I need help with the Task Settings screen and how I can make it produce the task view I want. I'm running 3.5.0 Beta 14Jun07 on my Tungsten T. Firstly, my...
Hello Tony, I'll try, but I'm not expert. SP possibly didn't change automatically because it didn't think you had started the task - there is usually a loud...
Er, belay the waffle about the control lines - they are actually used when you have control point which guide you around prohibited areas like airspace Sorry...
Hi Derrick, Thanks for the speedy response. Perhaps my note was misunderstood as I have been doing exactly as you write and, I'm still baffled!! On the...
Hi all, I think I may have solved the mystery, at least in-part if not in whole. In order to get the view I want I have to have "ALL" task points selected on...
If you don't check the "Auto" check boxes then you have to set the line direction and in that mode you have the choice of Magnetic or True for the compass rose...
... Well, according to SeeYou - the task was never started, but the trace shows conclusively that you went round all the TP's as required. Weird stuff - this...
Hi Tony, Just a couple of additional points. The task:ALL,1,2,3 settings on the Map Settings screen only control what is displayed on the map. It has no effect...
Hi, I have two different Tungsten T's, and both seem to exhibit a lot of variation in the digitizer settings, to the point where I have a lot of problems...
Hello Frank, I also have two T's, one I've just recently bought second hand which seems to work fine even on sunny days (mind you, this _is_ the UK, so "sunny"...
Hi everybody ! I had a BT GPS (HiCom 405) with SP on a T5. This unit is now dead. I decided to get a Palm Navigation Companion (craddle with power and built-in...
Philippe, I can find the unit by doing searches on the internet and find the software manual. However, I can't find any specific details about what interface...
Mark, I've tried all the available NMEA speeds. No success.. The brand of the GPS craddle is Kirrio, but company seems not to exist anymore, at least under...
Ok, then try the USB option again. I have a kirrio cradle as well. It is designed to work with a Tungsten E. For you it must set the NMEA settings to "USB"...
Greetings, I have two Palms set up for use with SP. An m125 and a Tungsten T. I wear SunTigers protective sunglasses when soaring. Doing a comparison on the...
Would it be possible to add a quick help feature to SP as a reminder to the functions of the soft- and hard buttons in the various modes? Its probably age...
What about your Treo? :) Just kidding. ... I've noticed the same thing with the T + orange lenses. I have to flip off the glass to read the screen. It is...
I taped some notes to the inside of my cockpit. I also used a high quality label maker to create some stick on labels for the Palm such as "zoom out" and...
Thanks Sarah, You are confirming my ground test. I really like my SunTigers and would be very reluctant to give them up. Especially since I use the half-moon...
Hello, I have been meaning to put a system together using an Etrex Vista and a tungsten, but I like the idea of a bluetooth GPS and my tungsten has BT so I...
Why not just use the vario's seperate display? So simple to set up. Unless you are wanting netto information input to SoarPilot's glide calculations (cruise...
Hello Doug, Thanks for the reply. What I would like to do would be to only have the PDA out in the slipstream. With Bluetooth GPS I can have it mounted...
I've been flying a lot of dual lately, and have noticed a 2-3 knot discrepancy between what SP says the wind speed is and what WinPilot thinks it is, it seems...
Would that just be a function of sampling rate, a different method of calculation or more simply, just the fact the wind changes even over short periods and...
I think with SP you can't do that. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Your best bet would likely be to streamline the vario for the HG. SP as it is now...
I'm using polarized clip-ons for my "pop bottle bottom" prescription glasses. (yes polarized is very bad I know) with my "T" which means I have to flip them...
I just looked at the features of my Etrex and I noticed it has a compass and a Barometric altimiter. If that is the case can the barometric altimiter be used...
Yes, SP will read the barometic altimeter data from your Etrex. On the NMEA/Port screen, just sect the Alt Source to be "Garmin". Once that is selected you...
