EDITED RESPONSEOK Ian, apologies for my earlier post - I was trying to deal with about 5 issues at once. You are of course correct
,
Jerry - I
thought I had dealt with the 'Range' issue by advising you to alter your Positional Contacts configuration to 'Display All', but now realise I didn't fully explain the
reasons and implications of your settings or in effect WHY I asked you to make those changes.
As Ian has said, setting 'Display Positional Contacts' anywhere less than 'Display All'
automatically restricts the passing of Positional Aircraft Data to the Nav System if the aircraft are outside your selected range - in your case 'Less Than 10Km' - hence all the ADSB Traffic (shown as Mode CSA on your traffic screen) which is
all outside your pre-selected 'Less than 10Km' range limit is automatically excluded from the Nav System Display (and greyed out on your traffic screen to indicate that it has been filtered out by your selection). Unfortunately I completely overlooked the significance of the data being greyed out in your Traffic screenshot. If I had taken the time to explained the reasons better, I might have realised my mistake - it's obviously one of those days - thank you Ian for pointing out my error!!
Jerry - You also need to be aware that PilotAware will
only pass Data on
'Bearingless' (Mode CS (i.e. Mode S) or Mode C)
Traffic to the Nav system
if the Signal Strength (SIG) exceeds preset alert triggers associated with your selected 'Range' setting (previously 'Short Range'). From memory, this would require a minimum 'SIG' of something like 150 or greater for a 'First Level - Traffic Notice' warning, with greater SIG levels generating higher level 'Traffic Alert' and 'Traffic Danger' warnings if the other aircraft gets closer to you.
Hence none of the traffic you are 'seeing' in the Traffic Screen is appearing on SD due to a combination of selecting 'Bearingless' traffic at 'Short Range' and 'Known Position Traffic' only when at 'Less than 10Km'.It is still worth checking your SkyDemon settings though. Set them all wide until you are sure you are seeing traffic then reduce the warning ranges/relative altitudes
gently - a bit at a time - until you are comfortable that the information the system(s) are giving you meets your own personal needs.
This should solve your problem - please let us know.
Best Regards and Apologies for any confusion
Peter
