Indefinitely even if you turn it off and turn it back on with the short press menu button it will stay in parking mode until you short press the menu button again to put yourself back in Blue mode.
Well, I for one am at least glad we have options.
Hello all
I used one of these 4 port push button USB switches

And there are also ones that look like this for the style conscious

The advantage of these is when you push the button to select the USB drive that you want, it turns off the others,
Thus no chance of having the ALP CPU reading two (or more) sets of data
Hook up is very simple
Any 4 USB drives go in the Type A ports and the Type B port connects (via B-A adapter) to the ALP CPU
You can even plug your update USB in when needed.
And no soldering required
The real beauty is that if you drive around with Defense Mode loaded in your CPU and only a Parking Detect USB in the switch, a push of the button males it impossible for a LEO to get you to switch back to Defense mode.
Then you simply reload after the interview.
Hope I have not confused any one
And hope further this has been helpful

I've been looking for a switch like that! Thanks!
Yes, I like those, but they don't make a stealthly install easy. You have to have the whole thing out in the open and that's what I'm trying to not do. With the way I'm setting mine up, you can hide the hub and the only thing visible will be a very innocuous switch.
Very good idea , i bought this one few months ago and i did not succeed for some unknown reason ,
i used straight from the box , no mod , but the cpu did not read well the one switched ON , like if all the usb kept
secretly connected even when their switch were at OFF ?
So i forgot the idea , but i keep a ''green'' usb at hand .

"the only thing visible will be a very innocuous switch."
Good point
I was fortunate
The switch box fits snugly between the right side of the driver's seat and the center console.
And low enough to be out of site.
It's velcroed in place to the console and stays put when adjusting the seat
Hello Tman
If you want to get back to the switch idea I think between the latest upgrade, and rezin8's & my differing methods you have some useful choices at hand
I gotta tell you that reading your ideas in a thread way back awhile ago is what got me started on playing with the idea myself.
Thanks for the inspiration
