iFly GPS Forum

Hello,

I am trying to get my new Raspberry PI Stratux ADSB receiver to work with iFlyGPS on my Android tablet, but so far I’m not having much luck.  FYI the tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8”.  

I can connect the tablet to the Stratux WiFi signal just fine.   If I then open Chrome and go to 192.168.10.1, I see the Stratux configuration page.   It shows “connected” and under “traffic” I see a dozen planes in my area, with GPS coordinates listed.  So the Stratux itself is working, and talking to the tablet. 

But if I open iFlyGPS, and go to Menu -> Setup -> ADS/B, it always says “Waiting”.  Under “Change Selected Device” neither Auto-Detect nor Stratux/FlightBox seem to work - I get the message “selected device not connected” under the Detailed Form option.

Any thoughts on how to get iFly to connect to the Stratux?  Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply...

Nope, When I try that sequence I just get "Selected device is not connected"

Went looking in other places in the forum.  Found this answer from someone who had a connection, updated and subsequently had a connection problem.  I checked my S2, sure enough, it had power saving mode on.  I turned it off, and Yahoo!  the Stratux connected.
