General Discussion / New software I-Grid

« on: May 09, 2022, 08:18:40 pm »

I understand from the PA website that a new software is coming soon. It appears an extra USB port will be required on the Rosetta. I have an aircrew connected to the spare USB port and therefore no free port. Just wondering if it will be possible to still use  this new addition to this excellent system.

Mode S is not showing on Vector. Pilotaware and Skyecho2 giving reasonable results. No complaints from ATC about my Garmin transponder. Some colleagues with the same problem. We are based in the East Midlands. Any help much appreciated

Hi Peter,
Been down to the airfield today and checked my connections etc. Took some screen shots as you recommended while on the ground. (Didn’t want to run my battery down to much) Any comments greatly appreciated
Regards Dave

Hi Peter,
No problem with the delay. It is bank holiday after all and I know how busy you must all be. Your team is helping my friends set up a station at Leicester in the very near future I believe.
Thanks for explaining pigtail and SDR for me. The 1090 antenna is mounted vertically!.
I will try your suggestion and move SE2 to the rh rear window and check vector again post change.
I’ll look at all the connections again sometime this week and report back after further flights.
Much appreciated
Dave

Hi Geoffrey
Just looking at your post. I seem to have a similar problem and set up too yours. I have a PAW Rosetta, recently installed SE2 and mode s Garmin 328. Good results with PAW but none ADSB. SE2 also not brilliant. My aeroplane is metal low wing (PA28). Hex code 401C1B. Check my vector pole results over 3 flights. Pete is helping me this problem under another thread.
Regards Dave

 Thanks for your very quick response Peter. On the 29 March I only flew a few circuits at EGBN.(after lockdown).On the 30th of March I flew to Gamston and back. On the third of April (yesterday) I flew for an hour around north Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. As far as I know my transponder (Garmin 328) is working ok as I’ve had no complaints from EMA radar.
My hex code is 401C1B. Is it possible for you to check Vector on my behalf. Yesterday shows much more activity.
You are correct about my set up. The 1090 antenna is mounted perpendicular on the front glare shield with very clear view of the sky. However the dipole aerial is mounted on the right hand side window(high up).
I’ll check all the connections again as you suggest and take a screen shot of thePAW traffic screen over a longer period of time.What do you mean by pigtail,SDR.?
Kind regards Dave.

Ok Peter. Sorry about that. I also seem to have a similar problem as Geffory C in a recent post.
 No ADSB traffic seen on vector over 3 Separate flights over 3 different days. Today I was flying for almost an hour north of EMA around Trent and Gamston VORs at around 2300 feet. I will try and send some screen shots of Vector later. Pilotaware and Skyecho2 look ok.
