I have installed a helm x650 which has a great screen 1000nits. Runs on windows embedded. Works great in every respect but refuses to show altitude or height. Tried all the usual switching on and off, turning instruments off and on etc. any ideas?

If SkyDemon isn't showing altitude it's because the source device either isn't giving an altitude reading, or its altitude reading is not of sufficient quality and is being discarded.
