Azimuth and distance display

[lucaberta]

Hello,

I wonder whether the fact that I see nothing in the azimuth and distance columns is related to some errors in the configuration of my modesmixer2 instance, or maybe not?

Check the attached picture to better understand what I mean.

Is anyone seeing data in those two columns?

Thanks,

Luca

What is your modesmixer2 command line?

The lack of distance and bearing suggests modesmixer2 does not know your location.

thank for your reply Ian, as you can see I have the coordinates in my command line parameters:

modesmixer2 —-location 46.48:6.37 --inSerial /dev/ttyUSB0:3000000:hardware --web 8080 --outServer beast:30005

Any other idea what might be happening?

Is this enough for FlightRadar24 and FlightAware feeding? Or do I need to add any other parameters for MLAT?

As you can see I am using a ModeS beast connected via USB to my RPi2.

Thanks,

Luca

Not sure if you have copied that command line but the first parameter "location" should be --location. You seem to have something slightly different.

Ian, you're a star!

I have used Evernote to copy-paste the command line, and it did turn the double dashes into a long dash, which is good when writing documents, but bad in command-line scripts...

Of course I did not noticed it, that's why I needed a different set of eyes.

It is now working well, thanks a lot!

Bye, Luca
