the car but when they are activated I don't see them in the dash I just here them sound. I have the big screen and the options are the same like Tucpal.
It's anybody around stoke to help me change the options from the dash ?
Thanx
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Rusty2009 - 27:th-Apr-2018
Sounds like it's not been setup properly or is they are aftermarket sensors?
To check the IPC is setup properly it would have to be done with MDI.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Maniacu - 27:th-Apr-2018
I think there are the original sensors. Can you tell me where can i setup them ?
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - gazz292 - 27:th-Apr-2018
Wondering about this on a meriva,
i've been playing with up-level ipc's, when i had one off a 2013 meriva, i corrupted the eeprom and it gave me every single menu.. a jump start one etc,
But it had things i liked, showing the speed the cruise control was set to, having 2 bits of info on one screen (instant and average mpg) etc
But the 2010 ipc i have froma euro meriva is very basic, just the 7 screens, and 3 on the vehicle menu. and i've selected every option i have available on the Tech2's program and setup and config modes,
I'm wondering, as i use globaltis 32b which has the software upto 2012, could that be the issue? i need to get later software for the IPC somehow?
or do i need a later IPC to get the extra screens?
I've also just re-instated the front and rear park pilot on my car, i set it to present in the BCM and the IPC... hoping the IPC one would get me the display of the sensors... but nope,
only thing i got new was when i added the TIM, and i get an option to turn the park assist sensors off on the radio, or have them on, or on with the towbar inserted.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Rusty2009 - 28:th-Apr-2018
Do you have a parking sensor button on the dash?
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - gazz292 - 28:th-Apr-2018
I do, it works... press it and when i slow to below 5mph, the buttons light comes on and front sensors are working, same after reversing for a short while fronts are on till i go over 5mph,
but i only get the beeps, higher pitched one for front sensors,
i did kinda expect the beeps to be played over the speakers, as in rear sensors play over the rear speakers, and left sensor beeps louder on left speaker, but i guess it's not that clever.
only thing i get in the IPC display is '' parking assist off ! " when i press the front button again. and occasionally i get a 'service parking assist' i need to do a DTC read, but my Tech2 is at home and i'm on the other side of the country with my GF... but i wonder if it might be the rear sensors as the outer ones arent sitting out flush with the bumper, they sit in a little.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Rusty2009 - 29:th-Apr-2018
No all the warning sounds etc come through the right dash tweeter (on the J) or left one for LHD.
As for the display I'm guessing you have set the option up setup & config of the IPC?
I know some have no visual display, some have front only & others have front and rear, it's a very strange setup by Vauxhall.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Jpbroad1970 - 29:th-Apr-2018

Hi there
My car only has the very basic display in the middle. I don't even have average MPG, real time MPG, or miles left on what is in the tank or miles on a full tank. Can mine be activated to get all this info, I know my Mokka had all of this on the small screen.
Any help appreciated.

You can get a few extras on the small screen but not many.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Rusty2009 - 20:th-Dec-2020
It's for Navigation units.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - Rusty2009 - 24:th-Dec-2020
There is newer software but it costs and means flashing the opcom into a HQ-clone of course this depends which op-com you have.
In terms of doing the menus though you can use 2014 to turn on/off the menus.
RE: HOW-TO Turn on hidden options on IPC (DASH) - meanless - 25:th-Jul-2021
Hello everyone,
Something weird happened to me:
I had all the same screens, that are in first post, plus Eco menu, but wanted more.
I used my unoriginal Op-Com, added "present" on some options, that I wanted like shown in same post, and now only those new options active. I can see battery voltage, timer, etc. But all original "divided" screens are now gone. And also there is no more Eco menu at all. No upshifting warnings, nothing.
When I go to Eco menu, screen just turns off completely.
I tried to go back to original settings, putting everything to "present" and to "not present", but nothing brings back the original screens.
Maybe someone can help me out and tell what happened, and how to fix it? It's really annoying...
