That isn’t my cluster @Ads_Essex its a clip from a video. Menu’s should appear the same on colour or B&W clusters what is in the menu depends on spec.
Do you have the menu in the cluster to select/deselect it?
Yes it is based on driving style as to when the alert appears.
I have activated it in the BCM/gateway eeprom but just now trying to activate the menu in the cluster

Yes I have it and find its useless. Comes on at random times normal driving style etc.
Would be interesting how the warning is activated

Mine seems to be after 2 hours.
I've driven none stop for a lot longer than that, and only ever seen it come up once. I'm sure it mentioned something about taking a break and having a coffee.
No sure exactly which inputs are being used? . . . . . but here is some more info:

Here you go, T6 specific . . . .
The driver alert system (DAS)
Between and 5 and 25 % of all accidents are caused by fatigue. Driving when fatigued is a cause of more severe
accidents than other accident causes.
The driver alert system (DAS) is a convenience function that supports the driver and has a preventative effect by
detecting the driver's fatigue level.
Function
Fatigue is detected by evaluating the steering
behaviour. If the system detects that the driver is at
risk of falling asleep, there is an acoustic warning as
well as a text prompt to take a break displayed on the
multifunction display of the dash panel insert.
In addition to the steering behaviour, data regarding
the driving situation (vehicle speed, accelerator pedal
operation, use of turn indicators, time of day, duration
of driving, etc.) and the driver's activity operating the
settings and comfort elements (air conditioning
system, use of telephone, etc.) are recorded and sent
via the CAN bus to the diagnostic interface for the
data bus where the data is evaluated. The software is
integrated in the gateway.
Operation and display
Operation
Activation and deactivation is via the dash panel
insert. The function is available from a speed of
65 km/h onwards. Following activation, the system
requires about 15 minutes to collect sufficient data on
which to draw a conclusion about the driver's fatigue
as driving continues.
Display
If driver fatigue is detected, a message is displayed in the dash panel insert and a gong sounds for 5 seconds. The
message and gong are repeated if the driver does not take a break within the next 15 minutes. After this repetition
there is no further warning.

Yes I have VCDS, what do you need?
an auto scan and admap for BCM & gateway of pos? Where about a are you? Tbh I think the info needed would only be readable with VCP.
So reading all that, and baring in mind all the miles I do and the fact i've only seen it once in 60,000 miles, and the hours I spend driving at a time, does this officially mean I am a good driver?
Maybe, but if you want confirmation.....
Get a VW connect OBD2 plug and it will tell you how good your driving is...

got mine from ebay for £20

Same here, often drive for periods exceeding 4 hours non-stop. Reckon it has only flashed up once in 2 years.
The same.
I'm in Lincolnshire. I can send an autoscan no problem, but you'd have to explain the other bit. I don't have VCP.
I haven't seen it working as I turned it off in the settings when I first picked up the van.
