#PLANEPLOTTER DELAY START AFTER DUMP1090 CODE#
In this release, XXnnnn entries will also not be created if the received code matches the code corresponding to the altitude of any Mode-S aircraft currently being received.Īdditionally, for those XXnnnn entries for which the code has a corresponding altitude if considered to be Mode-C, that altitude is now shown in the routes column of the View.Aircraft window. Since XXnnnn targets are only passed through the sharing system when they have an Mlat position, this service will ensure that active squawks will, where possible, be located and therefore shared.Īdditions and changes – Planeplotter version 6.5.2.3Ĭurrently, if enabled, PlanePlotter will create dummy hex codes in the form XXnnnn for any squawk codes that do not correspond to a known Mode-A squawk from a Mode-S/ADS-B aircraft that is currently being received. This release includes support for selected users to be nominated as SMUAs, which will monitor a range of Mode-A squawks in their area to initiate an Mlat of there is no associated position. To accompany that new features, there is a new noun in the conditional expression vocabulary "message count"/"msg", which can be used in a condex to display only those aircraft with more (or less) than a certain number of messages. It may be particularly useful to help to decide if an XXnnnn ping (Mode-A) is real (many pings) or erroneous (few pings), since there is otherwise no error checking on those pings on which to base confidence. If the aircraft times out, the counter will reset. This simply counts up the number of messages from each aircraft since first reception in the current session.

The View.Aircraft display and the "a" window now include a message counter for each aircraft.


It's just that I also feed FA, FR24 and ADSBxchange from the same Pi and don't want to upset anything.
#PLANEPLOTTER DELAY START AFTER DUMP1090 UPGRADE#
I know AirNav are aware of this issue but on previous form I am not confident they care enough to fix it so again I don't want to go chasing issues down after upgrading my feeder Pi.įinally does the upgrade alter any other config files that may upset my perfectly working, rock stable system after upgrading? The issue I am referring to is the failure of the AirNav version to start after being issued sudo systemctl restart rbfeeder although it does start after a reboot. Seems to me the small incremental version number would suggest not a huge difference as it's not even a point upgrade but I wanted to ask the question for peace of mind.Īlso have AirNav fixed their MLAT bug yet as I don't want to have to start chasing issues after upgrading. I'm always a little paranoid and over-cautious when upgrading the Pi running my Virtual Radar setup and so I was wondering exactly what the differences between these two versions are?
