Is Garmin GLO (seen in Harry Mendelssohn's and other pilot shops) usable in conjunction with SkyDemon? Can anyone using it let us have their feedback please? Many Thanks.

So if you can use the GLO, which I have just updated to Glo firmware version 2.90. ..how do you do this?
‌
‌I have the iPAD Pro and SD 3.7.1.61
‌
‌
‌But I do not see the Glo listed under the Connectivity options 
‌The GLO is connected to the iPad via BT and it shows a solid blue light and is on the iPad BT connected device list. but it does not show ups in Sky Demon.
‌
‌How do you make it connect  ‌to Sky Demon once it is connected to the iPad ?
