Using SkyDemon v3.15.1 on an IPad Ai:r 2 IOS 14.4.1, linked via Bluetooth to Bose A20’s and PilotAware Rosetta, I had no audio warnings.

I had checked before leaving home via simulate and all worked ok. After I landed, whilst still at the airfield, I did ‘Go Fly’ which showed other traffic ok in the radar but no audio warnings. Tried simulate there again and all ok, but when in flying mode no audio.
Back home again now and simulate still gives me audio warnings, but I have no warnings in go flying as nothing close enough to warn me about on the ground, so can’t easily test.

Any ideas ? Comms to to headset is obviously ok as it works in simulate, so I’m assuming something is different in SkyDemon from an audio perspective in GoFly mode.
Kind regards
Darren

Dorgand,

I think you are getting a bit confused. Your iPad would be (or at least should have been) connected by WiFi to Rosetta - which then feeds position and traffic data to the iPad and hence to SkyDemon via the PilotAware WiFi link. SkyDemon then uses this data to provide your Navigation position (provided you have selected ‘Go Flying - Use PilotAware’). SD determines ITS OWN Positional Warnings (such as for Runway incursion and Airspace proximity) from its own database. It also uses the traffic data passed to it by PilotAware to generate ITS OWN ‘intelligent’ traffic alerts for known position traffic. It does NOT receive audio traffic warnings from PilotAware. (These are ONLY generated by PilotAware via its own Bluetooth or on the Rosetta’s Audio Output Socket).

You can connect your Bluetooth Headsets to EITHER PilotAware Rosetta (for PilotAware audio warnings) OR to SkyDemon via your iPad, for SkyDemon Audio Warnings, but NOT TO BOTH AT THE SAME TIME. You could in theory use an Audio Mixer to combine the two audio feeds - but you would then need to add a Bluetooth transmitter to the output from the Mixer and connect your headset directly to that Bluetooth source - which I have never tried. I personally use a hard-wired Connection from both Rosetta and SkyDemon via an audio mixer to obtain these combined alerts, which are then fed by hard-wire to my headsets via my intercom.

I hope this helps clarify the setup, though it doesn’t explain why you are not getting audio alerts from SkyDemon in ‘Live Flying Mode’ . I note that you say you HAVE checked and selected ‘Produce Speech for Warnings’ in SkyDemon / Navigation Options.

Hi Peter,

Hi Darren,

All understood. Sorry, I HAD read the bit about your previous (wired) PAW audio use and tried to edit my post to reflect this, but was caught by the ‘can’t re-post (or edit) within 10 minutes’ time-bar.

Just to be completely clear - Are you saying you ARE getting SD audio on your A20s via Bluetooth when you select ‘Simulated flight’ both in the aircraft and at home, Just not when you select ‘Go Flying - Use PilotAware’ (or ‘Go Flying - Use GDL90 Compatible Device’ if you have this option checked in Third Party Options in SD)?
