Not seeing local traffic

[gcopter1]

I'm running PP version 6.4.6.6 using a Flight Aware Pro Stick on a Raspi3.

I am able to see shared traffic however, I'm unable to see mine.

Is there a setting I'm overlooking here?

Have you set PP to access the data from your Pro Stick?

Are you running PiAware as well?

PlanePlotter needs to access decoded data.  It won't work with an SDR on its own.  You need software to decode the SDR data.

Anmer,
Not sure what you mean by having PP access data from my ProStick. On the I/O settings, I selected RTL>RPI+Dump 1090.

Yes, running PiAware as well. It's on an sd card inserted in the Raspi3.

In PP try:

Options-> I/O Settings-> Mode-S/ADS-B-> RTL >RPI+Dump1090

Options-> Mode-S Receiver-> RTL dongle RPi Dump1090-> Setup TCP Client-> IP Address:30005

Where IP Address is the local IP Address of your RPi running PiAware.

For example, if the RPi has a local IP address of 192.168.1.50:

Options-> Mode-S Receiver-> RTL dongle RPi Dump1090-> Setup TCP Client-> 192.168.1.50:30005

Outstanding, that did the trick, thank you so much!

[Anmer]

Great.  Glad it worked for you.

Just out of curiosity, wanting to learn here, the 30005, is that a port number or part of the ip address?

If it is a port number, is this a standard port number of PP?
What role does that number play in PP?

[Anmer]

The IP address is identifying the device on your local network, in this case your RPi.

The port number is a unique sub-address where the RPi software, in this case PiAware, has made available decoded data.  The RPi software can designate numerous ports where various data output can be available.

By following my instructions you've told PP where to find the data it needs.

Not the most elegant explanation but it may make sense.

After looking over the link, sure does. Thanks.
