This is in the FAQ somewhere... The info setting is turned to a non-visuals setting so that the Empeg folks are absolved of legal obligation if you're staring at the visuals and you run off the road. I don't think they plan on changing that soon.

The workaround is to hold the "down" front panel button when you start up. The hijack modifications (see the Programming forum) have a hack to get around this limitation.

Almost all audio components with mesmerizing displays do something like this. GPS units do it as well.
