Love this product more and  more.  I was using the PA through my Dynon SV system although the display is pants when compared to the SkyDemon display and display of traffic conflicts.
I Was getting a few glider alerts as well on Saturday via the OGN which was even better.

So im now using the PA connected to SD using the PA connection  in the connectivity settings on SD. Ive noticed if the SD connectivity is set to online mode for data  the popup keeps coming up at the bottom saying loss of data, although SD still works fine and if I touch the screen it goes away for a few minutes. .When i set this connectivity to offline mode  it works fine and no popups.

Any suggestions?

I dont think this happened when i was using Flarm mode

suggest you set connectivity to "Live Data when Planning"
that wya you can see weather, NOTAMs etc while on the ground
but stops it trying to connect once you're out playing :)

Hi crisisguy
The reason SkyDemon is producing this message is because it thinks it has an internet connection.
in version 20170721, this should be fixed, can I ask :-

Which version of PilotAware are you running
Which kernel does it report

Both of these can be found on the PilotAware Home page.

Thx
Lee

I'm just an interested party following all the PAW info, but Lee said

and I note you have an earlier version (20170619). Maybe that's the snag.
