Steps to activate the DPF % screen

I have the DPF % screen activated on my 2019 F350 and need to get the steps to activate it to give to the dealer tech when my truck comes in next week.
Has anyone activated it for a 2022 Superduty? If so, what were the steps you took and what did you change to activate it?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Pat

The tech should not need the customer to tell them how. They should know how to do it already.

My dealer tech tried for about 15 minutes and couldn’t find it.

Agreed, but I have always found it easier to give them a cheat sheet. It is more efficient for me. They appreciate it and are willing to do it for free once I provide the details.
I have a good dealer, but typically have to educate them from time to time to get exactly what I want.....

I'm not sure if anyone is using IDS on here, so a how-to would be using Forscan. I'm not sure how many dealership techs are using Forscan. Hopefully someone with a '22 will confirm, I have read some on here with '22's saying many of the changes that are on the 20-21 spreadsheet work. It might even be in the plain english settings.

I activated mine with Forscan but like someone already mentioned, that's different than IDS. Why not do it yourself? Forscan is easy to learn and is an awesome tool to have.

For mobile users, I have a 2022 F450.
