There are people who will not invest in PAW. These are the people I want to avoid so Mode C is a winner.
I have 2 new PAW's with Pi 2, I am still using an engineering version with mode C/S detection and am happy with the results.

General Discussion / New licence for a Raspberry Pi Upgrade.

« on: July 08, 2016, 11:55:49 am »

I bought a Complete kit and a shield to use on my old Pi. I registered the years licence that came with the shield.

I now want to swap my old Pi for a new Pi 2 what licence do I need to buy to get the new Pi 2 up and running to the full facilities?
Many thanks

General Discussion / Mode C and S

« on: June 28, 2016, 07:23:39 pm »

Lee,

Over the last 3 days I have flown 13hrs 45mins in some of our PA31's. I have been using my old engineering version of PAW which detected both Mode C and S and gives coloured aircraft warnings (I do have 2 new PAW's a Classic and a bridge, but for the time being they will stay in the office as the mode C is so good on the old version we don't want to fly without it).
The PAW has been flying in parallel with our £2000 Portable Power flarm our belief is the PAW performs as well if not better than the Flarm.
My plea then is for Mode C to be introduced into the New PAW the green amber and red warnings be reintroduced for the mode C and Mode S warnings.

Many Thanks

Steve

p.s. Great work.

I installed my new bridge on my old Pi Board. I applied for my licence and ran it. Subsequently I have upgraded to  Pi2 and re installed the software (the latest) have i just ruined my licence or do I have to buy a new one?

Mode 'A' just a range ring no height

Our Portable Flarm displays mode 'C' as a range ring and a a plus and minus Height difference.

There are some Bluetooth audio transmitters available cheaply. They are self powered or run off USB. Add one of these and bingo a bluetooth PAW.

Lee.

I am fighting the PAW Corner but there are people around me who are pushing for Flarm (sorry for swearing) as it has functional Mode C detection. We have 24 Aircraft in the fleet. some will obviously not need anything as they have TAS.
Clearly the price difference £200 against £2000 is not putting them off.

Auto Update?

My home network is not 198.162.1.XXX but another number 198.162.X.XXX
I am guessing that is going to scupper my auto update.

Hello,

In the previous version of the software (engineering release) the mode C/S traffic the aircraft icon changed colour green through to red.
I notice on my new classic the aircraft Icon stays white.
in the traffic listing in the browser I note the signal strength box changes colour with reception strength.

Have I not set my new unit up correctly.

Steve

p.s. I will still be using my old engineering version in parallel with my new classic as the Mode C works well and a great catch all.

I have read other posts ref Mode C. We are desperate for Mode C. the engineering version of last year had mode C we loved its functionality.
