Hi Tim,

Ever since the latest SD update where the connection to PF was moved from CONNECTIONS to GO FLYING, I can't get my PF Core to connect to SD and I have to revert to Use Location Services and the iPad's internal GPS.

I have checked the PF Core device and get the customary orange LED for 20 seconds and then the steady green LED which tells me that it has booted correctly and is receiving GPS signals. On the iPad wi-fi status icon, it shows that I am connected to the Butterfly Connect.

I have confirmed SETTINGS - CONNECTIVITY - FLARM and when I select GO FLYING - USE FLARM, I get the message: "Please wait while a connection is established to your external device" but after about 10 seconds I always get the message: "Failed to establish a connection with Butterfly Connect."

I have tried it with airplane mode off (wi-fi still selected) and on; I have deleted SD from my iPad and reloaded it; I have reconfigured the PF Core with my USB stick but all to no avail. My iPad is connected to the Butterfly Connect wi-fi and the PF Core is receiving GPS data but it's just not happening on SD and only seems to have started after the last update.

Do you have any suggestions, please?

Paul

I've had a problem getting SD to stay connected to PF for more than a few minutes (between 7 and 20) using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 or Tab 4 (Android), but have twice run it for over an hour without problem on an iPad (IOS8). Once the connection goes the only way of resolving the issue is resetting the Wifi. LX Avionics (PF dealer) told me that they've had a problem with PF and Android (something to do with update rate, I think the chap said).

Hi Tim,

Please find enclosed a couple of screenshots of contacts that have shown up on my 10" inch iPad running SD after being detected by my aircraft's PF Core. I'm not sure that they show fine detail but you can probably see that the Flarm contact (a glider) has almost totally illegible distance and height info due to the font size. Similarly, the transponder equipped contact is shown by white ring (I.e it was non- threatening) but agin, the distance info is just too small to be read. If it wasn't for the optional audio licence I have with my PF Core, I probably wouldn't have noticed the Flarm contact.

Is there any way the font size can be made bigger please? If you would like the pics to be sent to you via email, please let me know. Thanks.

Paul
