PAW units not "seeing" each other
« on: October 24, 2015, 10:33:55 am »
I have built 2 units and have carried out a small amount of testing indoors.
ADSB planes show clearly.
 I have also been able to see the  aircraft symbols displayed on each unit (P3i) planes.
 I am running SD on Ipad mini and Iphone all connect ok.
When testing indoors the units were about 15' apart at times a red plane (P3i) was displayed on both devices.
Now I am unable to see any P3i display.
Using the web interface I have set up master/slave logging on the ARF, I now have the units 50' apart in line of sight and have aSSRSSIS-061 aMMRSSIM-057 in the ARF logging.
 Why are the 2 units not "talking" ( no P3i planes on the display)
I am running latest software and have tried rebooting ipad/phone also reinstalled software on PAW, whats gone wrong? any ideas?

Thanks Brian

Hi Brian,

Might be a silly question, but you have taken each unit out of RSSI Master/Slave mode and set back to normal operating mode ?

In RSSI mode it sends special packets, rather than P3I packets

Thx

I have 2 units which I am more than happy with, when placed on the same window cill I lose both no RX when I move the units apart by the length of my house the burst into life. I am guessing a saturated RX stage on the ARF when to close.
