Why does Radar 360 not save list settings on exit?

Hi Peter S,

I assume you are talking about running VRS from the ‘Radar’ tab on your OGN-R?

If so, it normally does retain your settings between sessions, though I have noticed that they seem to be reset to a default by PAW OGN-R software auto-updates.

I think this has something to do with the fact that the settings are unique to the device you were using when you set them - i.e. you can set up several devices from your Ground Station, each with it’s own user-selectable settings and all running independently.

Regards

Peter R

I am having a similar issue, if I set up things like range rings or different info in the aircraft tabs (such as type etc) then it works until I refresh it or switch tabs, when all my changes are lost, I cannot even get it to save pressure in Hpa rather than the American inches of mercury!
What needs to be done to make the changes stick?

This is not a problem caused by updates.
I too am noticing that the OGNR radar screen is defaulting to presets after being closed and re-opened every time and it does not matter whether you start it from the Radar button in the status page or from a saved bookmarked shortcut.
Every time it is opened it reverts to a pre-determined set of values, even if you have a session opened and reset to your preferences and you open another copy it opens with the defaults.  Something has changed as this did not happen previously.

UPDATE:

I have become aware that this problem with the ATOM/GRID VRS screen reverting to default settings is only happening with my Windows desktop PC.  It seems to retain the settings I have chosen in my android devices.  This is still the same since the overnight software update to 20200713.

Edit:  I think this thread should be in the OGN-R PilotAware topic.
