ODO_MARKER and DISTANCE_FEET are not supported by OR as far as I can see in the code. Where did you find info about them?

Just a thought on the above ODO_MARKER DIGITAL there is a space between MARKER and DIGITAL without quotes on ether side could that be causing it not to work, normally you would have either

"ODO_MARKER DIGITAL" or ODO_MARKER_DIGITAL as the normal way to display stuff

just an idea to try

In the HUD under Dispatcher there is a field called TRAVELLED xxxM.
This would be better than the ODO.
Can this be included in the cabView?
